All the split sheets, all the contracts, all the royalty percentage splits, everything that's confusing. And managing a studio, a busy studio is a master class in business management, because you're touching every single part of the recording process from top to bottom. And we want to make it a family company." And so Khloe was managing the studio. Her dad said, "I would like you to come back and help me do this. One of the biggest studios in the country, and definitely one of the most popular ones in Las Vegas.

Khloe Churko: We are a business management firm in a traditional sense of handling income and expenses as any music business management firm would.
