Ivan attributes his original love for music to 'Left Eye' from TLC and finding out particularly that his father and uncle grew up on the same block as her in Philadelphia. From there, it went on to him becoming interested in documentaries and the behind the scenes of the music industry and was always thinking about creative ways to promote music (album covers, rollouts, etc.)
At 16, after receiving some motivation from a publicist of a magazine he reached out to it was then that Earstyle was born. It was a way of putting together music for the ear as well as the style and culture that embodies it all. Being in high school at the time and seeing how many people supported his vision was nothing short of blessings for Ivan.
But how has he adapted after running this website for more than 10 years?
Tune in to episode 36 as Ivan takes us on the journey of owning Earstyle while providing something memorable for everyone, relives the impact Hampton University has had on him and how he is translating that to his life today and much more!
