We had the good fortune of connecting with Datboykalifa and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Datboykalifa, how does your business help the community?
My Business DawinningTeam Helps the Community by giving them a Platform to Showcase there Creations and talents. we specialize in capturing content for Concerts, Festivals, Fashion Shows, Red carpet Events, Music Videos etc. I say if you don’t Have film or pictures it never Happened lol

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Datboykalifa ima Different type of artist I like to be versatile when I write music that way you can’t categorize me in one genre that’s what sets me Different from other artists Not one song Sounds like the other ima Hiphop artist but I’m melodic with my Rhymes and I’m Transitioning my style to alternative Rock and Pop music. Right Now I’m Excited to Bring more awareness to Myself and my Brand I’m Networking 25/8 lol I’ma New co Host on The Podcast POLITIKAN per usual Powered by POLITIKAN Broadcasting Network I’m learning a lot and meeting New and Creative entrepreneurs It’s Amazing to hear Other artists journeys in this industry. I got where I am today just because I wanted to help and support people it’s not about me all the time I put myself last when it comes to DawinningTeam We support all Creators and Entrepreneurs by providing media, press, photography, reel content for your social platforms. I also Host Celebrity Events Red carpet Events interviewing celebrities and Influencers. No it wasn’t Easy its Really a secret society if you have no connections or Resources, Friends in this Game it will be a Challenge The challenge is rather you will Give up or Continue your marathon That’s what they want they want you to give up But never quit Because when you finish the Race the same ones that was waiting for you to quit are gonna be the same one’s waiting at the finish line Congratulating you. I overcome my challenges by Proving people wrong I keep applying pressure on the things that I want to accomplish someone tells me NO I do it myself if someone Doubts me I show them they should’ve Believed but the most Challenging thing is being better then I was yesterday I’m always trying to exceed the limits. The first lesson I had to learn is Learning is a Everlasting process and it won’t stop until you do so when I come around Business owners, Producers, CEOs , PRs etc I pay attention and listen I’m there to learn and gain Knowledge. Lesson two Have No Expectations from Anyone just Work they will see you. Lesson three Have Fun! In anything you pursue make sure you love it enough and that your having Fun. I want the world to know Datboykalifa is DawinningTeam and DawinningTeam is Never Losing.
