WESLEY COCHRAN whose number is (314) 629-5049 goes by the following e-mail addresses:

quickdarealest@yahoo.com

quickdarealest@gmail.com

quickdarealest1@gmail.com

 

He is known for embezzling with various organizations, including Robella, LLC, Icon Sports and Entertainment and Warner Bros.  He sets up artists at double their price at various events and venues, then pockets some of the door money from anyone who puts money behind it (saying it was "break even").  I have witnessed this first hand, after seeing him spend $4k on his vehicle and another $2k on frivolous activities.

He is NOT to be trusted.  He claims to know major artists and to hold ties with David Michery (which is true), but he also has stolen money from them and 'padded' artist profiles he's submitted to Warner Bros.

He WILL RIP YOU OFF!  Do not doubt it.  Things may look kosher, at first, but when he gets a good enough opportunity, he will rip you off (it is in his nature).  He tries to talk his way into and out of deals, and he mixes lied with the truth.  It's how he makes his living, off of others.

 

His LinkedIn profile is:  https://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=92786719&authType=name&authToken=kHYh&trk=prof-endrs-promo-multi-photo

 he never asked us for money to do any deals. It always was good i have talked to the guy that wrote the article and i know for a fact that he messed up stuff he said so on the phone. As far as the shows, that was a separate thing if he did shows he can charge whatever he wants its up to the promoter to either pay or not, if they feel its a good price then wheres the problem? Im amazed that people can just post stuff without checking. Did anyone ask the artist???

Yes I have worked with several artist none have ever complained about working with me. This person who wrote this was working with me he moved from Arizona to Chicago where he stayed in a condo with me. All he had to do was send out contracts however he felt as though he should change the way the contracts were written even though they were written by the label.  After a few missed deals due to the changing of contracts and other personal things that went on between this person I felt I needed to make changes so I did. As far as doing deals for artist that's not true whereas they pay money that's wayyyy off base this person knows nothing about the music business he was just a young person that thought he knew everything! !! Example,  he told me that he knew more about the human brain than a college professor,  he told me that he could probably win a case between a lawyer that went to any Ivy league school if he was given the time. He has several law suits on various types of people and or companies.  I have stressed to him that he was all over the place and he should slow down because at 27years old he really thought that he knew all the things that are stated. These things take people a lifetime to learn and several years of schooling and experience so it was impossible for him at his age to make these claims nonetheless he claims he a genius and he can do them all!  Now as for doing concerts when promoters call for artist yes they are charged a fee. He was never given an amount of how much to send to anyone so he could not know what is made or paid out. I would never give him or any one that much access to how booking works. Not once in his claims has he said shows don't happen after all parties are compensated so weather or not he feels that what I make is right or not it's not his business. Notice. .. he's the ONLY ONE with a complaint?  I've been in this business for over 20yrs he thought he knew more than me in 1 month.  As for that picture I never put that up and it's a side view picture so that tells me it wasn't voluntarily taken another sneaky thing from him. Notice I've not said his name?  Why??? I'm not in the business of smearing people so there's no need.
