87: Music exec Marcus Spence gives a backstage tour on how to make it in the industry

By Be Here For A While

Marcus Spence is one of Rachael's best friends and Senoir VP of A&R at Mosley Music Group. Having worn many hats, Marcus is full of wisdom for aspiring artists and has worked with the likes of Justin Timberlake, One Republic, Ariana Grade, Chris Cornell, and of course, his (older) nephew, Timbaland. Tim plucked Marcus right out of college to come work with the family business at his label, which was a joint venture with Interscope at the time. Marcus knew he would either sink or swim -- and he soon proved he was a force to be reckoned with. His journey is an inspiring one and he shares a couple of his favorite stories on this episode of Be Here For A While. From his first meeting at Interscope with Jimmy Iovine, to developing Ryan Tedder into One Republic, to traveling the world with Tim on Justin Timberlake's tour, to upcoming new music teases with Sam Smith, if you're at all into music, you're gonna geek out hard.
