An A&R (artists and repertoire) representative is responsible for finding promising new artists for a record label or music publisher to sign.  Mali grew up with the dream of becoming a professional footballer from a very young age and tried everything in his power to make it into a reality, however, it did not work out for him. Notwithstanding, Mali didn't let this situation define him and was able to pick himself up and pave a pathway for himself into the music industry by attending music events, starting his own podcast speaking to up and coming artists and networking with people in the music industry.  He is the perfect example of making something out of yourself if football doesn't work out and the fact that there's industries other than football that you can thrive in!    REMEMBER TO LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!   Comment 'Beyond Football' if you enjoyed this episode!
