In 2024, shesaid.so once again join forces with PRS to run POWER UP, the long-term initiative supporting Black music creators, industry professionals, and executives, while also addressing anti-Black racism and racial disparities in the music sector.
To achieve our aim, POWER UP X shesaid.so are looking for acclaimed music professionals, both creators and executives, to mentor and coach future industry leaders.
Mentors are matched with mentees based on experience, aims, needs, background and requirements by a panel of mentoring experts.
The mentors must a deep understanding of the barriers faced by Black music professionals; extensive experience within your area or a specialist skill set. It is recommended by POWER UP X shesaid.so that mentor pairs dedicate 2 hours per month to the 4-month scheme.
We provide training, a guidance handbook, access to 2x mentorship managers and £175 as a nominal gesture of gratitude for the mentors’ time.
If you can commit to 2hrs per month, please register here by the 31st of January.
