You always have to know when to bow out. You bow out while you are on top.

I live for opening doors for the young generation of creators. If we do nothing else with our success, let's open up some doors.

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 think of myself as a producer who tries to bring the best out of everyone, whether that be an artist, songwriter or a publicist.
