aren't y'all the ones who swore this girl was the second coming of Gaga, Britney and Madonna etc? Did they have debut albums that barely lasted 6 weeks on the charts? Whats the truth?

she could spend as many weeks on the hot 100 as the sum of 1+4+3  poor fadty perrished

A Chat With Columbia Records' Chairman and CEO Ron Perry on Breaking New Acts, TikTok Stars and the Next Big Genre

Does this era of the business have the patience it takes to break new acts these days? The discussion tends to be about quick virality but like you said, it takes years. 

I don't think the business has a choice. It's always been this way, except for a few years around TikTok's height of virality during the pandemic. It's always been this way to sign, develop and work with the best artists in the world, and we know it's going to take a while. Nothing is overnight. 

 

Speaking of TikTok, Addison Rae blew up as a star there years ago. She came in with a mood board for her pitch to you. Did you know she'd work?

We knew each other through mutual friends for a good amount of time. She came here, we did a meeting with her management and with (Columbia Records EVP) Julian Swirsky. I knew how great she was as an artist from a visual standpoint, we'd already built some trust between us. So when she brought the book in, she told us the vision, we simply said, 'cool, let's do it.' Ever since then, I think she shattered any perception anyone may have had of her. I think she's an undeniable pop contender. I think she broke all expectations. And I think she's moving culture and building an audience. Her album is probably the most forward-looking new pop albums of the year. And I think she deserves all of it.

 

Did you, as a label think that there was much of a need to try and break down this pre-conceived perception of her as this OG TikTok star?

Honestly, she had her plan and we were fully on board with it. She had the vision, and we aligned together as a team looking to support that vision. She's quite a few steps ahead of everyone, honestly.

ijbol terrible submissions

FIAG and HF are prob my fave songs of hers but girl Headphones is your 2nd most acclaimed single by FAR after Diet Pepsi

lit nobody saw the HF video and no cover art when Ethan is very well known/respected in the industry + not sub anything for Pop Dance which was the only category she had a slight chance?

but she wasn't getting nominated for anything anyway so

BBC's 15 best albums of 2025 so far

Addison Rae – Addison 
At the end of her Coachella set in April, Charli XCX passed on the mantle of last year's "Brat summer", by assigning summer 2025 to a variety of artists, including her friend and collaborator Addison Rae. And if Rae's self-titled debut LP hasn't quite had the zeitgeist-defining impact of Brat, then it can nevertheless lay claim to being one of the pop moments of the year so far. After her initial rise to fame as a TikTokker posting viral dance videos, last year's hypnotic, Lana Del Rey-adjacent single Diet Pepsi showed Rae was far more than a digital-era novelty act. And what followed here was equally compelling, a succession of tracks pairing dreamy ambience with exquisite, layered production. Highlights include the shimmering, iridescent Aquamarine and superbly snappy paean to the "glamorous life" Fame is a Gun: Rae's primary persona throughout is that of sun-kissed sybarite. It makes for a combination of charismatic frivolity and serious artistry that somehow feels like just what the musical landscape needs right now.
