Inside the Playbook: Lola Plaku on Building Toronto's Music Scene

Lola Plaku joins The Manager’s Playbook for a powerful conversation on building a career in hip hop from the ground up.

One of the few women to carve out real space in the industry, Lola reflects on her journey, from supporting local artists like Embassy to her early work with HipHopCanada, promoting shows, launching the I Luv Lola blog, and eventually managing artists and founding Girl Connected.

We explore the hustle behind the headlines, the evolution of social media, and the mindset required to lead with purpose in an industry that often overlooks the people doing the real work.

Simply put, a conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
