🎤 Feel free to share this with your friends. ISSA is more than just an awards show... it’s a movement, a family, and a year-round force driving independent artists toward greater visibility, growth, and success.

In this video, I’m sharing straight from the heart — why ISSA matters, how it’s built by artists for artists, and why this year’s event in Atlanta is going to be our most powerful yet.

✅ A free Summit with vital information and gifts
✅ A Grammy-winning producer
✅ Breakout sessions, networking, red carpet, and more — all centered around YOU.

We’re not just handing out trophies. We’re helping you build a career.
🔥 Watch the video. Feel the momentum. And if you haven’t already — pack your bags. Atlanta’s calling.

🏆 Recently, someone asked me for advice on whether or not they should attend various awards shows—big or small. Rather than give a yes or no answer, I encouraged them to evaluate the organization behind the event by asking a few key questions:

1. What does the organization do on a daily basis to support artists and contribute to the industry? Consistent engagement and genuine support often speak louder than a one-night event.

2. Are there tangible perks or benefits that come with a win? This could include press coverage, networking opportunities, future discounts, or complimentary admission to future events.

3. What do past winners say about their experience? Look at how winning impacted their careers—did it open doors, provide meaningful exposure, or lead to further opportunities?

If you can’t find clear, positive answers to these questions, that might be your answer right there.
