Partnerships
Samori Coles has spent 30 years in music as an audio engineer, producer, songwriter, artist and entrepreneur. He is a Grammy voter in the Producers & Engineers Wing of the Recording Academy. He moved into AI because he was using the tools, and now he has 63,900 followers across four platforms, and close to 8,000 people watch him live every month.
Figures are current as of November 2026. The awards and attendance numbers are counted from the records, not estimated.
Who you would be working with
He is an audio engineer, producer, songwriter and entrepreneur who was making music, making videos and teaching creators long before any of this existed. That is why his audience listens to him about AI. He is a creator who picked up the tools and kept working.
He runs live shows, produced the first AI Music Video Awards, and runs a Skool community called the AI Creator Society. He also produced the AI Music & Video Creator Weekend, which debuted in Atlanta in October 2026 and is planned to run twice a year starting in 2027. On top of that, he hosts in-person workshops out of his own recording studio in Philadelphia, at other venues in the city and across the country. All of it points to a growing community of AI music and video creators, and he is in front of them every week.
My transition into AI was not seeing an opportunity. It was using these tools.
Samori Coles
What he runs
He owns and hosts every one of these, week in and week out, for a growing audience of AI music and visual creators.
Live every Wednesday
A live AI music video review show. Creators submit their work and he reviews it on air, by name, in front of the people making the same thing. It is one of the first shows of its kind and home to the first-ever AI Music Video Awards. Season One took 158 submissions from 85 creators, narrowed to 24 nominees across seven categories.
In person, twice a year from 2027
Two days in one room, with Samori teaching and creators building alongside each other. It debuted in Atlanta in October 2026, and nearly 100 people came.
Live Tuesdays, with Olivia B. Moore
A live show built around the music itself, co-hosted with Olivia B. Moore. It reaches a growing community of AI music creators, the people who care first about how the record sounds.
A paid community, live every Monday
Home to a community of AI creators who are serious about developing their skills in AI music, AI music video and film production, and about understanding AI music creation and the music industry as a whole. There is a live class every Monday night and a classroom full of training modules where Samori demonstrates the AI music creation tools.
In person
Samori owns a recording studio in Philadelphia, Lil’ Drummaboy Recordings, and he runs AI music and AI music video and film workshops there, at other venues in Philadelphia and across the country. They run every quarter, sometimes twice, from a dozen creators in a room to 200. In October 2026 he built the first-ever AI Music & Video Creator Weekend in Atlanta from nothing, and nearly 100 people showed up.
Your product gets taught to a community that came to learn it, and that same room goes home and creates with it.
The audience
Across Sound & Screen and AI Soundcheck, close to 8,000 unique people watch live every month. Here is who they are.
Two ways in
Option one
One agreement that covers everything. He places your brand where it will land best across the shows, the awards, the community, the weekend and the rooms in Philadelphia and across the country. This is for the brand that wants to be present in AI music, video and film, rather than attached to one broadcast.
Option two
Pick the one that fits what you are selling. Presenting sponsor of an awards season or a single category, the Creator Weekend, a live show, or a workshop where your tool is the thing being taught. Smaller commitment, sharper fit, and you can see exactly what you bought.
The full breakdown, what each one costs and the dates behind it go out the same day you ask. Nothing on this page is a rate card, because the right answer depends on what you are trying to do.
Partner with Samori
The strongest value is a partnership with Samori himself. Your investment travels across his shows, his community, his events and his workshops, reaching an ecosystem of AI music and video creators around the world, and he places it where it will do the most for your brand.
Prefer to start with a single event or show? That works too. Share a little about your brand and your goals, and he will recommend the best fit.
He reviews every inquiry personally and replies within one business day.
