Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
It’s never a smooth road. I am sacrificing now so I enjoy my success in the future. Managing school, work, family, and a podcast is hectic. Many weekends include doing artist interviews or editing the show. I enjoy the challenges because I love doing podcasts. PoPolitickin is a baby that I been grooming and developing throughout the years.
Please tell us about your work.
Founded in 2008, by Chris “Po” Porter, Po Politickin is a “hip hop meets psychology brand,” designed to give talented artists more exposure. Po Politickin accomplishes this through a global presence, which includes a podcast, blog, and an online mixtape series. Focused on helping artists, no profits, authors, and others reach the masses, it’s a home for everything worth being discussed. “Po Politickin is deeper than music”, says Porter. “We view Po Politickin as a hip hop motivational brand. Our goals are for Po Politickin to help further the hip hop culture and educate our radio show’s listeners with content that is both entertaining and valuable. In every show, I attempt to leave at least one piece of knowledge that the listener could digest and use in their daily lives.”
If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
Yes, I would have focused more on my YouTube page, and made more video content. Everything else has been trial and error. I am enjoying the journey of discovering what works and what does not work.
