Alongside the announcement of the two expansions, Damien Scott was announced as the president of the label and Candace Rodney will be the executive vice president and the president of Dreamville Studios.

 

Ibrahim Hamad, co-founder of the label  adds that “Dreamville is a brand we built from the ground up and the appointments of Damien and Candace allows us to take the company to levels “we’ve always dreamed of while keeping our core values and beliefs at the forefront of our expansion.”

 

Scott and Rodney’s roles will be “overseeing the day-to-day operations of Dreamville Ventures as well as its build-out which will include verticals across music, TV and film, publishing, apparel and live events.”

 

Prior to now, Scott was the editor-in-chief at Complex Media, the VP of Content and Development and helped to launch the legendary ComplexCon Festival.
