On Sunday, May 4th, the Inglewood rapper took the stage at Cal State Northridge for the inaugural Sound Mind Summit. Presented by More In Music, this all-day event offered an immersive experience that straddles the categories of music, education, and wellness.

In perfect timing for Mental Health Awareness Month in May, Sound Mind Summit gave guests the opportunity to explore career opportunities, gain knowledge from top executives and creatives, and connect with fellow peers who also are passionate about shaping the future of music.

The day festivities included panel discussions, hands-on workshops, and keynote sessions led by influential and diverse leaders in the music industry. Of course, D Smoke ended the day on a high note by delivering an unforgettable performance, playing all his biggest songs while reminding folks the importance of mental health and well-being. He also got on the piano and went crazy!

“As artists, we often pull from the deepest parts of our souls, leaving us depleted. Our wellness is paramount,” D Smoke states.

Founded by Noelle Chesnut Whitmore, More In Music merges career pragmatism with mental health awareness. Icons like Salt-N-Pepa’s Cheryl James and Parkwood’s Damien Smith shaped the conference, serving as the blueprint for success and sustainability in the industry.
