“Honestly, the timing was impeccable because at the time,” Civil told Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson on the Scoop B Radio Podcast. “I was their thirteenth employee. caught them when they were starting their own marketing department and there were probably six people in marketing. So I caught them when they were stepping away from Monster.”
Civil is a rising cultural influencer who turned her fascination with the internet into a lucrative career. Her website, LiveCivil.com is a hub that aggregates content in news, music releases and celebrity interviews.
She fondly remembers the Beats days and was thankful to be part of something so new and innovative. “The timing was perfect and who I was and the ideas and it was just immaculate in those close to four years that I was there. I learned so much and got to work with great people.”
