Why Would I Do That to Jennifer Lopez? | Revisionist History

from Broken Record with Rick Rubin, Malcolm Gladwell, Bruce Headlam and Justin Richmond · host Pushkin Industries

In the latest season of Revisionist History, Malcolm Gladwell is looking at the origins and consequences of mistakes—why we make them, the context in which we make them, and what happens after we make them. Years ago a music producer named Irv Gotti—a hitmaker for Jay-Z, Ja Rule, and Ashanti—was tapped by Sony Music to make a record with Jennifer Lopez. They wanted a big hit. And Irv delivered. But then he made the biggest mistake of his career. Find more episodes of Revisionist History wherever you get podcasts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
