Two Grammys and 210 million sold records later, Daniels is finally ready to emerge from the shadows to take his place as an accomplished executive, coupling his business acumen with his incomparable talent as one of the industry’s most prolific singer—songwriter—producer and vocal arrangers.

A chance meeting at a recording session with long time associate Rodney Jerkins marked the start of promising career for the then unknown producer and songwriter. Lending his innovative pen and vocal arrangements to some of R&B’s best and brightest, Daniels earlier works included placements with artists such as Tyrese, Deborah Cox, Brian McKnight, Brandy Brandy.

Almost overnight, Daniels became one of the industry's most respected and sought after writers/vocal arrangers. After writing and arranging hit records and full albums for Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, The Spice Girls, Brandy, and Alicia Keys, Daniels had the honor of being called upon to write for one of his musical heroes, the late great Michael Jackson. “Working with Michael Jackson was one of the greatest moments of my career,” recalls Daniels, “His contribution to the music industry is unparalleled, a true genius.”
