Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike have signed with Independent Artist Group for representation, which is probably less about a change in direction and more about updating the machinery behind one of dance music’s most persistent export operations.

The Belgian-Greek brothers have built their careers on scale: crowd sizes, BPMs, and enough pyrotechnics to register on climate maps. Ranked No. 1 on DJ Mag’s Top 100 list in both 2015 and 2019 (and reliably hovering around No. 2 in between), they’ve been EDM royalty for over a decade—and like most royalty, their empire runs on infrastructure. Smash The House, their label founded in 2010, still churns out festival bait with algorithmic precision.

Their catalog includes massive crossover moments like “Tremor” with Martin Garrix and “Higher Place” with Ne-Yo, but the real asset is their presence. Think Tomorrowland, Creamfields, EDC, UNTOLD, and

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
