Music
See also: Music executiveIn the music industry, the executive producer of an album is often in control of the business side of production, distribution and promotion, but more often than not, is in charge of the entire project as is a director. They decide what the albums themes will be, create the image for the artist, decide which songs will be singles and have the final say on every single song's completion. It is the executive producer who makes the decision as to when the song is finished and ready to be shown to the public.
In some instances, an executive producer can be a person who "discovered" a particular act, or someone who represents an act, either as an agent or a lawyer.

Allaying both their fury and my passion
With its sweet air; thence have I followed it,
Or it hath drawn me rather.”

And with the girls be handy.”
