What people say about us

  • “I co-created a YouTube channel with a man named James, a statistics genius and video editor. We formed a friendship and he ended up helping me with Justin's channel.

    The success of his videos snowballed in the blink of an eye. I would have needed to dedicate every single hour of my day to keep track of everything. James helped me pick up the slack. Soon enough, Justin was a YouTube celebrity.

    Thanks, James."

    Pattie Mallette, Justin Bieber’s mother
    (from her autobiography ‘Nowhere But Up’)

  • “James was an absolute pleasure to work with in the recording studio - respectful, professional, and incredibly perceptive.

    While filming he was highly aware of boundaries, seamlessly blending into the background to capture authentic, invaluable footage. His insightful approach allowed him to nurture talent in a way that felt effortless, making his presence powerful and almost invisible at the same time. He was a real pro!”

    Jake Leiske-Willis, Justin Bieber’s first vocal coach

  • “Working with James at Rapid Discovery Media was an incredible experience. His dedication, wisdom, creativity, and insight were instrumental in helping develop Christian’s platform.

    I’m truly grateful for the support and expertise he brought to the table as well as his friendship. Using him was a game-changer!”

    Sandi Beadles, mother of Caitlin and Christian Beadles

  • “I was inspired by Rapid Discovery Media to pursue a career in the music industry at a young age. Their innovation and dedication opened my eyes to the possibilities in this field, motivating me to keep learning and growing.

    Today, I am proud to be working in the music industry, continuing the journey that RDM once sparked in me.''

    Rowan W., PR at Greenhouse Talent NL

  • “Having James as my producer/mentor at such a young age changed my life, opening doors I didn’t even know existed. One of them being Artificial Intelligence.

    Now, at 16 years of age, I run an AI growth firm helping professional realtors scale with it. Pretty flipping wild, right? I don’t believe any of that would’ve happened without one man. And that man’s name? James Johnson.”
