SURE TBHITS: PULSE, TOMMY BROWN JOIN FORCES

PULSE Music Group has signed a creative JV with hitmaker Tommy Brown, aka TBHits, as announced on Thursday by PMG Co-CEOs Josh Abraham and Scott Cutler and SVP/Head of Creative Ashley Calhoun. A renowned writer/producer/rapper, Brown has collaborated with Ariana Grande throughout her career. He's also worked on hits for Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Jhené Aiko, Chris Brown, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, BLACKPINK and more.

The JV's first signing is Taylor Hill, a Queens-born, L.A.-based producer, songwriter, artist and multi-instrumentalist. A frequent collaborator of Brown's, he's landed credits with Bieber, Summer Walker and Drake, among others. Hill is repped by Kristin Gregory and is set to release an EP this year.

“Tommy learned directly from production greats Royalty and Rodney Jerkins while working alongside them. Now he's built a team and a flourishing empire of his own. It makes perfect sense to work with Tommy to continue this tradition of great talent helping to light the torches for the talented people they work with and to help give him the platform to do so by signing Taylor Hill. We look forward to even more big things ahead,” reads a quote jointly attributed to Abraham and Cutler, who continue to instruct their team to keep us far from PULSE HQ.
