Jessie J has signed with UTA for North American representation, marking what appears to be the opening act of her next reinvention arc. She remains with CAA for the rest of the world, is managed by Darco Artist Partnerships, and handled on the PR front by Satellite 414. So, yes, the infrastructure is in place—and now the routing map is getting updated.

She’s also back with new music, independently released no less. “No Secrets”, which dropped this month, is her first new single in four years and sounds like both a confessional and a warning shot. The track is raw, melodic, and deeply Jessie J—a reminder that she’s still got the vocal firepower to peel paint off arena walls, even if she’s choosing to use it a little more sparingly now. There’s also a Ryan Tedder-produced single on deck (“Living My Best Life”), which is either a promise or a branding exercise, depending on your level of optimism.

Belgian hard dance phenom MANDY has signed with Corson Agency for North American representation, a move that makes perfect sense if you’ve ever seen her set—and less sense if you’re trying to track BPMs below 150. She’ll continue to be repped by Platform Artist Agency in Belgium and managed globally by One World Artists, which is to say: the team is tight, and the sound is louder than your heartbeat.

MANDY blew in back in 2017 with “RaggaDrop,” a viral, rave-leaning banger that made hardstyle briefly feel like it could break through to the masses. It didn’t (entirely), but MANDY did—thanks to relentless touring, a cultish fanbase, and a string of releases that kept pushing the limits of what you can reasonably call “melodic.”

Chappell Roan has signed with Foundations Music for management, marking a pivotal moment in her career following a significant year of achievements. She continues to be represented by Wasserman for live bookings, with PR support from Biz3 in the U.S. and Satellite 414 in the U.K.

Roan's ascent in the music industry has been marked by her 2024 hit single, “Good Luck, Babe!”, which propelled her into the spotlight and significantly boosted the success of her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. The single debuted at number 77 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 6, while the album reached number 2 on the Billboard 200, solidifying her status as a rising star.

Grupo Frontera has signed with TBA Agency for live representation, a move that solidifies their meteoric rise from regional cover band to genre-redefining global act. Management stays with Rimas Music. PR? That’s still The Exclusive Agency. But touring—touring is now TBA’s domain, which makes sense, because everybody wants in on the Norteño boom, and Grupo Frontera is currently the house band for the movement.

Formed in 2022 (yes, you read that right), the Texas-based group rocketed to virality with their cover of Morat’s “No Se Va”—a TikTok-fueled slow burn that turned into real chart heat. Then came “Bebé Dame” with Fuerza Regida, which hit No. 1 on the Hot Latin Songs chart and climbed all the way to No. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. In a pre-streaming era, that might’ve been seen as a fluke. In today’s ecosystem, it was the trailer for what’s now looking like a franchise.

By 2023, they were collaborating with Bad Bunny on “Un x100to,” which broke the

Lincoln Jesser has signed with UTA for representation, a move that suggests the alt-pop-electronica shapeshifter is leveling up from bedroom beat-maker to main stage architect. He continues to be managed by Moodswing, the crew that’s been steering his genre-bending, synth-laced, emotionally vulnerable rocket since he first cracked open SoundCloud with sun-drenched heartbreak.

If you’ve been sleeping: Jesser is one of those artists whose Spotify metrics (currently over 269,000 monthly listeners) suggest he’s not just buzzing—he’s quietly embedding himself into playlists from Los Angeles to Sydney, with New York City, Chicago, and Melbourne rounding out the top cities. His latest release, Quema Quema via TH3RD BRAIN, blends Latin-tinged groove and Jesser’s signature moody pop aesthetic into something that sounds like the soundtrack to a night out you almost regret—but not quite.

A former touring member of Foster the People, Jesser’s got live chops too.

That Mexican OT has signed with WME for worldwide representation, which feels less like a signing and more like a coronation. Because when you’re a cowboy-hat-wearing, corrido-tinged, Houston-by-way-of-Bay-City firestarter with a beard that’s become its own subgenre of Southern rap, you don’t just join a roster—you kick the doors open and say “We in here.”

His management remains with Good Money Global, and PR with Audible Treats, both of whom have had front-row seats to the rocket ride. That Mexican OT—real name Virgil René Gazca—has carved out a lane so specific it might as well come with a custom belt buckle. His breakout 2023 single “Johnny Dang,” featuring Paul Wall and Drodi, didn’t just nod to Houston’s rap legacy—it iced it out in full grillz and then put it on TikTok where it racked up tens of millions of views.

Orville Peck has signed with Wasserman for global representation, stepping into a bigger spotlight just as the fringe on his mask starts to glimmer under the Broadway lights. Yes, Broadway. Peck recently made his stage debut as the Emcee in the Cabaret revival at the August Wilson Theatre, because apparently the next logical step after rhinestone-studded country crooner is… rhinestone-studded Berlin cabaret host. His point agent at Wasserman is Douglas Singer.

Peck’s career, which began as a masked mystery and somehow evolved into one of the most subversively mainstream acts in country music, has now reached another inflection point. His third studio album Stampede (2024) was a duet-heavy flex featuring Kylie Minogue, Elton John, and a particularly poignant cover with Willie Nelson that doubled as a love letter to queer cowboy culture. It was the musical equivalent of a rhinestone lasso spinning across genres, generations, and gender norms.
