Rapper IDK to Launch Music Business Program at Harvard

IDK is launching a music business program at Harvard University this summer!

The 29-year-old rapper’s No Label Academy will be a 10-day program (August 21-31) on the school’s campus in Boston, and will help students kickstart careers in the music industry. Applications opened this week and students who are accepted will receive free tuition. 

“I decided to create this program for the purpose of letting people in the BIPOC community know that a job in the arts is a lot more realistic than what society makes it seem these days,” IDK says in a statement.

Brian K. Price, clinical professor of law at Harvard Law School and director of the Transactional Law Clinics, has accepted the invitation to serve as an adviser for the new program. He believes “education is key to launching and maintaining a successful enterprise.”

“Anyone aspiring to do music as a business must think like and excel as an entrepreneur. There must be a foundation of knowledge and how to apply that knowledge. Learning from experience is one way; learning from ‘the experienced’ is another,” he said. “I’m happy to support initiatives that help learners understand how to make wise decisions,” he says.

This is exciting news and we are so happy for him. What do you think? Spread the word and even apply here.
