Personal Quote:

[on Frank Ocean] You talk to some people in this business and you get the sense that they're very focused on radio: what will be a hit or won't be a hit. You never get that from Frank. The focus is on creating something that's beautiful, that's great art...I think Frank's career will be defined by his fearlessness and his artistic freedom. See more »

Trivia:

He and his wife Chrissy Teigen are expecting a 1st child together. See more »
