How To BLOW UP as a RAPPER in 2026 | The Frequency Ep. 001

Описание: Matt MGMT on NBA YoungBoy Tour, Fetty Wap Era, Discovering Lil RT & How Artists REALLY Blow Up
Episode 1 of Frequency

In this episode of The Frequency, Wave sits down with Matt MGMT, one of the sharpest minds behind the scenes in today’s music industry.

Coming from Patterson, New Jersey, Matt breaks down what music meant to him growing up, the artists that shaped the era, and what it was like being in the same town when Fetty Wap blew up.

We talk about his early days selling sneakers and using Instagram as a business before it was normal, his stint with Skinnyfromthe9, and how real artist development actually works.

Matt shares stories from the NBA YoungBoy tour, discovering Lil RT, Starting a digital marketing empire, & more!

He also gets real about:

Why most artists go about building “face card” the wrong way

Why music videos are dead (or at least need to evolve)

How the music industry is a finesse — and how to avoid getting played

We also touch on content groups, and the reality that not everyone has the same work ethic — even when they say they want it.

This is a masterclass for artists, managers, and creators trying to understand how the game really works in 2026.
