"-- The New York Times

"Inspirational, touching and powerful."-- Gayle King, "O: The Oprah Magazine"

""Make It Happen" is a guide for all of you who want to succeed in the music industry -- and in life. Kevin provides the tools he has developed from his experiences and mistakes, and teaches you how to apply them to your own journey."

-- Terry M. Williams, author of "Stay Strong: Simple Life Lessons for Teens", and founder of the Stay Strong Foundation

"Kevin Liles has a timeless, if unexpected, message for the hip-hop generation. Beneath the bling-bling and often obscured by outsized and outrageous personalities, business success still requires vision, focus, discipline and execution. The styles may change, but the basics remain the same."

-- Price M. Cobbs, MD

I encourage everyone to read his book and follow his advice." -- Bob Johnson, founder, Black Entertainment Television
