Imagine Dragons played their first two live shows on my stage in Las Vegas at The Farm. Glad to have hosted them.

Great interview Howard! I especially liked the bit where Dan explained about how Mormons send you out on door to door sales pitch.

To narrow it down,

1. The song most likely was released after mid 2011.
2. The song was most likely produced by Alex Da Kid because that's who he worked with back then to ghost write.
3. The song did "well" but was not a big hit.

Most likely artist:
Skylar Grey: a picture of her in studio was posted by the band in 2012 and Alex Da Kid produced a lot of her songs back then.

Come on someone on here knows spill the beans

I'm pretty sure one of this songs is Hustle by Pink. You can even hear Dan's voice on Ad-libs

He wrote "Mein Teil" for Rammstein.

[TheWooRoblox]

The kid laroi ghost wrote a song for imagine dragons, he also does it for many artists.

[MedievalMonkey]

"complicated situation"? sounds like Ke$ha

[MikesVegas]

Michael Bolton started writing songs for artists to put food on the table before he became big.

[drewpee]

The song has to be something tan mom contacted him to do for her

[User-jpsj]

It's definitely Too Close by Alex Clare

[saibhargav]

Daaaan, help me finish my song ideas I’m posting on my YouTube channel!!!!
Check ‘em out.
Produce my album

I too was raised in a Christian cult and I wasn’t allowed to listen to “worldly” music growing up. As a kid, I snuck around just to listen to the local secular radio stations, and my love for music has never left me. After escaping that religion, I taught myself guitar in my early 20’s and have been attempting to write songs ever since.
I’ve had some pretty decent ideas if I can say so myself, lol

Man, it would be a dream come true to have a professional who actually knows how to write a song to produce an idea of mine.
