Persimmon Report
Busch School alumnus, Ken Amefa, has launched a new genre of music: Della Ratta and Roll. Construction of the music studio, Unreal Studios, will be ongoing through the fall semester. Students can check in on the first studio, Maloney 431, to learn more about the artists, album release dates, and management of the studio. If you stop by for a quick and free tour, be sure to ask for the mixtape of exciting artists who will be recording in the new studio. Let’s welcome this exciting new and super spurious initiative to Maloney Hall!
