Promote at night
Studying during the day
Don't get caught up in that game with no degree
I've known too many who've learned the hard way with that shit
I understand but its hard to resist the temptation of devoting FULL TIME to it and really seeing how far you can get.
If you beat the odds what your looking at right now is short money yo. I promoted parties for years got that tax free money your talking about but just remember the party scene is fickle one week your hot and next week your not.
What city were you promoting in? And what age bracket?

Yeah and i got heavily distracted..

Chicago, and it was ironically what you call the Grown and Sexy crowd AKA 25 and up bushie crowd, ballplayers, ballers etc. It is rare for anyone to stay promoting parties long run yo. That's were you find out how money can seperate crews. I was involved with All Pro Fam at the begining which turned to Hustle who part of their team are Kanyes right hand people. The main cat from All Pro Fam fucked over madd people though and now has a bad name in the industry.

I feel that, the 25 and up promoters EAT down here. And the main promoter for 25 and up also owns almost all the clubs that he throws the events at.
I don't promote with a team at the moment. I'm a solo promoter and do events in conjunction with other promo teams.

Reall talk JJ. My little brother promoted parties in my area for a bit. He made some money but he hated the bullshit that came with it. He had to deal with grimey club owners and security, people constantly try to get over and steal. The whole nine yards. He moved to Vegas two years ago, and he's not going back into the party promoter life at all despite being out thete. I feel him on this, because when I was a radio announcer in college, I got to see the shit promoters went through. It made me not want to do it.
Even if you get through all the bullshit, the game is fickle. One minute you're hot, the next you're not. If you're going to go down this path. SAVE YOUR MONEY from it. You should be saving 20% of it each time you get paid, and you need to keep a regular job too.

If there is anyway to keep your tuition scholarship I'd say stay, get a decent major, buckle down and knock it out.
If not do the promoting thing and if you want go back later.

No don't do it
You must have literally put the most minimal effort possible in your freshman year to fuck up this badly.
Like duke said some posts before, if you don't need a degree to do what you want to do, then just drop out, otherwise you're just going to go into debt, while failing at school.

On the real, do you feel that JJ is built for that promoter life?

Anyone can do it with drive but he aint got a team and that helps a lot yo. And how much drive could he have and still not getting any and living to Atl and promoting parties.
well i'll use my personal experience, maybe it'll help. i was going to school for sound design in savannah, had good grades but even though i was studying sound for video games & film, I always was doing music on the side (production & engineering). it got to a point where I wasn't going to Sound class because I was doing shows or in another studio producing. i dropped out for 2 quarters, went to Atlanta and got an internship @ a major label studio doing music engineering. learned everything that they weren't teaching me in school, made great contacts and got a year of real experience working in a studio. started picking up school again while working @ the studio, and I just graduated with a full time job offer doing Sound Design with a film company, 9 -5. So i still can get off work and go to another studio and do my own music. But you have to grind and really think about every decision you make

What film company is this? Hit a brotha up with a PM. I have some questions.
You need to look into some summer courses ASAP to help rebuild your gpa and talk to the people in admissions and financial aid about possibly qualifying for other forms of financial i.e. (pell grants, other scholarships, work study). If you're serious about school then focus on school. Stop letting temporary money interfer with future money.

on some real talk
I advocate only going to school if you are serious and really know what you want to do
college education is too expensive and time consuming to be ambivalent about whether you should attend
you better off getting into the workforce and working a couple of crappy jobs..............guarantee you'll get the proper motivation when you find yourself sweating like a slave for minimum wage
and if you end up making more than that, fuck it
just truly evaluate the opportunity cost of going to college before you make a decision you might regret
