In this edition of Smartist Magazine: Smarts Behind The Artist, we hear from Dre London, manager of Post Malone, Tyla Yaweh, Dzeko, Tank God, and other hip hop music game changers.Dre got his start in management nearly 15 years ago, when he moved from the UK to New York City with his first artist and childhood friend, Cerose. I remember him doing this mixtape — back in the day it used to be DVD’s and stuff — and I remember him doing some freestyling on a DVD and I was like “yo, I could get this guy forever, I know how big he should be.” And it kind of started from there. Well not history like that but over a period of time, it blew up. It was crazy… I think Kanye West had a concert back in the day, and I took him to the show, and it was after that we became closer. So, I took him to New York on the quest to try and make him big.Yeah as his manager. Not too much time, because I’m telling you management takes up everything. The rapper Post Malone says he has seen several UFOs. But like not having any other job, like I had a business and stuff that I run, but I’d definitely say 2015 was the time when I was like OK.

I met him and got his number and then called him and just started telling him about my plans, and he just said “alright, I must come and talk to him.” I remember I met him and his boy, and he took me to him, and the rest is history. It was a Kanye show, I don’t remember which one, one of his tours back in the day in New York, and from that day onward we started getting closer.

I tell him the stuff I’m doing. So, I took him as a business partner over there [New York], and that’s when I met rappers like Jadakiss and French Montana, and the more established rappers of the time. Try to just see where I’m going and put across my experience, and what I see, and if they like it. That’s when it took me on a journey to America, because at the time there wasn’t much of a UK rap scene. I’d DJ at barbecues, birthdays, I was just always finding a reason to DJ. Just keeping them, what’s the word — just keep pushing them and pushing them when they are vulnerable, and before they know it they find themselves, finding themselves.
