Portrait featuring Ejilen Faya, Music Producer and DJ

Having a curious mind and the humility to continuously learn is a common theme I find amongst many of my guests.

What I also take from those conversations is that there are no shortcuts to "success" and that circumventing hard work is only a recipe for short term gratification or glory.

This week's guest is no exception.

On the occasion of Music Day celebrated last Saturday, I was thrilled to sit down with music producer and DJ Ejilen who generously shared his story: why he chose music and music chose him, what drives him to pursue his passion in an incredibly difficult industry and his advice to aspiring artists.
