A&R discovers new talent.-A&R do everything from assisting with song selection to choosing who will produce the album to deciding where it will be recorded. A&R are the liaison between the artist and all the other departments of the label.] MyGen Profile GeneratorCome see one of THE BEST FEMALE RAP ARTISTS ON THE WEST COAST, BLACK DYAMOND perform LIVE in Long Beach on August 20th!!!
