| Field Trip Recordings, in partnership with Capitol Records, has announced today the signing of dynamic and multi-talented producer/artist/content creator PlaqueBoyMax. This marks a continuation of the relationship between PlaqueBoyMax and Field Trip Recordings, as Zack Bia has been co-managing the 22-year-old visionary behind the scenes for the past six months, with Field Trip delivering the records. Now, with the support of both label teams, PlaqueBoyMax will not only grow his highly sought-after, unique franchise series but also release music as a solo artist, marrying the worlds of streaming content and music in a way that only he can.Max is a true pioneer and is changing the current landscape of entertainment. We are here to help scale and operate his vision as he continues to merge all of these creative fields. The goal is to build directly out of the core 5$TAR community first and foremost, always leading with Max’s taste and collaborations that are true to him. We look forward to helping him bring his world to life in ways that the industry hasn’t seen before. Just like Max is changing the way music gets made – on a live stream in front of thousands – the Field Trip and Capitol teams are changing the way music is released: clearing and delivering the songs as they’re being made to deliver fans with the most seamless experience possible. I want to send a special message of appreciation to Ricky Banks, Matt Kalish, and our Faze family as well as Tom and our Capitol family for continuing to empower our company in supporting unique artists. I know we are all beyond excited to be in Max’s corner. – Zack Bia, Founder & President, Field Trip Recordings Zack Bia and the Field Trip team have been silent partners with PlaqueBoyMax since January, working in conjunction with the FaZe Clan, setting up artist collaborations including Central Cee, Fred Again, Skepta, xaviersobased, and more. The team also organized Max’s debut live show (with over 50k people watching live on Twitch) featuring a stacked lineup of underground stars like LAZER DIM 700 and D Savage, amongst others. Widely thought of as a pioneer within the streaming community, PlaqueBoyMax has seen enormous success building his brand and fanbase (5$TAR) over the years. He’s revolutionized the intersection of streaming and immediate music consumption, which will continue to grow under the empowerment of the new label deal. In the coming months, Max will build upon the massive success of the unique IP series ‘In The Booth’ and ‘Song Wars’ amongst other yet-to-be-created verticals. He’ll also debut a number of location-specific mixtapes, consisting of records with new and established talent recorded live on stream in each specific city, as well as releasing his upcoming debut mixtape of solo rap music called fiveforever. |
