Top 3 Value Bombs

1. You have to have something that cuts through. It could be an artist's voice, their tone, the melodies, the lyric. But ultimately, when you find that combination of all of these and then someone has a very unique personality and persona, those are the makings of a real superstar.

2. There's no expiration date on great.

3, Put the work in. If you put in 3 times more time and hard work, there would be so much gap between the players and it would be so hard for them to catch up. You don't always see the results straight away. Be willing to work overtime. You can't cheat the work.
