Bryan-Michael Cox

Bryan-Michael Cox’s talent and success cannot go unnoticed in the music industry.  With nine Grammys already under his belt, he continues to build his career in production, songwriting and DJing.  As such a notable talent, he deals with artists and numerous executives on a daily basis.  He’s been working since 1999 with various personalities and issues and has had to find balance.  Many times in this industry, while chasing their dreams, people lose sight of what’s important. Finding balance becomes less important in the business and personal care is often put to the side.  Cox has a lot of experience in this field and has a strong insight to bring to the panel’s listeners.

Health is wealth, and mental health should never be forgotten.  This panel aims to teach the important aspects of how to stay afloat in such a demanding industry. It’s important that someone is finally talking about the issues many face in mental health throughout the Hip-hop community.
