a year agoThis weekend I had the opportunity to speak alongside some HEAVY hitters in sports business at Harvard University @husportslab in Cambridge, Mass. I can look left and look right and see there are a lot of other very smart and talented people in the room, but the one thing I always remember and practice, can be summed up in one simple quote: “I walk into every room as myself. I don’t walk into any room as anyone else. I’m not cowering. I’m not speaking soft. I’m walking as myself.” -SC I gotta give credit where credit is due. This was the first event of its kind at Harvard and the guy who founded the organization and created this event was a former intern of ours at Roc Nation, Tai Tatum @tbreezyy_1, whom I gave the nickname “Digital” (long story. Not going to get into it, but I had the entire department calling him by the nickname the entire summer.) Salute to you and the rest of the organizing committee on a great event! Looking forward to seeing what’s next.
3 years ago📸 🎥 📱 phone ring. “Yo, we got you as a plus one” …. Bet. Met Melo and the squad at the airport. Hopped in the sprinter. Went to the ESPYs. Took behind the scenes photos. Grabbed some video. Posted it to social. Gave all the flicks to Melo. Saw my photos go viral. Went back to airport. Went home. Night was done. First experience at the ESPYs was a memorable one.
