Corporate Activity - Mike Caren Executive VP A&R/Atlantic Records
CEO/Artist Publishing Group/Warner Chappell
I'm looking to sign some new producers to APG/Warner Chappell Publishing Company. I have had great success finding producers on the PMP (found Frank E on the PMP and have got him placements with Plies, Chamillionaire, Madonna, Lil Wayne, Sean Kingston, 3 6 Mafia, Flo Rida, Travis McCoy, DJ Tiesto, Dirt Nasty, T-Pain, Omar Cruz, Pitbull, etc) and want to find the next superstar producer. Some of the qualities I'm looking for include
Corporate Activity - Jullian Boothe VP A&R/Slip-N-Slide Records
As far as producers I've been working with a kid name Mad Screws who produced the first single on the new Jagged Edge project. I'm also working with some producers I discovered off the PMP called The Sound Twins, incredible guys. I was looking through the site and I ran across their page, started listening to some of their songs and it was actually a song that was posted as 'sold' and then I called them like 'oh no I need that, we will buy it back'. Then they started sending me more music and I've been using them ever since so you will hear a lot coming from them this year. They'll definitely be on Honorebel's project and I'm working on some other stuff with them with Trina and some of our other new Slip N Slide artists as well. I'm also working with another kid Youngfyre who's been bringing a lot of heat to the table. Matter of fact my man that works with me Young Money actually found Youngfyre off the PMP and then he brought him to me. Both Youngfyre and the Sound Twins are incredible new producers and I look forward to doing my best to get them some hot placements for 2010 and beyond.
The Red Pill - Attention Please
For some the pursuit of success in the music business is nothing more than a quick dollar hustle. For others it's more about fame and notoriety than art or financial independence. Some just like to express themselves through music and would love nothing more than to make enough money to do it full time. Others, while having respect for the culture of music are driven by the entrepreneurial opportunities available and see themselves creating and owning the next Universal Records. Maybe it's a combination of all the above. No matter which description fits your situation best, success in meeting your objectives will largely depend on how you answer the following two questions which are:
•1 How many people know your product/service exists?
•2 How many people care enough about your product/service to invest?
