4batz signs with Wasserman
4batz signs with Wasserman
February 29, 2024
by ROSTR
4batz signed with Brent Smith & Lauren Marker of Wasserman Music for touring.
4batz is managed by Amber Baker & released by Vydia.
4batz, the stage name of Neko Bennett, is a rising star in the R&B genre, hailing from Dallas, Texas. His track "act ii: date @ 8" has catapulted him into the spotlight, sparking a major label bidding war among industry giants such as Republic Records, Atlantic Records, and Warner Records. His music, described as a blend of The-Dream and a pitched-up Brent Faiyaz, offers a fresh take on alt-R&B, steering clear of toxic themes and instead, delivering gentle, atmospheric, and yearning sounds. With just two songs released, 4batz has already amassed over 27 million streams on Spotify. His unique combination of trench visuals and whispery R&B in his "From the Block" performances has made him a viral sensation, with his music featuring in millions of TikTok videos.
Mentioned:
4batz, Brent Smith, Lauren Marker, Wasserman Music
