Legendary Music Publicist Howard Bloom Gets Mobilized
What made Prince PRINCE?
Note from Creative Director: I first met Howard Bloom in in 1978 or 1979. I was a producing a weekly syndicated column for a half dozen New Jersey newspapers and a few magazines, and Howard was running the Howard Bloom Organization. At the time, he had a very unique way of getting his clients what we called “INK.”
The Music Industry has changed radically since them, but it was his way of getting the performing artists to reveal their heart and their souls that helped him to be the architect of hundreds of artists campaigns. Some came to the H.B.O. to launch their careers, others came when they needed to jump start a new direction. His clients included some of the brightest stars in the musical galaxy, John Mellencamp. Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Styx. REO Speedwagon. Billy Idol. You might love some of them. You might not.
There is one thing for certain—he was able to go deep into the psyche of the artists and create campaigns that made them immortal. Mobilized News is proud to have Howard Bloom as part of our team. Soon you’ll be hearing more about The Howard Bloom Institute, discover his soon-to-be-released book, “The Tale of the Sexual Cosmos.” He’s going to be a frequent guest here at Mobilized. We hope the stories we both share will inspire and empower, inform and bring forth that very special part of you that has always been inside of you since your birth from the Cosmos.
