Robert Rooks

International Director of Operations

I oversaw the acquisition and merges of investment capital. One of these acquisitions was the offshore company United Assurance Company, Ltd., which provides insurance cover in respect of high risks, such as entertainment.

In 1977, wanting to become involved in the Movie Industry and independent in the Music Industry, I started my own production company, Applejuice Productions. We worked with Rudy Ray Moore to create films such as "Disco Godfather" and "Just My Luck" and the sitcom pilot "Kings Pawn"

I promoted the Gospel Label and later went on to represent comedy artists such as Redd Foxx & Rude Ray Moore. Also promoted and produced rap artists such as Curtis Blow, the originator of hip hop.

I promoted numerous artists including BB King, John Lee Hooker, Count Basie, and Ike & Tina Turner .

I was responsible for the US market region from the Mississippi and all points west. Worked with over 200 radio stations to promote recording artists.
