Tara with Teddy Riley
FWM: How are you bridging the gap between the digital era of entertainment and traditional PR?
Well, I work with digital platforms, and I also work with traditional PR. I treat every individual differently. I don’t treat them as a client; I treat them as a family. Once I get to know them, I can strategize as to what their needs are. The better you know your client, the better. You can do for them.
FWM: Tell us about working with the legendary Teddy Riley.
Teddy Riley is a fantastic person. He is my client, but he is my brother. He is full of life and always speaks positively. He only wants what is best for everybody in his circle.
FWM: You not only work with legendary talent but also up-and-coming brands. Tell us more.
I work with the star of the Hit TV show. Put a ring on it, Shay and Fonzo!!! I’m working on an upcoming event called PeachNik. I manage the one and only Lil Bankhead from V103 Atlanta.
I represent one of the hottest unsigned artists in Atlanta named 2crayy. And I also manage 76 chain out of Detroit, and there has never been an artist like him.
But everyone knows my heart is with Gsquared. We should be going out again soon, and I’m super excited.
FWM: What will people notice about working with you?
I’m candid and very transparent. Some people will like me, and others will not.
FWM: How important is transparency to you?
Transparency is essential to me, I raise my children on that, and they are my most significant accomplishments in life. My Grandchildren and Children are life,
FWM: Why are artists coming to you today? What do you offer?
I offer them a chance to create, and I offer them a chance to get with the big dogs in the industry whether that is music or TV.
FWM: Can you share a few clients wins?
The Millennium Tour was a massive win for me, the 90s block party was a massive win for me, and then Freaknik 2019.
I also work with a super boxer trainer Johnathan Banks. I have been blessed to work with excellent promoters and people. I cannot forget Celebrity Chef Momo, who was the chef for Charlie Sheen, as well as Justin Bieber and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The ladies and I are working with some great producers as we speak, and I can’t talk about it, but I’m super excited.
So, you will be able to look behind the scenes at what goes on in the music industry. I am also a speaker on domestic violence, and I try to give back.
FWM: You are well-known for your highly-engaged events. What are you working on for 2022?
I can say that 2022 will be the biggest year of all. I will be invading music and TV simultaneously, and God is in charge of that.
