Muse Signs With Wasserman

Muse, the genre-blending British rock institution that has spent the past two decades toggling between dystopian anxiety and symphonic bombast, has signed with Wasserman for representation in both North and South America. The band continues to be managed globally by Three Six Zero.

This new agency alignment comes on the heels of their latest single, Unravelling, released last month via Warner Music—a track that leans into their trademark tension-and-release formula with a polished edge that suggests they’re still quite comfortable taking a wrecking ball to existential dread.

Muse Spotify Monthly Listeners Growth (Jan-July 2025)

Muse currently boasts more than 19 million monthly listeners on Spotify, with London, Mexico City, Jakarta, São Paulo, and Santiago serving as their most rabid hubs. The band remains a global touring force, having headlined the likes of Rock in Rio, Reading and Leeds, and Mad Cool in recent years, with 2024 dates including stadium gigs and major festival appearances across Europe and South America.

For a band that has long made spectacle its signature—sci-fi operatics, LED everything, and lyrics that wouldn’t be out of place in a Philip K. Dick fever dream—this move signals that the Muse machine is far from unplugged.

Adidas’ “Superstar” campaign returns with cinematic flair and an all-star cast, highlighting the timeless influence of its iconic sneaker. Narrated by Samuel L. Jackson, the campaign kicks off with a moody teaser titled “Pyramids,” which compares the shoe’s cultural permanence to, well, actual pyramids. “No Wi-Fi. No food court. But 4,000 years later, people still fly across the world to see ‘em,” Jackson quips.

The full spot, “Clocks,” ups the tempo and the roster. Music legends Missy Elliott, GloRilla, Teezo Touchdown, and BLACKPINK’s Jennie appear alongside NBA star Anthony Edwards, skateboarding icon Mark Gonzales, and model-actress Gabbriette.

Mike Epps Signs with Artists First for Management

The Upshaws are in their final season, but Mike Epps isn’t going anywhere.

The veteran comic and actor has signed with Artists First for management, joining a roster that leans into multi-hyphenates and comedy heavyweights. He continues to be repped by UTA across film and TV, IAG for comedy touring, and Kovert Creative for publicity.

And while a lot of comedians are going podcast-microphone-in-the-basement, Epps is still a stage guy. He recently headlined the Fireworks in Paradise Comedy Festival in the Bahamas, adding a little sun to his signature brand of grit-and-glam. Before that? He suited up as a guest sideline reporter for the Big 3, casually trading punchlines for play-by-play.

Epps currently stars in and executive produces Netflix’s The Upshaws, which just announced its fifth and final season. He also recently appeared in The Underdoggs alongside Snoop Dogg and can be seen in the docu-special Buying Back the Block on HGTV, a more personal lens into his off-stage mission.

If you forgot that Mike Epps also writes, in 2017

Liquid Assets: The Celebrity Hydration Gold Rush

Water is the new tequila — and everyone from Logan Paul to Michelle Obama is trying to own your thirst.

Hydration used to be a functional category. PepsiCo built it with Gatorade. Coca-Cola responded with Powerade, then doubled down by acquiring BodyArmor for $8 billion. Unilever shelled out a reported $600 million for Liquid I.V. — a packet-based upstart with celebrity investors ranging from Kendall Jenner to Kevin Hart. It was

Gary Payton II Signs With WME for Representation

Gary Payton II, the defensive dynamo known for his relentless energy and impact off the bench, has signed with WME for representation, marking a new chapter in his off-court career. He was previously repped by Goodwin Sports Management.

Affectionately dubbed “The Mitten” — a nod to his Hall of Fame father, Gary Payton — Payton II has carved out his own niche in the NBA through elite perimeter defense, hustle plays, and a championship-winning stint with the Golden State Warriors in 2022. His journey has been anything but linear: after going undrafted in 2016, he bounced between G League stints and short-term NBA contracts before earning his role in Golden State’s rotation with tenacity and high-IQ play.

