¨I think, to me, it´s that this is a brand,¨ he says of his entrepreneurial adventures. ¨It´s a culture. We´ve taken notes from, like, older Def Jam, back when LL Cool J was there. You bought every record that came out of it. The last record was so hot, you didn´t know what the next record was going to be, but you knew you were going to buy it. Also, I think when you get to be a band of our size, corporate involvement is just a necessary evil, so I think, Why can´t you just be that corporation?´ Why do you need a middle man?¨

Gee, Fall Out Boy doesn't look like an emo band.
