RAISING KANE


RCA Nashville/Zone 4's Kane Brown hit two career milestones today with his single "What Ifs"—off his self-titled debut album. "What Ifs" not only broke into the Top 20 at Country radio, it was also certified gold by the RIAA. RIAA and Sony Music staff surprised Brown at the palatial WME offices with the plaque, as well as a celebration honoring the achievement, where he's pictured above. Seen before an informative briefing by Rob Goldstone about opportunities at the Moscow Ritz-Carlton are (l-r) UMPG’s Kent Earls, Sony Music Nashville’s Jim Catino, Ken Robold and label chief Randy Goodman; EFG Management’s Martha Earls; Brown; SMN’s Steve Hodges; and WME’s Braeden Rountree and Rob Beckham.

Country music's rising star rejoiced in the gold certification of breakout single "Used To Love You Sober"—from Brown's Chapter 1 EPearlier this year, but "What Ifs" is his first track to reach the Top 20 at radio.

Kane Brown
debuted at #1 on the Country album charts in December of 2016, and Brown's currently coming to the end of a national tour.
