The series features exclusive video interviews airing on WeMix.com's newly-minted "Knowledge" section, with each celebrity presenting their own opinions and advice on a variety of topics that affect all unsigned artists.

The video series was taped on location at recording studios, hotel rooms, even tour buses, with personal tips on important topics such as:
What's right and what's wrong with the music business - and what kind of changes can help
Advice on how to use personal experiences in songwriting and how to get the most out of valuable studio time
Stories and tips on how to stay focused and take critical next steps to get your music heard
Thoughts on bad reviews - and how even haters can make you a better artist
Why live music matters more than most new artists realize - and how to maximize your on stage performance
Many additional episodes are planned for 2009, with celebrity mentors from the world of rock, pop, hip-hop, and country.
