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

Hi P. Jax, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
My thought process was that this was the natural next step. If I wanted to be creative as a career, I would have had to start taking my entrepreneurial side more seriously. When people do business, they don’t like sending money to personal accounts, no matter how it’s transferred. Starting a business and opening a business account allowed me to truly see for the 1st time how much I was spending and making. Which allowed me to budget better, and take further steps to being an entrepreneur, like people paying me for my work.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
My music is all about stories and characters, some fiction, a lot of it not, but the idea is to give a message or theme. I’m always trying to put some kind of idea or concept in my music for people to latch on to or decode, while also making sure the song is actually a RECORD with a hook, great beat, and something that sticks in people’s head or gets them dancing.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Let’s say they we’re using their corporate card 😆😆😆 and fully vaccinated Monday- Magic City (For the ‘gram)

Friday- Breakfast at Barney’s, Edgewood Bars
Saturday- Trip to Athens
Sunday- Piedmont Park/Lil Fives

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Shoutout Mom! She has always taught me a lot about money and budgeting in my personal finances, and is always giving me resources of how to apply that to my business finances. So shoutout Mama!!
