Josh Owen writing for Beyoncé
AN UNKNOWN songwriter has been snapped up by hip-hop titan Jay-Z's Roc Nation outfit to write songs for superstar Beyonce.
Josh Owen, 25, has just signed a publishing deal with the huge label - even though he only set out to get the odd job as a session guitarist.
After being encouraged to try his hand as a songwriter, he landed the lucrative, chance of a lifetime deal to write for superstar rapper Hova.
Josh, from Glasgow, told Email: "It is quite hard to believe all this. They have people like Beyonce, Rihanna, the Ting Tings. Big players. For a lad writing demos in his studio in Glasgow to be connected with the biggest American stars is amazing.
"Roc Nation's plan is for me to write for these massive stars. I get an email each week asking me to write such and such a song for a certain artist.
"When that mail drops saying the artist is Beyonce, it will be pretty amazing."
*Happy to see Beyonce working with NEW talent*
