This was such a tough category, with so many talented and hard-working folks, who have devoted much time, energy and, I’m sure, finances, to helping to further their artists’ careers. It’s a real honor and blessing to have been given the award this year. It’s a testimony to the incredible artists that I have had the pleasure of working with. This is their award. I’m so proud of Xander, too! We’ve been together the longest of all my artists, and he deserves the recognition, for sure!”
