Jimmy is a very famous business located in the USA. He is famous for being an investor as well as CEO who is involved in doing business in the world of music. He is the one who joined forces with Dr. Dre and they made beat electronics.
Personal life
He was born on the 11th March 1953 in Brooklyn, NYC, the USA. His father’s name was Vince and e was employed as a shore man while his mother has been a secretary. We should also note that his family has an Italian background and that they did not always have what they wanted.
Namely, the family sometimes barely had the most needed things in life. However, the parents wanted to raise Jimmy the best they can so he grew up as a Christian that was raised in a Catholic manner. Jimmy even finished Catholic High School in NYC, i.e. in Brooklyn. He even decided to pursue an academic career in law. However, he decided not to pursue this career but to turn onto some other things.
Love relationships
We may say that he had a pretty bumpy road regarding the love life. First of all, his love with Bella Dona was great and they even got engaged. However, the couple just managed to be engaged for two years after which they decided to split. He has been single for a long time when he met Vicki.
He immediately fell in love with her and the two decided to get married. This marriage brought them four children and they were together for 24 years. However, things were not going as should, and the couple decided to divorce. After a while, he found a new love in Liberty Ross. After dating a while, the couple married.
Career
Jimmy did not have a good start in his career. He had a job as clearer in one of the local recording studios. He worked as a cleaner for several years before he got his chance. He got the chance to be an engineer in-studio and to work with Bruce and John. We may freely say that one of the most crucial years in his life was 1973. The reason for this is the fact that I got promoted to work in New York in a record plant studio.
Here, he has been involved in making some of the greatest hits on the musical scene. He became known in the USA and a little time passed until his fame was spread throughout the world. This happened in 1978 when he was one of the producers of Easter. Some of the songs there have been so popular that they were included in many top 40 charts and billboards around the globe.
After these successes, he was then involved in the production of many hits, and here are just some of them: Dаmn thе Тоrреdоеѕ, Нum Тоgеthеr, Тhе Неаrtbrеаkеrѕ, Gоt Gоѕе, Маkіng Моvіеѕ, Веllа Dоnnа, Ѕсrооgеd, Ѕіхtееn Саndlеѕ, 8 Міlе, Моrе Тhаn А Gаmе, Gеt Rісh Оr Dіе Тrуіng etc.
He was also involved in the foundation of Interscope records in 1990 and that is one of the most successful companies in the industry.
