“Music is the oldest memory I have in my mind when I think back as a small
child about 3 years old sitting in on recording sessions with my mother as she
sung background vocals for Randy Cotton, those moments were epic for me.
Even at that age music was inspiring; I can remember requesting my mom to
sing the old 80’s jams to me while she was mopping the floors in the house
and the excitement that ignited in me is one that I’ll hold on to forever.
(Kapital)”

about the legacy of the music first and everything else second because I’m an
artist at heart. (Kapital)”

objective now is to discover and develop raw talent – passionate recording
stars. As an A&R executive at Slip N Slide Records it is my mission to
introduce the stars of tomorrow to our emblem and create timeless records
that will live in the hearts and minds of the people forever. I’m looking for
artist; producers and songwriters (Hip-Hop, R&B, Pop) that will be successful
and then work closely and extensively with them to find the right chemistry.
The process is very much a nurturing one to ensure the artist impacts at the
right time with the right material.
I’m relying on my gut feeling, good business skills and my solid understanding
of the music marketplace to achieve desired success. It's my job to identify
good music, but also to have an excellent knowledge of the urban music scene
and to understand what sells.”
