Huge thank you to the CEO/Founder of Loud Records and Spring Sound Steve Rifkind for coming on my show for an interview! Steve talked about how the music business was failing before Covid hit, what he learned from his father Jules Rifkind, and creating the first Street Team. He spoke about his experience of managing New Edition when they made their Heart Break album. He got into not wanting to start Loud Records at first, then signing legendary acts such as Twista, Tha Alkaholiks, Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep, and Big Pun, and when he knew that he had a hit with Wu-Tang. He told the stories of where he was when Big Pun and Prodigy passed away. He also got into how 2Pac was his roommate and his Biggie Smalls story. He discussed getting the Miramax Films picture deal for Paid in Full. He then talked about having the last laugh when signing Akon to SRC, managing DMX, wanting to have a 60th birthday concert combined of artists from both Loud Records & SRC, and how he is expanding his current label Spring Sound.
