Did You Actually Make Eye Contact With Them?
A lot of people always ask you about your choice to get the artist's permission before you actually do the song. And I know when dealing with a team of people it's a little more difficult than actually dealing with artists themselves usually. So then I have to seek out the original artist and contact them and hope they have a good sense of humor. That's happened a small handful of times, the most famous example like probably being Kurt Cobain. He said yeah okay that's funny. Now I heard a story one time about you and Prince at the American Music Awards and it was said that you received a letter from Prince's lawyer saying you cannot make eye contact with them at the awards.
