Take A Shot With Me - Manchureon

When talking to most college Seniors, all that seems to be on their mind is when's graduation and when's the next party. They aren't thinking about how to create equity for artists and create a middle class for musicians. Well, that's exactly what Manchureon aka Anthony Zhao is trying to do with his music and record label.

Hey, I'm Rob and I am the host of Take A Shot With Me. I have traveled the world, worked on radio stations, and managed artists, now I wanna interview some of the best new artists I like and drink with them!

In this week's episode of Take A Shot With Me, I sit down with Manchureon, aka Anthony Zhao. Anthony is a rapper, producer, sound engineer, and UC Berkeley Senior who has started his own record label to put "music first" and empower the artist. An Asian-American with Chinese heritage growing up in San Franciso, he has been influenced by all different cultures. From learning that music could be a career from when he lived in China to now making music that is influenced by genres from all across America. Anthony is understanding of the East-West divide. We talk about his experiences as a rapper in the Asian community, how it felt starting his label, Def Odd Records, and his advice to those in the Asian community trying to start a career in music. We also debate why In n Out is soooo very trash, you don't wanna miss out!.
