I tell salespeople that all the time. Referrals are the shortest sales cycle you'll ever have.
Referrals are real. So always treat people good. Always do the best thing in a situation.
Your why might be your kids, but your because is the reason that your kids are your why. And so my because is to always fulfill promises because I never want to let someone down, right? Like when people depend on you, you never want to let them down. So I think my because... is to balance the books. One of the things I love about music producers is this right here, Rich.
You get to work with people that have crazy, cool egos. So what was it like working with Biggie and LL and Beyonce and DMX and all those folks?
Well, I'll say this, you know, Toya's B.I.G. didn't listen to anybody. He knew what he was doing and he did it. What's one of the projects you're most proud of? I can't give you one record, but one thing I'm super proud of is growing up.
