AIKO JOINS WARNER CHAPPELL

Ryan Press has brought Jhené Aiko into the Warner Chappell family, signing the Def Jam star to an exclusive co-publishing deal.

Said Press, Warner Chappell Music President of A&R, U.S., “Jhené’s star power only continues to rise, and it's been exciting to see her become one of the industry’s most influential acts. With each new release, she reveals a different side of her musical talent and captivates listeners with her artistry and lyrics. She’s established herself as a defining voice of modern R&B, and we’re so proud to be working with Jhené, her manager, Taz [Askew], and the whole team at ArtClub.”

Beyond her 2020 breakthrough album, Chilombo, the artist has collaborated with Drake, John Legend, Summer Walker and many others.

Aiko, who's known Press “for a long time,” praised Warner Chappell: “They treat their songwriters like family, and it’s great to be on this new journey together.”
