Memphis-born rapper Juicy J recently revealed to XXL that he has hopes of being a CEO for a major record label in the future. He named Barry Weiss and L.A. Reid as idols who he'd like to follow in their career path.
"I'm hoping that Columbia makes me CEO of their record label. I hope. I'm just joking but that's what I want to do. A lot of people ask me what I want to do in the next five years, the next ten years and I'm like, "My goal is to be CEO of a major label." That's what I wanna do. Like L.A. Reid or Barry Weiss, I want to follow in the footsteps of those guys."
Juicy also knows that the path to being a CEO doesn't happen overnight, "It takes time. You gotta build your way up to be a CEO of major label. You can't just walk in there. They are just gonna let anybody in there. I'm looking for new talent. We just see what happens when I feel like that I get to that point where I want to sit down and have that conversation with these major labels I'll do it. Right now, I feel like I'm still grinding. Maybe in a year, I'll probably do it."
