What does it feel like to live with feet in multiple worlds?

Nabil Ayers can give a masterclass. He’s both a musician and businessman, bi-racial, the US GM of 4AD, a legendary record label, and writer with a growing profile. Nabil has quietly, persistently engaged in a life of lifting up the work of others, while also carving out his own creative space.

Nabil’s memoir hits in 2022 and we’re excited to have caught him as he’s entering lift-off on the long trajectory of publishing his first book. If you’re a music fan, someone walking their own evolving creative path, a person who is figuring out how to make all the pieces fit together - or all of the above - Nabil’s quiet determination will resonate.
