In our exclusive bonus episode, we dive into conversations with the creators of Apple Music’s renowned Up Next program and managers of up-and-coming artist Gracie Abrams. Chris Hovsepian and JJ Corsini, the Senior Vice Presidents of Artist Development at Universal Music Group, reveal how they innovate and stay ahead of the curve while the music landscape changes at lightning speed. They also dig into how they championed stars-in-the-making through the Up Next program at Apple Music (Billie Eilish, Conan Gray, BENEE, Khalid, Juice WRLD, and more) and how artists today are changing the game. That’s a wrap on Season One!
