Vincent Herbert

Introduction

Vincent Herbert has been the man in the background of many famous recording artists the last ten years. Herbert is described as "shy" by the people who has been working with him, maybe a good characteristic for a producer? What is certain is his huge commitment and interest in music, which he obviously successfully channels into hit song after hit song.

Background

Vincent Herbert is the music mastermind who has created hits for Destiny’s Child, Michael Jackson, Jo Jo, Stevie Wonder and many more. He hired Lady Gaga as a music writer and was quick to sign her to his lable Streamline Records, an imprint of Interscope Records.

Meeting with Lady Gaga

The 19-year old Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta decided to put all her effort in her music. She rejected Def Jam that discovered her at that age, but got a new chance when her ex-boyfriend and co-writer Rob Fusari sent the songs he produced with her to his friend Vincent Herbert, producer and record executive at Streamline records, an imprint of Interscope Records, in January 2008.

This became the big breakthrough for young Lady Gaga, since she got the opportunity to write songs for big artists such as the Pussycat Dolls, Fergie and Britney Spears.

Lady Gaga credits Herbert as the man who discovered her, saying “I really feel like we made pop history, and we’re going to keep doing it.”

Videos

Vincent Herbert is really shy, and is rarely seen in public happenings. These are however two videos of Herbert, one with Lady Gaga in it as well.
