Produktinformationen zu „Hitmaker - The Man and His Music “
One of the most powerful, famous executives in the history of the music industry, Tommy Mottola was there from Elvis to the iPod. He participated in the explosion of popular music when it had a personal, individual impact and a global, cultural influence on everything from fashion and advertising to politics and race. Now, in STARMAKER, Tommy recounts how a street kid from the Bronx became the music industry's most creative and successful CEO. For the first time, Mottola will lay bare the facts behind the most sensational aspects of his life. He reveals what it was like to be married to Mariah Carey, how Michael Jackson would call him in the wee hours begging Tommy to swear they'd sell 100 million records, his fascinating dealings with countless icons, and how he was sitting at the top when the music business imploded.
