I don't necessarily want people to know all my intimate feelings about Tracey.
bring music people whether
There are people that bring artists to me to look at it and it's a question of whether I like their music and their look and if I think there's something they have that makes them different and commercial.

I think that whenever there's a good script we try to make that happen, but it's all based off of a good story, a good script, but I don't believe you should do it just because it's African-American.

There's artists that I'm working with on a new label of mine. Foxy Nova and Supa Nova.
