Makeba Riddick Featured Speaker for “Meet The Songwriters”

This is an all new series of four sessions with a different established songwriter guest at each one. We will hear their perspective on the industry, the craft of songwriting and how they contributed to the vital force that is contemporary song today!  There is a story behind every song and a career path that led each of them to success. What was their first big break? How did they make it happen? How do they approach their songwriting? We will play their songs and discover their process.

Makeba Riddick, featured speaker for November 8th, boasts a portfolio of writing credits that includes Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, Tony Braxton and Janet Jackson. Whether its Beyonce’s female anthem, “Upgrade You” or Jennifer Lopez’s musical career defining number one single “All I have,” Makeba has quietly churned out hits at a
