Hill rose to his current position late last year and has since been busy building his team of “rock stars” who regularly provide powerful content for BET. Currently, Hill is working with Chris “Ludacris” Bridges to produce “The Label,” a docu-series that will tell the story of the rise (and sometimes fall) of classic record labels. Through his relationships in Hollywood and the music industry, Hill creates incredible programming including First Lady Michelle Obama attending and honoring the M.A.D. Girls at Black Girls Rock in April.
