Yeah he started the band essentially, which is hilarious because he ended up being the guy that no one took seriously. JC and Justin got the solo deals when the group broke up and Chris who started everything got the short end of the stick. If you watch the Boy Band Con, which is a documentary on youtube, literally the next album Nsync put out would've been the first album they would've made real money from since Lou wouldn't have a percentage of it and boom they break up before Chris could get any money off of the album.
