"I should be enough for what it is that I want." - Buddy Red

How do you make your own path as an artist when everyone is telling you to be something you're not?

Buddy Red has answers. The son of famed rapper T.I. is paving his own way in the music industry as a rock-infused blues guitarist with soulful riffs and visceral vocals. His music is both an ode to his heroes--greats like Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd--and something that is uniquely his. 

In this episode, Buddy Red sits down with Emmeline live from the Launch Music Conference in Dallas to talk about finding his creative truth in a sea of voices offering advice and guidance. He shares his struggle to find a corner for himself within the industry and talks about the joy of recording his latest single, "Sold His Soul." Lastly, he asks for recommendations for the best brisket in Dallas!
