CCC Funding Request

Close Connect Consultants would like to request $10,000 USD for the set up and legal structure of the business.

CCC is going to be the first decentralized major NFT Label / Publishing house / Marketplace made by artists
for artists. It will offer fans the opportunity to own a part of their favorite music released on the NEAR
Blockchain. With a team of internal platinum selling songwriters, producers, engineers, A&R’s, and graphic
artists we guarantee to be releasing the highest quality music and art on the chain. We have a team of developers who can build the platform, hand picked from the NEAR community ready
to make this dream a reality. A group of De-Fi and Tokenomics experts to create and manage the
community token allocations. A dedicated team of A&R’s are ready to bring the highest caliber, platinum
and gold selling recording artists to release music, and drive the masses to NEAR Protocol.
This will be the first decentralized NFT Label / Publishing house / marketplace of this caliber to allow the
community to drive the marketing campaigns through a DAO which will be funded by a percentage of the
revenue generated from the sale of the NFT’s.

CCC is founded by 3 equal partners who all have industry experience and proven track records.

Blake Harden is a Grammy Certified recording engineer who has worked on projects with Kendrick Lamar, Katy Perry, Travis Scott, etc. His work has garnered over an incredible 25 billion streams, and he has solid relationships with A List celebrities and both major and Indie record labels.

Dion Primo is a multi platinum song writer who is signed by Universal Music Group. He has written for Ice Cube, Common, Slaughterhouse, Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg and the list goes on.

JCB is an audio engineer / producer / entrepreneur. He has been in the near community for over a year now and co founded C1.

The $10,000 USD goes beyond the scope of the creatives DAO and because of this we are asking the community team to consider. The ask will be used to cover legal fees in order to register the company as a LLP. It will cover the cost of structuring the business for taxation purposes, due to the complexities of an international structure with Candian and American ownership.

Discussions surrounding the CCC project have been happening since early December, and has been a major focus to help spread the word of NEAR Protocol with the onboarding of major celebrities and their fan bases.
