More Artist Friendly is on the way. Following conversations with Ryan Cabrera, Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes, and 2 Chainz, Lionel Richie will join Joel Madden on the latest episode of the series.
Richie is a legend in his own right, making several classic love songs through the years. However, he revealed the profound overwhelm of stardom in a near-500-page memoir, Truly, last year, documenting his journey from a “painfully shy” child to a stadium-sized musician. Ahead of a busy summer, Madden sits down with the music icon, American Idol judge, and his father-in-law for an unfiltered look at what it means to build a legacy. From a standing ovation at the Oscars to the real weight of fame, family, and survival in the industry, this is a conversation 20 years in the making.
