Billboard article on 2016 ASCAP Awards (http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/7348609/ascap-pop-music-awards-warnerchappell-walk-the-moon-john-mellencamp) :
Quote"You guys must be sick of me," Martin joked as he accepted his award from songwriter and acolyte Savan Kotecha.
"I wouldn't be standing here without my team...you guys really make me look good. I'm fortunate enough to wake up in the morning to work with all these people who help me move forward and all these amazing artists."
Max Wants To Work With Rihanna (http://www.billboard.com/max-martin-rihanna-song-write-wish-list)
QuoteBut it turns out he has a wish list of artists he'd still like to work with and at the very top is -- drum roll, please -- "Rihanna," Martin told Billboard on the ASCAP red carpet. "I'm a huge fan."
...
When asked why he and RiRi haven't collaborated yet, Martin didn't have a good reason. "I think that's how it goes sometimes," he said, before modestly adding, "We probably haven't written something that's good enough. She's doing fine."
about time!
and after that he shall eventually write something with Linkin Park!
Congratulations Max! amazing news, but not too surprising! I love those photos.
Yes, that would be exciting if Max worked with Rihanna.
B Steady, I agree too re Linkin Park - I love Linkin Park, so that would be incredible!!
I really love his smile. :)
He deserves all prices.
I love that Max always thanks his team and give them proper credit.
Congratz Max!
I remember reading she turned down Dj got us fallin in love..
I'd like to hear Rihanna do a Max song, but what about only songwriting? I feel like Max and his team aren't pushing the envelope lately.
I don't think it would hurt Max to step away from his mxm team from time to time.

oh yeah we all were wondering
For continuing the tradition, yes there is some hope left.
Thanks for the videos, it's nice to see Max speaking about Prince.
As for the Snus in Max's pocket, I can't see it in his pocket, so I'll take your word for it. I hope it means Max doesn't smoke anymore, I hope that stuff is healthier than cigarettes.
Finally!
