ENTERTAINMENT ONE has inked a new deal with LATIN entertainment company LA COMMISSION, to create a new LATIN music label. LA COMMISSION CEO ARTIE PABON is joined by VP CARLOS JAVIER CASILLAS, a force behind the development of LATIN music’s first urban genre record label, MACHETE MUSIC.
The deal was spearheaded by PABON and eONE Pres./Rock & Urban ALAN GRUNBLATT, with industry legend JERRY BLAIR acting as the chief liaison officer between the two companies.
The first signing under this deal is Latin trap superstar BRYANT MYERS. With over 113 million plays on SPOTIFY, 2.3 million INSTAGRAM followers and one million YOUTUBE subscribers, MYERS will launch the new label with the release of his first single, "Pa Pasar El Rato," later this month. He will also perform at the MEGA Summer Concerts at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN in NEW YORK on THURSDAY, AUGUST 24th.
"As we focus on taking our music business to the next level, partnering with JERRY and ARTIE is very exciting," GRUNBLATT said. "Our goal will be to make the partnership between LA COMMISSION and eONE the top independent LATIN entertainment destination in the country, encompassing music, TV, and film. BRYANT MYERS is a superstar in the making!"
Said PABON, "It is no longer a secret that LATIN music is a global language and key alliances like this one are necessary for expansion. BRYANT MYERS will make history."
"With the monumental shift that's occurring in the music business, this is the best time to be partnering with eONE," BLAIR said. "It's the disruptive, artist-focused music company for today and the future. It operates like a speed boat, not a barge. eONE's management team has assembled a 'what's next is now' prototype that all future music companies will follow. ARTIE PABON and LA COMMISSION promote over 200 concert dates a year. They know what's new and trending better than anyone I know in the market. They now have BRYANT MYERS positioned to become an International superstar. We look forward to being the place where artists will be nurtured, and will thrive."
Following MYERS’ single and forthcoming album, the new label will release music by several other notable LATIN artists. Film and television projects are expected to be announced soon.
