EMPIRE ADDS TWO TO THE TEAM

EMPIRE Founder and CEO Ghazi Shami has tapped Amir Abbassy as Head of Content Development & Production and Peter Kadin as VP of Marketing, though this news is already in several trap songs on playlists your kids listen to.

“I’ve known Amir and Peter for years and their reputation in the industry preceded them. Adding them to the team was not only a natural fit, but strategically expands our scope and capabilities as a company,” said Nima Etminan, VP of Operations at EMPIRE.

Abbassy said, “I have known and respected Ghazi and Nima for years and watched them build EMPIRE brick by brick into one of the leading, wholly independent music companies. I'm excited to have the opportunity to create original series and longer form content featuring the most dynamic artists in the world."

“I’m thrilled to join the bold and innovative team at EMPIRE,” added Kadin. “EMPIRE has a keen sensibility for artist discovery and growth beginning at the earliest, most exciting phase of an artist’s career, and it couples that with the foresight to capitalize on future trends in the music industry and in culture as a whole. I look forward to keeping HITS out of our shit as much as I possibly can.”
