Modern music and artistry would look and sound completely different if not for the groundbreaking contributions Michael Jackson gifted to the world.

I am a record executive and I shall be right there in your face with my records.

The deepest and most sincere feeling I get is when I meet an artist and they have that steel in their eyes and they have that fire and that passion and all they want is to be a star and to hear themselves on the radio.

I was a James Brown junkie as a kid.

The kids I talk to are convinced their generation will make the best music. And the greatest artists have yet to be discovered. I walk around with that thought every day.

Find your passion, and it's no longer work.
