by ROSTR

4batz signed an EP deal with OVO Sound.

4batz is managed by AB2 Agency/Amber Baker & booked by Wasserman Music.

Neko Bennett, known professionally as 4Batz, is a rising star in the American music scene, hailing from Dallas, Texas. Born on August 6, 2001, 4Batz has quickly made a name for himself with his unique blend of R&B and hip-hop. His breakthrough came with the release of his single "Act II: Date @ 8," which not only debuted at number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100 but also went viral on TikTok, amassing millions of streams across various platforms. The song's success caught the attention of industry heavyweights, leading to a major label bidding war and endorsements from icons like Kanye West and Drake. In early 2024, Drake remixed "Act II: Date @ 8" with 4Batz, further catapulting the young artist into the spotlight.

Mentioned:

4batz, OVO Sound
