The climate crisis is one of the greatest challenges of our time | Musicians' Union

#WorldEnvironmentDay

Video description: found footage video starting with clips of Queen, Dolly Parton, Miles Davis and Public Enemy performing to large crowds. After 10 seconds, the clips switch to focus on the human impacts of climate crisis: people escaping a flooding arena, an aerial shot of flooded homes and gardens, an aerial shot of destroyed apartments and public spaces. Then the focus moves to the role of musicians with clips of festivals followed by photos and text that say “ethical festivals,” “responsible merchandise,” “sustainable touring” and “accessible events.” The video ends with text on black slides that says “The climate emergency affects us all. Be part of the solution: theMU.org/climate-emergency” followed by the Musicians’ Union logo.

Si eres nuevo en mi canal, mi nombre es Alexiomar Rodríguez, soy abogado y socio fundador de Xiola. Somos una firma legal boutique para la industria de la música y el entretenimiento. Trabajamos con artistas, empresarios e inversionistas. Les ayudamos a negociar y cerrar contratos de seis y siete cifras. En 2025, conseguimos $5M para nuestros clientes sin sacrificar derechos, control, ni libertad.

Cómo llegué aquí…

0–21: Músico, productor, guitarrista y cantautor (+10,000 oyentes mensuales en Spotify).
22: Graduado con Altos Honores en Economía (UPRM).
24: Trabajé con jueces (federal y estatal) y firmas de litigio corporativo.
25: Graduado con Altos Honores en Derecho (UPR).
26: Renuncié a una de las top 3 firmas de Puerto Rico para lanzar Xiola.
27: Facturé mis primeros $100,000.
28: Fundé Seed Academy, escuela de music business en español.
29: Escribí un best seller en Amazon (De Artista a Empresario Musical) y superé $400K en revenue.
30: Me mudé a EE.UU., levanté $250,000 con Techstars + Warner + VC, y lancé Flou, software de contratos musicales ($50,000 en ventas).
31: Comencé a dar charlas internacionales.
32: Seguí el consejo de mi mentor, Alex Hormozi. Cerré Seed Academy y Flou. Me enfoqué en Xiola y facturamos más de $500,000. 

Hoy: Nuestra firma ha cerrado sobre $5M en adelantos e inversión en la industria de la música y el entretenimiento. Somos 100% bilingües (español e inglés). Trabajamos con artistas, empresarios e inversionistas americanos e hispanos. Cobramos de tres maneras: tarifa fija, comisión, y suscripción. Así es como hacemos nuestro dinero. No vendemos cursos. 

La industria musical es dura. Pero si naciste para esto, lo sabes:

La vida sin música sería un error.

No te quites,

Alexiomar
