Life & Work with Sham Blak of Barrio Logan

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sham Blak.

Hi Sham, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I’ve been rhyming since I was 8 years old but it wasn’t until Nipsey Hussle passed away that I started to peruse music with a business mindset.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Smooth seas have never made skilled sailors, I believe any road traveled with intent will be bumpy but I believe that makes for a road worth traveling. Bumps in the road include learning the music business, understanding the music industry and holding onto the love of the music.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
Though I am the CEO of Wave in the Tide, I also pride myself on my rhyming ability. I think the way that I structure music, stories, and tie the clothing into visuals serves for great entertainment. I’m mostly known for music and clothing and my Spooky Gang affiliation. Spooky Gang a hip-hop horror rap group located in San Diego focuses on the gritty New York underground sound, I like to think that I bring a west coast/entrepreneurial flavor to that.

We’d love to hear about any fond memories you have from when you were growing up?
My favorite childhood memory is playing baseball at memorial park or skateboarding at the farmers market before it was turned into Walmart off of commercial.
