Disturbia” was probably the biggest moment because that was the first time she let the world see what was inside her. [“Disturbia”] was the 5th or 6th single off the album. I think she probably paid for a lot of it herself. And she said “We’re doing whatever I want. You can’t tell me anything.” And I said “No problem.” When I saw it together, I knew it was something special. It scared the **** out of the label. I think there was a conversation at one point about shelving it. It was one of those moments when she was kind of smarter than everyone else.
Excuse the messy wikipedia quote, but DEATH at the haters saying he's biased because he's worked with her so much. Yet look at his Career thus far.
That kinda proves the point, though. He's worked with her more than anyone else on the list you provided. That's like if Tim Burton said he thought Jonny Depp was the greatest actor in the world, and you tried to say there was no bias because Tim Burton has also worked with other actors.
