Resumen del Editor

Legendary music producer LA Reid - the man behind artists such as Mariah Carey, Toni Braxton, Kanye West, Rihanna, TLC, Outkast, Pink, Justin Bieber, and Usher - changed the music business forever. Now he tells his story, taking fans on an intimate tour of his life.

Sing to Me is a fascinating journey from Reid's 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 hit reality show The X Factor. Reid takes listeners behind the scenes of the music industry, charting his rise to fame and sharing stories of the countless singers he's met, nurtured, and molded into stars.

Part music memoir, part inspirational business guide, Sing to Me is full of Reid's trademark passion and ingenuity and introduces a multifaceted genius who continues to shape pop culture today.

Wonderful book!

I love the book! Would recommend to friends and colleagues I like how he talked about his entire life and the struggles throughout his career and personal life.

Music Man

Loved it!!!! Began listening on a road trip and couldn't stop once I arrived to my destination. So much insight to an era of music I loved and grew up on!!

Couldn't stop listening. Fascinating story.

Kinda slow beginning, but really great once it got going. Only knocks were the treatment of Shakir's death (way too vague for a major character and LA's best friend) and the last couple chapters which seemed to be a little less entertaining, although not due to a lack of content. In the epilogue he goes to some length to answer the question, "who is your favorite band you ever signed?" which I think was a good way to end since his story is not truly finished yet. The narrator was really good and appropriate.

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.

Sing to me

Inspiring, eye opening, a must read. I had no idea LA read was "The Man" behind all my favorite artist . It made me feel proud.

Love It

Very entertaining story with a great narration.
I really appreciated listening to LA Reid's story.

What a story

LA breaks it all down. If you love music and were there for 80's and 90's this will tie a lot together

EXCELLENT!!!

This book is a complete lesson on everything it takes to make your dreams and goals in life come true right before your eyes. Anyone who is serious about the business and or enjoyment of music over the last several decades needs to stop what they are doing and read this book. Narrated beautifully, keeping your attention from beginning to end.

Amazing

Highly recommended for owners' of music lable. Amazing narration on the different characters mentioned in the book.

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.
