Meet Crown One | Music Artist and Producer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Crown One and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Crown, how has your work-life balance changed over time?
My work reflects my life and the two intertwine quite often however I’ve established balance by maintain and refining a schedule between meetings, recording sessions, production and content creation as well as booking events and other engagements. Being self aware of a self dictated schedule on a month to month and bi monthly basis allows me to pivot at a moments notice. To be available for communication is important in my industries I frequent. .

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I got to where I am today by trusting God through the processes He plans out. The Bible says a person’s heart plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps in Proverbs 16:9 CSB. For me my life has played out that way. I plan for one thing and God ordered my footsteps elsewhere. I had stopped doing music for a number of years for personal reasons but I ended up back here doing more than what I’ve ever done before with what I would say at much less effort than years before because I trusted the processes of life. Going through near death experiences, loss of family, and financial loss. I bounced back from all that through prayer, therapy and budgeting time and money properly. Education and time management helped me overcome all those challenges that needy destroyed me. I learned that loss is apart of every winners story. Anyone that wins and stays a winner l, even if they loose it’s temporary because they’ve been built to be calloused towards any and all loss. It’s an opportunity to reposition yourself to overcome. I want people to know that my brand is built on something bigger than myself and our focus to include every that has lost, been hurt, loved or occasionally enjoying life can have victory just as I have without compromise. K.P. Music Records Inc creates content that anyone can enjoy and feel closer to God the father and my brand of music reflects the life trials and victories of trusting Christ through all of it. There’s a message to anyone that presses play or hears it passing through.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
First stop is Swenson’s, it’s an Akron staple and you gotta ge the Galley boy (I usually have two) with an order of fried and a California (doesn’t matter the size. Great meal anytime of the year. Then sliding Lock 3 for some good music or entertainment depending on the time of the year. Great place for food and fun is adjacent to Akron, Oh is Downtown Cuyahoga Falls. And if they wanted to stay in the city I’d recommend Diamond Grille, or even better Dejuan’s downtown for fine dining and service. There’s the Akron Art Museum, great parks to walk and enjoy the weather in with friends and family.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
All glory to Jesus who restored my soul and mind and His word which never failed me. Those that are connected to Him that I want to thank are companies like Faith Clothing, Zeal Energy and organizations like First Love Unbroken, Honeycomb Haven Ministries, New Greater Peace Church and DECA. They’ve all opened their doors and organizations to me to speak, perform or work alongside them with the community. My family has always been a huge foundation to my success as well, Reggie, Isronna, Rashad and my parents. Having family input and support help me excel and maintain balance when life gets chaotic or just plain busy.
