About this listen

From time to time, it’s important to look back in time and reflect. This week, for Black History Month, we bring you back to the year 2021, when I had the honor to sit down with SUNY Old Westbury’s Chair of Communications Dr. Wayne Edwards. We explored his deep roots as a music executive with CBS, Mercury and Arista Records (among the many others) where he worked with executive greats like L.A. Reid. Edwards was also notorious for signing the legendary MC Hammer and brought the hit U Can’t Touch This to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts. We also talked about his journey to academia and reflections on his days in the industry as a black male. His new book, Can’t Touch This is out everywhere. Get your copy today!
