How Hip Hop Pioneer Sal Abbatiello Revolutionized the Music Industry That Moment with Daymond John
-
- Entrepreneurship
Chances are, you’ve sung or rapped along to one of the artists that guest Sal Abbatiello discovered or launched through one of his nightclubs or his record company. Sal is a legend in the music industry, and I know this episode will have my older listeners reminiscing on the early hip hop days and younger listeners excited to share their new music knowledge with their friends.
Sal reflected on his early days trying to convince the people around him to give hip hop a chance and the incredible story of how he brought hip hop into the Bronx clubs and pushed it into the mainstream. Who would’ve thought that a club night where you only charge $1/person could launch a legendary DJ’s career? (You’ll have to listen to find out who!)
Tune in now to learn all about how:
Sal recognized the power of DJs and created a recurring platform for them
The community was always the driving force behind Sal’s efforts
The people of the Bronx came to see Sal as a mentor - and the generosity that he showed in return
The second and third generations of hip hop were discovered
Sal pushes himself to go after what he’s most afraid of losing
And more!
Host: Daymond John
Producers: Beau Dozier & Shanelle Collins; Ted Kingsbery, Chauncey Bell, & Taryn Loftus
