Teddy Riley<\/a> helped form what R&B music is today, and our Phoenix cameraman was able to sit down and interview him for A. Smith & Co’s<\/a> “Unsung” Music Series.<\/p>\n

“Unsung’s” documentary series highlights artists to learn about where they came from, the search for their “big break” and where they are now. Riley is a singer-songwriter and record producer who has worked with Michael Jackson, Doug E. Fresh<\/a>, Usher<\/a> and many more.<\/p>\n

I traveled from Phoenix to Las Vegas<\/a> for the A. Smith shoots. What a gorgeous drive! I made it once for the Riley interview and again for a Mike City interview. City is also a singer-songwriter and record producer. He’s also the founder and CEO of Unsung. It was a pleasure being able to capture his story and how he has made his ideas thrive.<\/p>\n
