innerscorecard Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Some rap (Jay-Z, who I do like a lot) is the closest I can think of. Why is there such a big lack here? Is it discordance between the type of person who likes to write songs and record music and the type of person who likes to create businesses, invest and make money?

Studesy Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I think anyone here that grew up knowing who Warren G is will get some kicks out of this one. Had me almost rolling on the floor when I saw it a few years ago. Here it is: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzCactus Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I hardly think a four minute song about investing would sell many copies. The closest thing I have seen is the Forbes interview with Buffett and Jay-z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobafdek Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Yet another example - David Lowery of Camper Van Beethoven and Cracker (early alternative rock, ca. 1990s): Lowery is a trained mathematician who has worked as a "quant" (a derivatives trader and financial analyst) and has started a number of music-related businesses, including a studio, a record company and a publishing company.[3] Lowery's extensive experience in business led to his appointment as a lecturer in the University of Georgia's music business program. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Lowery_(musician) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

innerscorecard Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. Keep 'em coming! I want to write and record songs about value investing myself. The only problem is my lack of musical (as well as investing) talent. Could probably write some demos and get professional musicians to do decent performances of the songs for a reasonable amount of money in our internet freelancing age, though.
