**Local artist combines business acumen with musical talent, releases new singles "Crash Out" and "Us"**
*ORLANDO, FL* — Pierre Hollywood Wilkins is proving that independent artists can successfully blend entrepreneurship with creativity. The Orlando-based musician, who has called Central Florida home for the past 15 years, has been steadily building his brand through his company Draft Day Records while simultaneously expanding into the fashion world with Draft Day Clothing.
Originally from Newport News, Virginia, with family roots in Newark, New Jersey, Wilkins has been crafting his unique sound since he first picked up a pen to write songs at just 13 years old. Now, nearly two decades later, he's transforming his passion into a full-scale business operation.
"I'm focusing on legacy and building my brand," Wilkins explains about his approach to the music industry. Since establishing Draft Day Records in 2016, he has maintained his independence while developing both his artistic and business ventures.
## Latest Musical Offerings
Wilkins has released two notable singles this year that showcase his evolving artistry. His track "Crash Out" demonstrates his versatility as a performer, while his most recent release, "Us," takes listeners on a more intimate journey. Produced by S.dot fire, "Us" is described as a smooth, melodic record that explores the delicate process of building and maintaining intimate relationships.
"'Us' represents growth both personally and artistically," Wilkins notes about the track, which is now available on all major streaming platforms alongside "Crash Out."
## Multi-Faceted Business Approach
What sets Wilkins apart from many independent artists is his diversified approach to building his brand. Through Draft Day Clothing, he has ventured into e-commerce and fashion design, creating another revenue stream while expanding his creative expression beyond music.
This multi-faceted business model reflects a growing trend among independent artists who are taking control of their careers by developing multiple income sources and maintaining ownership of their creative work.
## Central Florida's Growing Music Scene
Wilkins' success story adds to Orlando's expanding reputation as a hub for independent artists and entrepreneurs. His nearly decade-long commitment to building Draft Day Records demonstrates the potential for artists to establish sustainable careers outside of traditional major-label systems.
As streaming platforms continue to democratize music distribution and social media provides direct artist-to-fan connections, entrepreneurs like Wilkins are positioning themselves to take advantage of these new opportunities in the music industry.
With his combination of business savvy, creative talent, and long-term vision, Pierre Hollywood Wilkins represents a new generation of artist-entrepreneurs who are redefining what it means to build a music career in the modern entertainment landscape.
Both "Crash Out" and "Us" are currently available on all major streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music.
