Pt 2. Working with Childhood Heroes, Coldplay and Kanye West and Trusting God's Timing — Angel Lopez

He has been groomed and mentored by his musical idol, legendary producer Timbaland. Angel nearly missed his calling. Before he found success in the music business, he came within inches of leaving his path in music to pursue what would have been an arduous career to becoming a gemologist.
