Bobby Springsteen on SoundBetter

Former major label A&R involved with gold and platinum projects from artists including The Notorious B.I.G., Faith Evans, Shyne, and 98 Degrees. I help artists identify their strongest records, improve direction, and prepare music for a competitive market. I provide feedback, song strategy, hooks, arrangements, and industry-level record develop.

I provide sound direction, artist development, and commercial positioning for artists preparing to expand beyond their current market.

My background includes experience across artist development, songwriting, and music strategy, contributing to commercially released projects within the music industry. Additional experience includes licensing and catalog strategy, and creative development support across multiple genres.

My focus is helping artists strengthen overall direction, market readiness, and release strategy for the U.S. and global market. Services may include feedback on commercial viability, strongest records, sound consistency, release direction, and artist positioning.

I also provide access to music and producers aligned with an artist’s sound and long-term direction when appropriate.

This service is best suited for artists, management teams, and developing acts that already have music in motion and are looking for experienced industry perspective and direction.

Send me your music, your goals, and where you feel stuck — whether it’s hooks, song structure, production, song selection, or overall creative direction. I’ll help you approach your music with the same A&R perspective used to develop records at the highest level.

    Not only is Bobby one of the most sincere and compassionate people I have ever met, he is a creative visionary. I consider myself lucky to have crossed paths with him. He understands how to evoke the truth out of an artist.

    Bobby Springsteen was the senior A&R on my album, "Child Of The Ghetto" that was released on Bad Boy records in 2001. He was directly involved in the development of my entire project on a clerical and production level. His professionalism, personability, and talent is memorable to this day.

    I have known Bobby 20+ years and worked with him on numerous major label projects where he was the A&R. Excellent character, vision and work drive.

    I worked alongside my brother Bobby when he was handling multiple projects as A&R at Motown Records—I was producing & writing alongside partner, legendary producer DJ Eddie F. Bobby has decades of critically acclaimed success both in managing the business of music as well as the creative side, as a songwriter/producer himself. His ear & musical integrity are unmatched, as well as his level of support for artists including before they became superstars. Bobby is a TRUE legend in the music industry!

    I, Livio Harris, CEO of Who's Harris Entertainment LLC, with 36 years of experience across all sides of the industry as an artist on Uptown Records, manager, publisher, and catalog broker, have had the pleasure of working with Bobby Springsteen for many years. He was instrumental in helping me build a U.K. publishing company, Notting Hill Music, into a phenomenal company in the U.S. Bobby assisted us in signing great songwriters and producers associated with artists such as Nelly, Michael Jackson, among many others. Notting Hill grew from a startup into a mult-million-dollar company in the U.S

    Bobby has always had a great ear for music.
    He picked the beat for Bad Boy Fpr Life for my group when I was a Bad Boy Artist but Diddy wanted the beat for himself but thankfully I was asked to write his verse for the song but none of that happens without Bobby’s vision.
    Please to work with.
