“As a brand with a deep heritage in music, we have a unique opportunity to use our resources and scale to make an impact on the next generation of hip-hop superstars,” said Todd Kaplan, VP of Marketing – Pepsi. “Pepsi Music Lab is a transformational opportunity for artists around the country, especially since they’ll be given the opportunity to partner with award-winning producer Pi’erre Bourne and learn from his extensive knowledge and skills.”

 

“I’m proud to have the chance to work with a brand like Pepsi that sees the value of giving the future generation a shot at growing and learning,” noted Pi’erre Bourne. “I can’t wait to see all the amazing music submitted on PepsiMusicLab.com and I’m even more excited to see what tracks we can create together over the course of this program.”

 

The brand will also host the Pepsi Music Lab Virtual Summit in February 2022 to share insights into how budding artists can take their music to new heights, including actionable advice on brand building, securing representation and more.
