As a Public Relations student, I get asked the same question: "what do you want to do with that?" So I am going to set the record straight now, for all of you who may be wanting to ask me this at some point.
When I grow up I want to work for Fearless Records, a California based label who has bands like blessthefall, For All Those Sleeping, and Mayday Parade. Most of you probably have no idea who any of those are, and that is why I want to work there. So many amazing bands are looked over because they are in the "rock" or "screamo" genre that does not sell on the radio. These are just a few of the talented lineup Fearless Records has and I desperately want to join in on the fight to make these bands big. I have a passion for rock music, it is so deep in my blood that I do not think I can live without it. I want, more than anything, to work in that genre specifically.
Now, on to a serious note. As a female, I already have things going against me in the music industry. It is definitely a male dominated field. There are some amazing PR, marketing and publicity women out there, but it is few and far between. I want to change that; I want to be that strong, impactful woman who changes the face of the industry.
Not only do I have my sex going against me, I have my faith. My relationship with God is not a part of who I am, it is who I am. Fearless Records is not a Christian label; it actually has a few artist who are atheist and hate Christians. Why would I want to go there, and put myself in such a tough situation that could test my faith and pull me through hell? Why not? God came to this earth knowing he would be hated, beaten, loathed and lied about. I should be just as brave to stand up for my faith in such a way that brings glory to His Name. I want to be fearless for God. I want to bring His Love to the unloved. I want to show the world that He is all that they need. I know I can do that the best in a secular world where I am tested and tried.
Being fearless for God is my ultimate goal. Working for Fearless Records only makes sense to reach that.
