Founded by Harvard professor Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr. and Princeton University professor Dr. Anthony Appiah, the Africana.com news and feature Web site on African-American life and culture. There, Gibbs was a witness of the dot com bubble and the rapid digital transformation taking place in the entertainment industry, moving from periodic publications to daily ones and the increasing importance of specific entertainment products to drive growth in that industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After moving to New York, Ken Gibbs&#8217; career really took off throughout the entertainment industry, be it visual, audio, and written. He took on the role of Programming Director of the Graphics division at AOL Time Warner in 2004, became the Lead Programming Director at Radio One in 2007 and as Site Development Director\/Real Black Network Director at Essence Magazine, a role that he performed until 2009.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From there, Ken Gibbs&#8217; name was attached to that of ViacomCBS, moving between different divisions and platforms of the company. He took the role of Editor at Large at MTV Networks for 2 years, worked as Vice President, Social Media Marketing Strategy at Viacom subsidiary BET\u00a0 and became the Vice President Digital Video and Social Content at ViacomCBS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After leaving the company, Ken Gibbs moved to Amazon as Head of Series Social in 2020 and finally became the Global Head, Social Media Marketing at Spotify in 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with global leading platforms and brands like AOL, Viacom, Amazon and now Spotify,\u00a0 Ken Gibbs has developed himself as a forward-thinking executive with 20+ years of industry expertise and delivering leading global strategies and solutions. Along his extensive career, he has effectively learned how to manage teams remotely, target marketing, content creation, and developed effective social media marketing strategies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ken is skilled in managing people and processes to ensure measurable growth and impact, creating a culture of engagement and high performance, and crafting comprehensive plans with wide communication and facilitation versatility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gibbs is highly recognized by the industry as a respected visionary and change-agent leading companies through the complexities of bridging marketing with technological solutions and identifying innovative ways to increase audience and engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Vision<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this interview, Ken Gibbs shared his insights on key areas of the entertainment and creative industries and the digital acceleration taking place in new platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Artists need to understand the new digital era to get the most out of it<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think what artists need to understand today is that while all of the tools that the platforms make available allow for an unprecedented amount of independence, and also, you know, generation of revenue, the other side is that choosing to forego that independent paths means that you won\u2019t have the aid of, quite frankly, professionals like myself, right? Like that\u2019s what the machine provides you. Some of the biggest artists today that have come up through the traditional channels, they didn\u2019t have to learn about any of this. They have PR managers, marketing managers, product managers; if you choose to go the independent route, those are all of the roles that you\u2019re taking on, along with artists, and there are complexities within those roles, there is a reason why people who do those roles get paid salaries. So I do think that artists need to be just honest with themselves about their ability and capacity to take on so much of what the machine has traditionally done in the past and I also think it\u2019s key to understand at what point you can no longer do it yourself.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Platforms don\u2019t control the artists, they offer opportunities<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAt a certain point you\u2019ve got to have a conversation about your business being an artist, right, and your job being to produce music, so if you\u2019re handling the business of music, at what point will that impact your ability to produce the product that is that music as well. And just its overall impact on your creative energy, and what have you. But I would also argue that it\u2019s not the platforms that are controlling the artists, right? The other side of this is, the platform doesn\u2019t know you, the platform doesn\u2019t know your mother, right, in the way that old school record label manager might come and try to woo you to be on their label as opposed to another. The platforms offer opportunities and the platforms also, almost encourage, multi-platform presence.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h2><b>Ken Gibbs Links And Sources<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/kengibbsjr\/<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kengibbsjr\/\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">http:\/\/shortlist.hashtagsports.com\/<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>About citiesabc.com<\/strong><br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.citiesabc.com\/\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/citiesabc__%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/citiesabc__\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>About openbusinesscouncil.org<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.openbusinesscouncil.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.openbusinesscouncil.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.4irbook.com\/\">4IR: AI Blockchain Fintech IoT Reinventing a Nation by Dinis Guarda and Rais Hussin (4irbook.com)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.openbusinesscouncil.org\/smart-cities-index-indexdna-captures-the-complex-relationship-between-citizens-industry-policymaking-and-society\/\">Dinis Guarda<\/a>\u00a0citiesabc openbusinesscouncil Series is also available as podcast on<\/p>\n<p><em>Apple Podcasts:<\/em>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/dinis-guarda-citiesabc-openbusinesscouncil-series\/id1510330391\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/dinis-guarda-citiesabc-openbusinesscouncil-series\/id1510330391<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>On Spotify:<\/em>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/1vA8KaDaRpJ0mAfpNbfTSF?si=H_WngL4RSOyu1W7VAmM41w&amp;dl_branch=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/1vA8KaDaRpJ0mAfpNbfTSF?si=H_WngL4RSOyu1W7VAmM41w&amp;dl_branch=1<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Google Podcasts:\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.google.com\/feed\/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5idXp6c3Byb3V0LmNvbS8xMDMyMzg4LnJzcw==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/podcasts.google.com\/feed\/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5idXp6c3Byb3V0LmNvbS8xMDMyMzg4LnJzcw==<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Amazon Music:<\/em>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/music.amazon.com\/podcasts\/953a5156-823c-4e86-baeb-4fda1128e44c\/DINIS-GUARDA-CITIESABC-OPENBUSINESSCOUNCIL-SERIES\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/music.amazon.com\/podcasts\/953a5156-823c-4e86-baeb-4fda1128e44c\/DINIS-GUARDA-CITIESABC-OPENBUSINESSCOUNCIL-SERIES<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ken Gibbs is the Global Head, Social Media Marketing at Spotify, member of the Adweek Social Media Council and co-host of The Art of Storytelling at Soho House.\u00a0 Boston, USA, born Ken Gibbs is a senior digital marketing executive with more than 20 years of experience.
