EMONI MATTHEWS
Bringing with her a distinguished reputation in the music industry, Emoni serves as the Co- Founder and President of Music Supervision and Creative Licensing for Blaze Unlimited, A creative Music Agency.
Always having a passion for music, Emoni accomplished her first major milestone of her career while still in college: she founded Entertainment Alliance—the first record label on a Historically Black College University. The label was completely operated by students. It still operates today serving as a liaison between the campus and industry professionals.
Next, Emoni landed the exclusive opportunity of interning at Paramount Pictures within the music archives department. The following year she interned with her now mentors at Hunnypot Unlimited. Her knowledge and experience gained there catapulted her into her next endeavor: working with Grammy award winning producer/engineer Darryl Swan. Following her graduation from Norfolk State University with a Bachelor of Music Media, Emoni began working as a Music Supervision Associate for Extreme Music. From there she ventured to Rostrum Records to spearhead the creation of their new one-stop shop catalog, DRIP Library. Most recently she had the opportunity to Music coordinate for the Kevin Durant project released on Showtime entitled "Basketball County: In the Water " as she held the position Head of Music Supervision and Creative Licensing at House Music Group.
Emoni Matthews is living proof that it is important to aim high and never accept no as a final answer. She has the experience, talent, and ear for music that has translated into her fearlessness and determination to succeed and help others succeed along the way.
