Produktbeschreibung
A sharp and timely debut about a young woman who lands a coveted job at a well-renowned music label, only to realize that her dream may be a nightmare. Growing up, Billie Willis sought solace in music, finding herself in the pulsing beats, striking lyrics, and mesmerizing voices that saved her when money issues and familial strife proved deafening. When she finally lands a coveted A&R assistant role at Lit Music Productions, one of the largest music labels in the country, it initially seems like everything she's dreamed of- beautiful offices, access to exclusive industry parties, flashy dealmaking-and she can't wait until it's her turn to start finding new talent. But, as she continues to work at Lit, she's forced to face the music of what working in the industry is really like. The hours are long, the workload is heavy, the pay is abysmally low, and the only other woman of color around, Nina, is friendly one day and cold the next. The corporate world is full of microaggressions, sexism, and flat-out racism, not just for Billie but the marginalized artists she hopes to sign. Parading as something she's not, Billie takes on her first artist, but the stakes are higher than ever when a shake-up threatens to change everything, and endangers Billie's already-precarious place in the pecking order. Her love life, family, and friendships have all taken a hit, but that's sacrifice, isn't it? Billie has her sights set on the stars, but will achieving her dream job be worth losing everything else she's ever loved? Soulful, timely, and keenly resonant, When the Music Hits is an anthem for making space where there was none before, and introduces Oliver as a blazing new talent to watch.
