Episode 7: From Employee to CEO – The Remarkable Journey of Frederick Jude
In this electrifying episode of The Be Unstoppable Podcast, host Ben Wynter delves into the extraordinary story of Frederick Jude, CEO of the highly successful alternative record label group Snapper Music. Starting as an employee, Fred made bold moves that ultimately transformed his life—he forwent pay raises in exchange for small shares in the company, patiently acquiring equity over the years. When the time was right, he made the ultimate power play: offering to buy out his bosses and, in a dramatic twist, firing them to become the majority shareholder and CEO.
Under Fred’s leadership, Snapper Music has thrived with labels like Peaceville, Kscope, and Madfish, supporting artists like Cradle of Filth, Porcupine Tree, and Fleetwood Mac's Peter Green.
Fred’s journey is about more than just music. Growing up in Hackney, he saw firsthand the determination of his parents, part of the Windrush generation, as they built a life in the UK. Their legacy of resilience inspired Fred not only to revolutionise Snapper Music but also to create a successful family business that continues to honour their values.
In this episode, Fred shares a masterclass on understanding shares, the importance of equity, and leveraging debt capital for growth. He also opens up about the critical role of a supportive and trusting partner, sharing how his wife’s unwavering belief in his vision helped him risk it all to achieve his goals.
This is more than a business story—it’s a lesson in grit, strategy, and building a legacy. If you’re looking for inspiration, insights into financial strategy, or just a remarkable tale of triumph, this episode has it all.
