Over the last twenty-five years, music producer and record man LA Reid -- the man behind artists Toni Braxton, Kanye West, Rihanna, TLC, Outkast, Mariah Carey, Pink, Justin Bieber, and Usher -- has changed the music business forever. In addition to discovering some of the biggest pop stars on the planet, he has shaped some of the most memorable and unforgettable hits of the last two generations, creating an impressive legacy of talent discovery and hit records. Now, he chronicles the fascinating journey from his small-town R&B roots in Cincinnati, Ohio, and his work as a drummer to his fame as a Grammy Award-winning music producer and his gig as a judge on the reality TV show, The X Factor. He goes behind the scenes of the music industry, charting his rise to fame and sharing stories of the countless artists he's met, nurtured, and molded into stars. The early days of artists TLC, Usher, Pink, Kanye West, and Justin Bieber -- a detailed look at what life was like for stars at the start of their meteoric rise and how he always seemed to know who would be the next big thing. Part music memoir, part business story of climbing to the top, this book showcases Reid's trademark passion and ingenuity and introduces a multifaceted genius who continues to shape pop culture today. L.A. Reid began his music career as a drummer. In 1989 he was the co-founder of LaFace Records, and he was the chairman and CEO of the Island Def Jam Music Group for six years.
