The Frank Ski and Wanda Morning Show was graced with the presence of LA Reid last week when he was in town to help his son Aaron Reid gain some media attenton for some new business venture.
Producer to the show, Nina Brown captured some rare footage of the mogul. Check out how Ried credits Pebbles with being the main on responsible for some the biggest hits. More video after the jump.
I was supposed to have a sit down with the head, and some say death of Def Jam, but it seems Mr. Reid couldn't fit a brutha into his hectic schedule.
What are we thinking about Aaron Reid venturing into music? I heard the acts he got signed to Def Jam and call me crazy, but they left much to be desired.
And Speaking of Frank Ski....
