Father and Awful Records Announce Creative Partnership with Rca Records FATHER AND AWFUL RECORDS ANNOUNCE CREATIVE PARTNERSHIP WITH RCA RECORDS From Left to Right: Karl Fricker, Director A&R, RCA Records, George Clark III, Marketing Manager, RCA Records, Keith Naftaly, Head of A&R, RCA Records, Kobi Ansong, Co-President, Awful Records, Father, Gerry Newton, Co-President, Awful Records, Peter Edge, Chairman & CEO, RCA Records, John Fleckenstein, Co-President, RCA Records, Joe Riccitelli, Co-President, RCA Records. [June 21, 2018 – New York, NY] Father and Awful Records have announced today their creative partnership with RCA Records. The newly formed partnership, empowers Awful to sign artists to Awful Records/RCA Records, or develop artists via the The Orchard distribution system. The first release will be Father’s forthcoming solo effort, set for release this fall, amongst a slew of other artist releases that will be announced soon. On signing with RCA Records, Father said: “Awful has done a lot for indie music. We showed many just how far you can get on your own. Now we finally have the opportunity to take things further and grander with RCA Records. Not only that, it was given to us on our own terms. When you put as much thought into the music as we do, you want it to be heard.” About Father: If anyone could be called leader of the modern mess of a rap crew—Awful Records—it would be Father. He was an art school dropout who founded “Awful Media Group” as a video and branding service in Atlanta, later turning to music as an experiment. He made an unlikely first breakthrough with stripped down anthems like “Nokia” and “Look At Wrist” in 2014. With the help of ILoveMakokonnen, Key!, and a slew of Awful Records’ artists, Father’s first project, Young Hot Ebony (2014), would mark the birth of what is known today as ‘Soundcloudrap’. Since then, he has carved himself out an independent sweet spot, having grown and maintained a core fan base with two more full-length projects: Who’s Gonna Get F*cked First? (2015) and I’m A Piece of Sh*t (2016). About Awful Records: About seven years ago, Awful Records began as a group of Atlanta friends who lived and made art together - from paintings and films to music and photography. After the release of Father’s “Look At Wrist”, the collective jumped from underground Atlanta obscurity to internet-legend status, jumpstarting the careers of Playboi Carti, ABRA and Tommy Genesis, to name a few. With Awful’s creative partnership with RCA, the label aims to continue to push raw and honest content - music, apparel, events - for more people to enjoy and be inspired. About RCA Records: RCA Records is a Division of Sony Music Entertainment. RCA includes a diverse roster of internationally renowned artists representing all genres of music, including Justin Timberlake, P!NK, Alicia Keys, Miley Cyrus, Foo Fighters, D'Angelo, A$AP Rocky, Kings Of Leon, Britney Spears, Pentatonix, Chris Brown, Christina Aguilera, Dave Matthews Band, ZAYN, Shakira, R. Kelly, Enrique Iglesias, Kesha, Buddy Guy, Daughtry, Three Days Grace, Tool, Kirk Franklin, among others; critically acclaimed and chart topping artists including Childish Gambino, Khalid, G-Eazy, SZA, Mark Ronson, Miguel, Ray LaMontagne, Bryson Tiller, Cam, Cage The Elephant, MAGIC!, Bleachers, Jazmine Sullivan, Tinashe, A$AP Ferg, A$AP Mob, Grizzly Bear, Gavin DeGraw, WALK THE MOON, Kid Ink and Elle King; burgeoning artists MUNA, Wolf Alice, Kygo, Martin Garrix, Ro James, Grace, Becky G., Sam Dew, and many more.

  • Rca Records to Release American Idol: Greatest Moments on October 1
    THE RCA RECORDS LABEL ___________________________________________ RCA RECORDS TO RELEASE AMERICAN IDOL: GREATEST MOMENTS ON OCTOBER 1 On the heels of crowning Kelly Clarkson as America's newest pop superstar, RCA Records is proud to announce the release of American Idol: Greatest Moments on Oct. 1. The first full-length album of material from Fox's smash summer television hit, "American Idol," will include four songs by Clarkson, two by runner-up Justin Guarini, a song each by the remaining eight finalists, and “California Dreamin’” performed by all ten. All 14 tracks on American Idol: Greatest Moments, produced by Steve Lipson (Backstreet Boys, Annie Lennox), were performed on "American Idol" during the final weeks of the reality-based television barnburner. In addition to Kelly and Justin, the show's remaining eight finalists featured on the album include Nikki McKibbon, Tamyra Gray, EJay Day, RJ Helton, AJ Gil, Ryan Starr, Christina Christian, and Jim Verraros. Producer Steve Lipson, who put the compilation together in an unprecedented two-weeks time, finds a range of pop gems on the album. "I think Kelly's version of ‘Natural Woman' is really strong. Her vocals are brilliant. She sold me on the song completely. I like Christina's 'Ain't No Sunshine.' I think she got the emotion of it across well. Nikki is very good as well -- very underestimated. And Tamyra is brilliant too so there's not much more to say about her." RCA Records will follow American Idol: Greatest Moments with the debut album from “American Idol” champion Kelly Clarkson in the first quarter of 2003.
