Jeffrey
Azoff

It can be daunting to follow in the footsteps of someone who has accomplished much in his industry, so does that challenge the son of music macher Irving Azoff? Well, Azoffs aren’t easily intimidated. The younger Azoff’s management company built a roster chockablock with music stars, including Harry Styles, Roddy Ricch, Anderson .Paak and James Blake. He plays roles in Global Music Rights, the newest of the four U.S. performance rights organizations; the advocacy group Music Artists Coalition, which seeks fair compensation for creators in the digital age; and the executive leadership council of nonprofit Black Music Action Coalition, where is is co-chair. That schedule left just enough time to join his father and A&R exec Shawn “Tubby” Holiday to launch Giant Music Publishing in May, signing Cardi B producer DJ SwanQo.
