Today we’d like to introduce you to Irv Da PHENOM.
Hi Irv, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I started with a passion for music that took me to state to state selling over 50,000 units of my own CDs out the trunk of my car. After cultivating my own code base, I began touring heavily and writing and featuring on other artists’ albums. I’ve been featured by MTV, XXL, ESPN, FX, on major soundtracks and TV scores.
In the midst of all the touring city to city and trying new restaurants at every stop, I fell in love with food and wine pairing. I’ve been incorporating both my love for music and pairing through my special pairing events and my mobile boutique.
I’m really excited about the new post-pandemic world we’re in and what it means for live entertainment and interactions between creatives and those who support them.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I firmly believe the biggest obstacle anyone will ever face is themselves. Once I got out of my own way, everything manifested. It continues to blossom for me as I continue to grow and understand what I demand from it, creatively, personally, etc.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
Music. Vintage/sustainable Fashion. Wine pairing. Acting.
GOD only made one of me and I’m learning to share that uniqueness with the world through every medium I touch. Be it music, art, fashion, or food.
One of my most proud accomplishments is being the first independent, unsigned artist from Kansas City to be featured and interviewed by XXL magazine, MTV News, and other major publications and stations, in the process bringing awareness to all the other incredible artists we have in KC.
Do you have any advice for those just starting out?
Master your craft and make sure you genuinely love it enough to do it even when it doesn’t pay.
