UMG promo
NEW WORLD ORDER: Charlie Walk’s promo team at Republic is hitting the ground running on the batch of Island and Mercury records that have come under their purview in the UMG East realignment. These include hits by Avicii, American Authors and Neon Trees, which join the Republic promo staff’s already full slate of singles by Lorde, The Chainsmokers, Austin Mahone, Young Money and Tiesto, among others. What’s Team Republic’s plan for handling this added bounty? Meanwhile, Rick Sackheim’s Def Jam squad continues to focus on developing success stories Iggy Azalea and Afrojack (who will remain with Def Jam, as will Mariah Carey and Justin Bieber), along with breaking Urban/Rhythm Def Jam acts Jhene Aiko and YG.
