Although things are moving in the right direction, the lack of diversity in the Canadian music  industry is still a problem, not just for the artists trying to gain access but for those that work within the industry as well. This week on the show we discuss diversity + education in the music industry. Jen talks to rapper, motivational speaker, and author, D.O. Gibson, about how he is creating change within our industry. We discuss his conference - The Northern Power Summit - and their upcoming event Black 365, his school outreach program Stay Driven, and, of course, his music!
