Here's how I can help
How I can help
Adrian evaluates music assets from a senior label strategy perspective. He looks beyond whether a song is strong and asks whether the artist's long-term positioning works, whether the repertoire can become a sustainable catalog, whether the rights structure supports commercialization, whether the team can execute, and whether release partnerships, remixes, sync, brand partnerships, touring and international expansion can create higher asset value.
I've helped with