Beyond the hardwood, Payton has also made headlines for his advocacy work in support of children with learning disabilities, sharing his own experiences with dyslexia and ADHD to help reduce stigma and increase awareness.

Now with WME in his corner, Payton II seems poised to expand his presence beyond basketball — whether that’s in media, activism, or entrepreneurial ventures — all with the same defensive edge he

Travis Scott Enters His Smoothie Era with Erewhon Collab

Travis Scott is blending vibes—literally. The rapper and creative polymath has joined the Erewhon smoothie club with the debut of his first-ever signature drink: the “Storm Storm Smoothie,” named after his daughter, Stormi. Equal parts nutrient-dense and brand-aligned, the smoothie is the latest move in Scott’s ever-expanding empire of unexpected partnerships.

Curated by Scott himself (because of course), the drink brings his signature touch to Erewhon’s lineup—a menu already known for turning celebrity collaborations into $20 cultural events. He joins a tight club that includes BLACKPINK’s Lisa, Tyla, and Sabrina Carpenter, all of whom have previously lent their names (and presumably taste preferences) to the upscale grocery chain’s blender.

The Erewhon deal follows a bigger one: Scott was recently named Oakley’s first-ever Chief Visionary, tasked with shaping the brand’s creative future. And if you’re sensing a marketing wave building, you’re not wrong—Scott is also teasing the release

Shania Twain and Clearly Canadian Join Forces For New Campaign

In a campaign that feels like the closest thing to a national holiday for Gen X and elder millennials, Clearly Canadian has made a fizzy comeback—with Shania Twain in tow. The sparkling water brand, dormant in the ad world since 1991, is reintroducing itself with help from another icon who hasn’t aged a day and still knows how to sell a chorus: Twain, now rebranded as Canada’s most glamorous beverage bandit.

The commercial, produced by Ryan Reynolds’ Maximum Effort, plays like a cross between Indiana Jones and a REI fever dream. Shania sprints through the woods, dodges imaginary bears, and commandeers a cooler full of Clearly Canadian with the grace of someone who’s absolutely been here

Jack Harlow and Endrick Appear in New Balance’s Latest Tennis-Inspired Spot

New Balance has a sneaker called the T-500, which is not a robot but a tennis shoe — and in its latest campaign, it turns out that tennis can, in fact, be played inside a shoebox. A real one. With real football phenom Endrick volleying around not with a racket, but a soccer ball, because the rules are flexible in surreal brand worlds.

The new installment in New Balance’s “Quiet Please” series places the Real Madrid-bound striker in the middle of a match that’s less Wimbledon and more meta-sport satire. The kicker? It’s all happening inside an oversized shoebox. Watching from the sidelines of this box-universe are Endrick himself (life-sized this time) and model Gabriely Miranda, lounging at a country

Damson Idris Signs with ID-PR, Expanding His Power Team Behind the Scenes

Damson Idris has signed with ID-PR for public relations, further rounding out a behind-the-scenes team that’s as calculated and polished as his rise to stardom. He continues to be repped by CAA for talent, managed by M88, and represented in the UK by Laraview—a boutique firm helmed by Aira Idris, who, yes, is likely family. Hollywood may be built on relationships, but this one’s literally in the bloodline.

The London-born actor has emerged as one of his generation’s most versatile and magnetic performers, thanks in large part to his breakout role as Franklin Saint on Snowfall—the critically acclaimed FX drama co-created by John Singleton. For fans of the show (and there are many, who knows I might even have it playing in the background while I’m writing this), Idris’ transformation from a bright, entrepreneurial teen into a haunted kingpin was a masterclass in narrative slow burn and emotional precision. It also turned him into a must-watch name for casting directors and streaming platforms alike.

Since Snowfall wrapped its final season in 2023, Idris hasn’t slowed down. He starred opposite Anthony Mackie in Netflix’s sci-fi action film Outside the Wire, executive

Brian Lachman and Karina Thomas Join Corson Agency

Corson Agency just added 2 people to its agency. Brian Lachman has signed on as an agent, bringing with him a sonic arsenal of bass-driven and electronic talent including Dirty Audio, ALRT, Chamberlain, CODES, and Dack Janiels.

