02/02/07 - Ludacris, Grammy Winners Advise Atlanta Students

J-Banks · 02-02-2007, 01:48 PM

As part of the lead up to the Grammy Awards later this month, the Recording Academy recruited Ludacris, Earl Klugh and other artists to advise about 300 Atlanta high school students on careers in the music industry.

“Self-education is the most important thing to have,” Ludacris said during a discussion at the Clark Atlanta University’s Park Street Music & Art Complex.

“I know you can have street smarts. But if you combine that with book smarts, you’ll be unstoppable.”

Klugh, a veteran jazz guitarist, spoke about the business side of the music industry and how to make a profit.

Other panelists included R&B singer Lyfe Jennings, music engineer Phil Tan, and songwriter Tab Nkhereanye.

“I can’t play songs, rap or play instruments like all big headliners,” said Nkhereanye, a Grammy winner who has worked with Mariah Carey, Usher and Gwen Stefani.

“But I have the ability to mix songs to make them sound great. If you want to be a part of the music industry, there's always something to do.”
