2. The Artists He Works With: I am really fortunate to work with artists that are incredibly talented and visionaries. It is truly one of my favourite things album to listen be a sounding board for the art that they create for the world, and see their growth as humans and artists.

3. NewYork.SG: I was very fortunate to have recently been a mentor of a program called newyork.sg, a career development program that aimed to help creatives from Singapore experience working and living in New York.
I was inspired by the two individuals I was mentoring. Jojo Tung and Chris Sim had a remarkably refreshing take on the world and it’s very inspiring to meet the next generation of creatives that are incredibly ambitious.
4. Kiki’s New York: There’s nothing better than a local, and Kiki’s is my weekly go to. Perhaps I’ve become a creature of habit — but the greek salad, and bifteki is my comfort food.

5. Data: A lot of people assume working in music means I’m just at shows and listening to music, but the truth is, there’s a healthy obsession with data and seeing what is connecting. Spotify for Artists is my home page, along with other proprietary tools our firm’s analytics team have created.
6. Football: Very happy to have football back, and the ability to play in New York.
7. Loewe’s Tomato Candle: I am obsessed with this candle, to a point where my wife bought me the large version of it for the apartment. It’s refreshing, and a beautiful scent.
8. Orange County: I am very fortunate where Orange County has become our second home. It is where my in-laws live, and where my wife grew up. It’s a wonderful retreat from New York, and something I have appreciated more in time.

Akoko London: Akoko was a West African inspired tasting menu of nine dishes hat we had back in March when we went to London and possibly the best meal of the year for me. It’s an evening I still dream about — a perfect evening which we were able to share with dear friends of ours.
