Weiss' talents as a manager were on display one recent night at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, where a group of Jive executives and he had gathered to watch a set by T-Pain. Stars from competing labels, Akon and Busta Rhymes, unexpectedly clambered onstage to join T-Pain, sending the already giddy crowd into bliss.
Upstairs, Weiss danced with colleagues and made no attempt to conceal his delight at the scene of screaming fans. "And the good news?" he said. "It didn't cost us anything."
