Lena Waithe To Launch Hillman Grad Records In Partnership With Def Jam Recordings
The exclusive joint venture is set to develop the next generation of underrated artists for long-term success
Emmy award-winning multi-hyphenate Lena Waithe is partnering with Def Jam Recordings to launch Hillman Grad Records, an exclusive joint venture set to develop the next generation of underrated artists for long-term success.
“Music and storytelling have always gone hand in hand. And I think that’s because musicians are the storytellers we love the most,” said Waithe in an official statement. “They can take complex emotions and simplify it in four minutes, the same artist can sing about the revolution and falling in love. Music is a part of us. It’s so often connected to our fondest and sometimes our darkest memories. Musicians tell our story.
