From Chaos to Career Comebacks: Behind the Scenes with a Concert Booking Agent
Real recognize real—and VA’s the secret weapon turning underground talent into LEGENDS.🚀
Join DeShawn Snow and Skido Ortiz for a raw, faith-fueled chat with VA, the booking agent who’s spent 15 years turning NO into game-changing YES for hip-hop’s biggest names. In this episode, we dive into:
- The GRIND: How VA went from street life to stage-directing sold-out tours (and why he’ll never touch the game again).
- FAITH & HUSTLE: Praying through shootouts, dodging egos, and why God’s his ultimate "insurance policy" in the chaos.
- CRAZY STORIES: Bullet holes at clubs, last-minute Skittles demands, and the viral comeback tour that changed everything.
- REAL TALK: Why loyalty is greater than money, how to spot fakes, and VA’s unfiltered advice for artists and promoters.