Lachman’s move is less about changing desks and more about signaling a deliberate push by Corson into the aggressive corners of the electronic and heavy music world. Previously Head of EDM and Metal at Prysm Talent Agency, Lachman wasn’t just booking club slots—he founded their Metal division, making him a bit of a genre diplomat in an agency world that often doesn’t know what to do with death growls and dubstep in the same spreadsheet.

It’s also a bit of a two-for-one deal. Karina Thomas, who joined Prysm as a junior agent and Lachman’s assistant in September of last year, is making the leap to Corson as well. Think of it less as a mentorship arc and more as a carefully orchestrated backstage pass from one agency ecosystem to another. Thomas had been quietly ascending while working closely with Lachman—proof that even in the pyrotechnic world of bass music, the assistant pipeline is still where careers get built.

Lachman also brings credibility from his time in

The All-American Rejects Sign With Biz3 for PR as Their Streaming Renaissance Continues

The All-American Rejects have officially signed with Biz3 for PR—a move that suggests they’re not just reminiscing about the glory days of mid-2000s radio, but actively writing their next chapter. The band continues to be repped by UTA for touring and managed by High Maintenance Management, forming a team that seems equal parts nostalgic and strategic, kind of like wearing a vintage band tee with a $1,000 leather jacket.

His new reps, Brandon Creed and Dani Russin, take over management duties from Danny Rukasin of Best Friends, signaling a strategic pivot toward scale and polish. On the PR front, he continues with Toast Press, while Wasserman handles his live bookings—because someone has to translate all that bedroom pop into sold-out rooms.

Edge of Paradise Signs With TKO Agency for Worldwide Representation (Excluding South America)

Edge of Paradise, the symphonic-metal-meets-cyberpunk-hard-rock band that sounds like the soundtrack to a dystopian space opera where androids have trust issues, has a new booking agency. The Kirby Organization (TKO) will now handle the band’s representation worldwide—everywhere except South America, where IDL Entertainment continues to hold court. FM Music Management remains firmly at the helm, guiding the group’s overall strategy like a gothic Gandalf.

Spotify puts their monthly listener count north of 41,000, with Helsinki, Los Angeles, Stockholm, Jakarta, and Ashburn, Virginia forming a surprisingly geographically scattered fan map. (What do Finnish metalheads and suburban Virginians have in common? Apparently, a taste for power vocals and post-apocalyptic guitar riffs.)

Touring-wise, the band has previously jumped on lineups with genre heavyweights like HammerFall and Sonata Arctica, which in metal circles is the equivalent of getting knighted at the castle gates.

Golden Brooks Signs With Industry Entertainment

Golden Brooks, the actress beloved for her breakout role as Maya Wilkes on the seminal UPN/CW series Girlfriends, has signed with Industry Entertainment for management. She’ll be repped by Dana Sims, joining a roster known for guiding talent across both prestige TV and commercial hits.

Brooks, a trained dancer and Yale School of Drama alum, has long been celebrated for her sharp comedic timing and emotional depth—traits that made Girlfriends a cultural touchstone and her character a fan favorite during its eight-season run. In recent years, she’s continued to stack credits that showcase her range, from the Starz crime drama Power Book II: Ghost to the Disney Channel series Saturdays.

Beyond acting, Brooks has directed short films and participated in women-focused creative panels and mentorship initiatives. Her move to Industry signals a continued push into new territory—on and off screen—at a time when the original Girlfriends generation is seeing renewed interest from both audiences and Hollywood execs looking to mine nostalgia with purpose.

Travis Scott Is Oakley’s First-Ever ‘Chief Visionary’

Oakley has tapped Travis Scott as its inaugural Chief Visionary, handing over the creative reins to the rapper and his Cactus Jack collective in a multi-year partnership designed to reshape the brand’s future—one pair of shades at a time.

