President of Island Records Darcus Beese OBE joins us for a very rare in depth conversation about his journey and the amazing things he has achieved along the way. He discusses growing up in Fulham, going from tea boy to president at Island Records, briefly losing his job at the company, his first hit signing with Sugar Babes, signing Amy Winehouse plus his stance on where major labels stand in today's ever changing music business.
