In this installment of “Valerie Jackson In Conversation,” Valerie talks with Jan Smith – one of the most sought after vocal producers in the music industry.
“Mama Jan,” as she is more affectionately known, is the Grammy nominated producer and Georgia Music Hall of Fame inductee. Jan Smith Studios is widely credited for voice producing such high profile clients as The Band Perry, India Arie, Drake, Justin Bieber, Sugarland and Usher.
Smith tells Jackson why music artists will wait years to be given the opportunity to train under her tutelage in studio and breaks down what it takes to be a success as an artist.
She also shares how her background as a singer-songwriter led her to her production work today and how her own life lessons allow her to positively mentor so many Billboard-topping music artists.
