Wow!! What a journey!!!
This was some story people. I gotta thank L.A. for sharing with us his journey. This was the most inspirational 'book I've listened to' in years. I never knew the depth in which he was involved in the music game. I've followed him since the late 80's but only knew of him as the drummer in The Deele who was down with Babyface as a production team. Now I have a better understanding and appreciation for L.A. What bugged me out was learning about the 4 songs Anita Baker turned down. She HAS to be somewhere beating herself monthly like Lynn Whitfield in 'Thin Line' after the massive success those records had. There were so many "oh sh!+" & "really?" moments - all making for one excellent biography. Very educational also. Thanks L.A. I will be listening to this story again. The narrator was excellent. Not one dull moment. He was superb in articulating the story. L.A. - I can't thank you enough for putting this out.
Very engaging! I couldn't stop listening.
I've listen to so many books about record executives as well as artists and musicians. This book is very well done. The narrator is excellent and adds a lot of energy to the book. The story itself is interesting and inspiring. I highly recommend.
If you love music , you should buy this book.
If you love music, you should buy this book. I hope baby comes out with a book too.
This is a good book
I'm impressed about the gradual build of material this book is definitely a must read. It helps me to understand my favorite music much more
Excellent
I loved this book! While getting to know more about music mogul LA Reid, I was also treated to a lesson in music. Not only did I learn the back story on many of my favorite songs, but I was also exposed to a few different bands and singers that I had not previously heard. You'll want to listen to this one from start to finish and will think about it when you aren't listening.
