"My favorite musician represented by Capitol Records would be Halsey. I like her because of the authenticity in her lyrics, and the fact that she sticks to her true image and genuine self. She writes a lot of her music which is a big likability factor, in my opinion."

My favorite band of all time that's represented by Capitol would be The Bee Gees. Growing up, their sound always stuck out to me along with their high falsettos, production, and overall writing of their songs. The vibe their music emits is special. The current newer artist that I appreciate most on Capitol would be Queen Naija. As a Detroiter, I appreciate her growth and she hasn't really missed over the last couple of years with her music.
