Finesse Foreva founders named Music Entrepreneurs Of The Year by Young Music Boss Awards
By Chris Cooke | Published on Friday 3 March 2023
Organisers of the Young Music Boss Awards – which aim to “support and empower young music professionals whose achievements don’t always receive the attention they deserve” – have announced that the bosses of independent label and management company Finesse Foreva will be named Music Entrepreneurs Of The Year at this year’s event, which takes place next month.
The flagship prize is sponsored by the Association Of Independent Music, and the trade group’s Entrepreneur & Outreach Manager Ben Wynter says: “We are THRILLED to see AIM Members SK and TK of Finesse Foreva be recognised for their ground-breaking work crossing over drill music to the mainstream as well as achieving the genre’s first UK number one”.
“They epitomise the entrepreneurial spirit with their tenacity and drive which has seen them collaborate with some of the biggest names in UK and US music”, he goes on. “They truly are deserving recipients of this award”.
As well as working with artists and producers like Russ Millions, Skengdo & AM and JB, the Finesse Foreva founders also run a number of community outreach projects including their own music business education programme.
YMBA founder Jusnah Gadi adds: “Recognising entrepreneurial and executive talent is a key aspect of incentivising future generations of the music business. TK and SK demonstrate everything the YMBA Music Entrepreneurs Of The Year Award aims to exemplify, it is an honour to award this to them”.
The YMB Awards take place on 20 Apr at Woolwich Works – more info here.
