Warner Music Group said on Thursday that Martin will over oversee the label as co-president alongside Gabrielle Peluso, while continuing on as executive vp of A&R at Atlantic, where he has worked with Roddy Ricch, Meek Mill, and the late Nipsey Hussle, among others.
Based
in Los Angeles, the Flint native will report to both Eliah
Seton, president of independent music & creator services,
WMG and Craig
Kallman, chairman & CEO, Atlantic Records.
Commenting on the appointment, Seton praised Martin’s "unflinching commitment" to his artists and described him as the "consummate A&R" who is "not only able to spot great talent but nurture that talent by spending endless hours in the studio crafting hit records. That’s exactly the sort of artist-first philosophy that we’re cultivating at the new Asylum."