The role isn’t just honorary. Scott will be involved in revamping Oakley’s classic styles, co-developing new eyewear and apparel, and starring in upcoming campaigns that blend Oakley’s action-sport DNA with the Cactus Jack universe. In doing so, he becomes part of a growing trend of brands handing real creative control to artists, echoing Ray-Ban’s recent appointment of A$AP Rocky as its

Tyler Rich Signs with Dynamic Talent International for Representation

Country artist Tyler Rich has signed with Dynamic Talent International for live representation worldwide excluding Canada, with Trevor Swenson serving as the point agent. He continues to be repped by Feldman Agency (who he signed with last week) for representation in Canada, and managed by Laffitte Management Group. He makes the move after previously being repped by CAA.

Rich first broke out with his 2018 debut single “The Difference,” which hit No. 1 on SiriusXM’s The Highway and eventually earned RIAA Gold certification. Since then, the Northern California native has carved out a fan-favorite lane in contemporary country, blending heartfelt lyrics with pop-friendly hooks across projects like Two Thousand Miles and I Know You Do. His 2022 single “Trucks Don’t Lie” and the more recent “Rather Be Us” have helped him maintain momentum as a consistent streaming presence, with over 482,000 monthly listeners on Spotify. His top cities include Brisbane, Sydney, Chicago, Denver, and Toronto—a reminder of his international resonance.

Duke Dumont Gets A New PR Team

Duke Dumont, the genre-shaping producer and DJ behind some of the most enduring dance anthems of the last decade, has tapped UK-based DawBell for PR representation. He continues to be managed by Redlight Management and represented by Wasserman for live bookings.

Best known for his breakout 2013 single “Need U (100%)” featuring AME—which hit No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart and earned a Grammy nomination—Dumont has remained a staple of global dance music with hits like “Ocean Drive,” “I Got U,” and “The Power.” His 2020 debut album Duality showcased his evolution from festival king to introspective producer, blending house, ambient, and soul-inflected electronica.

Today, he dropped his latest single, “I Need You Now,” via EMI—another melodic slow-burner with his signature emotional punch.

Dumont has played some of the biggest stages in the world, including Coachella, Tomorrowland, Creamfields, Ultra Music Festival, and Electric Daisy Carnival. With over 8.8 million monthly listeners on Spotify, his top markets—London, Sydney, Dublin, Melbourne, and Manchester—show

W&W Join Anna Agency For Representation

W&W have signed with Anna Agency for representation, reinforcing their standing as one of dance music’s most enduring festival juggernauts. The Dutch duo—Willem van Hanegem and Wardt van der Harst—continue to be managed by Rave Culture, the label and lifestyle brand they co-founded, which has evolved into a global platform for big-room, trance, and mainstage anthems.

Since exploding onto the scene in the early 2010s, W&W have cultivated a signature blend of euphoric builds and floor-rattling drops that helped define the modern festival era. Their breakout tracks like “Bigfoot,” “Thunder,” and “The Code” became instant EDM staples, propelling them onto the main stages of virtually every major electronic festival: think Tomorrowland, Ultra, EDC Las Vegas, and Creamfields. Their live sets—equal parts pyrotechnics, nostalgia, and unrelenting BPM—continue to draw massive crowds from Hamburg to Kuala Lumpur.

Most recently, the duo released “Bad,” a high-energy collaboration with KSHMR that dropped in April via Spinnin’ Records, tapping into the peak-hour energy they’ve long mastered. And with over 14

NLE Choppa Signs With Wasserman For Representation

The Memphis-born rapper—who went platinum at 16 and now commands north of 17.5 million monthly Spotify listeners—has built his brand on full-throttle energy, clean-living contradictions, and a catalogue that toggles between raw menace and surprisingly introspective bars.

Now, he’s turning that momentum into management muscle, signing with Wasserman for representation just as he hits the road on Lil Baby’s WHAM World Tour. It’s a move that aligns one of hip-hop’s youngest disruptors with one of entertainment’s
