On March 26, 2025 in an intimate setting at SoHo Works DUMBO Brooklyn. SAINt JHN sat down with PR specialist Simone King to have a conversation moderated by journalist Keith Nelson Jr. about his career, authenticity, persistence, and the importance of branding.

Simone King, a maven in her own right helping to shape entertainment from behind the scenes. With years of experience in public relations Simone offered her perspective on work/life balance and steering her clients’ careers towards success.

The conversation moderated by Keith Nelson Jr. was filled with insights and advice for up-and-coming artists and all industry professionals. This second conversation in the PLLRS series presented by LITTLE ENGINE MEDIA was inspiring and a great follow up to the brands debut PLLRS conversation with FRIDAYY.

“One day, we’re at the Roc Nation office with Jay and Emory, and some other people. Biggs
pulled me to the side and said, ‘Yo, Jay. Talk to him. Give him some Jay wisdom.” Then Jay
says, “Yo, sometimes you have to brush your teeth with the other hand. You have to put on your
pants with the other foot first sometimes. It’s Jay so you have to be like, ‘I don’t know what that
means, but it sounds fly.’”-SAINt JHn”

The event brought out some of the music industry’s heavy weights such as Steven Carless, President of A&R at Warner Records and Mike “Heron” Herard, Vice President of A&R for Shady Records. The industry is eager for more intimate conversations and PLLRS looks to continue to provide the biggest and best stars alongside people in their circle of influence. PLLRS
