Today we’d like to introduce you to Madison Inman.
Hi Madison, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
After four months of practicing in my house, I accepted my first DJ gig in 2024 — Taco Bout RNB at the Sky Blu Rooftop. In retrospect, all-RNB nights weren’t as prominent around the city. There were only a limited amount of venues and events that catered to that concept, and Taco Bout RNB was among the few. So naturally, I was extremely grateful yet nervous to play a part in such a one-of-a-kind event. This event would go on to build my name in the city of Dallas and solidify the confidence I have in my craft today. I’ve since DJed for over 100+ events including True Colors, Nothing But Anthems, CAYA, Lady Love’s RNB Tuesday, and RNB Basement Party to name a few. The journey of exploring my passion for music and sharing that with the world has been incredible. Though ever journey comes with its ups and downs, I would trade this experience for anything else.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
No, it hasn’t been a smooth road, but what road is? There are certainly instances where the ride seems pretty consistent, and then BOOM, pothole. That’s life, and that concept is especially applicable when pursing a passion projects. You can expect everything you know to be flipped on it’s head and to be constantly challenged. In my opinion, to become a DJ you must know who you are and why you’re doing what you’re doing. I, personally, did a lot of introspection prior to taking this leap, because you can easily lose yourself in the midst of doing most things. In my first year, I struggled with perfectionism and comparison. My second year, I’ve struggled with defining my lane and curating ideas. Truthfully, I will never be obstacle-free, that’s the best part of the journey. It’s the only way you can grow.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I am a creative in every sense of the word. I collect mediums like infinity stones; I am constantly exploring new ways to create and express myself. Most of my energy is dedicated to being an open-format DJ, TikTok creator, and an abstract artist. However, with time all of these pursuits will naturally spill over into other creative lanes.
I am very proud of my commitment to creativity. It takes a lot of courage to endlessly share a piece of yourself with the world. However, I think that’s what it takes to be a light in this world.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
Success is being able to find fulfillment while also taking care of yourself fully.
