Salaam Remi on music, business, Amy Winehouse – and always learning
Description
Welcome to the latest MBW Podcast – this time a special podcast entry in our long-running World's Greatest Producers series.
Salaam Remi is, by any measure, a World's Greatest Producer. A Grammy winner, he's worked closely – and made timeless hits – with musical legends from Nas to Amy Winehouse, Alicia Keys, The Fugees, and many more. He's also an accomplished music biz executive and entrepreneur.
On this podcast, Salaam joins MBW founder, Tim Ingham, to discuss topics including techniques for staying creatively hungry, why he decided to stop actively producing records on his 50th birthday, and what he's learned working with some of the most important artists of all time.
Salaam also discusses his own music rights management company, Analog Metaverse, and its new partnership with Warner Chappell Music. (WCM's CEO is Remi's long-time friend, Guy Moot.)
MBW's World's Greatest Producers series is supported by Hipgnosis.
