Hov has previously described Platt as his “brother” designated him as “the Obama of the music industry” when the publishing executive was the honoree at the annual City of Hope Spirit of Life dinner in October 2018.

“This man has worked his way up from a Denver DJ to be the highest-ranking Black executive,” he said.
