Steve Stoute Talks The Music Biz, Nas & Hip Hop Beef! from the.LIFE Files on Vimeo.

It was my pleasure to watch this idea generating interview with Steve Stoute. The folks over at the Life Files put together some good questions for the media mogul and advertising industry hall of famer. My favorite moment comes around 2:11 into the interview. Stoute attempts to answer who will be the next Steve Stoute. He mentions Jason Geter (Grand Hustle/Manager of T.I.), DJ Mormel(sp) (Interscope/Manager of Polow da Don), Maverick Carter (CEO, LRMR), and Gee Roberson (Music Manager of Kanye West). It is always good to know who is closest to the thrown; makes it easier to refine your strategy for a takeover.
