[After recently landing a songwriter role on Fox’s hit “Empire” series, J.R. Rotem tells SOHH about the possibility of his music collaborators like Rick Ross and Jason DeRulo landing cameos.]
I definitely cannot give away any secrets about what they have on-screen because I know they always want to have people caught off-guard.
To be honest, I’ve worked with most of the people in the urban and pop community. I would be excited to see any of them. Rick Ross, even some of my artists like Jason DeRulo, Sean Kingston, [could make] cameos on there.
It’s cool because it centers on some urban scenes and some urban music. But as you saw last season, even people like Courtney Love are making cameos.
Anything can happen.

You could see a country star on there. You could see something super pop.
The fictional label is portrayed as really just a major label that has some urban acts and I think you’re going to see all different characters from all different types of genres.
