Known Unknown Episode 6: C-San (Artist Manager)

Known Unknown is a series of interviews with different individuals working with artists, who are known in the music industry but unknown to a lot of the general public. We wanted to showcase the people who are behind the scenes working hard to make things happen as well as help up and coming managers, A&Rs, promoters etc. learn directly from people working in these positions.

C-San is not only the manager of hip hop group Overdoz, but is also an artist himself. Early on he wanted to learn about the business side of the music industry and decided to intern at Interscope/Geffen. From his two years there and his experience managing Overdoz, C-San has a lot of great insight to offer. Be sure to check out the interview as well as follow him to see what he's up to next!

Dear Past Me,

Hey, how’s it going? I know that things look dark right now. You can’t seem to find your way out of the rain and you’re feeling pretty left behind right now. But don’t give up. Go talk to that boy you like. I know he has a girlfriend, but he’s still going to be there for you. He’s your best friend in this whole world and I know, I know you don’t see the point, I know you don’t feel like you're worth his time, but he cares about you. Your mother wants what’s best for you. Your friend Josh is gay, but don’t tell anyone that because two years later he’s still kind of shy about it. Andrea is important, keep that girl around. And I’m sure you just want me to get past all of this but I have to tell you that no matter what you think right now, you’re bound for a better life. It will get better. Don’t swallow those pills. Leave the scissors in the drawer. Talk to Brandon. Let yourself be in like with him for a while, because he’s in like with you, too — yes, I know you’re supposed to be his girlfriend’s best friend. She’s a bitch. Two years from now you’re the one who gets to love him and she’s going to a crappy school dating a 19-year-old college drop-out who works part time at Larosa’s.

You’ve got a lot going for you. Don’t cry.

Sincerely,

18-Year-Old,

Successful,

Educated,

Happy,
