“Latin music continues to thrive on the global stage, and even in the regions where it’s most passionately embraced, there is exciting potential for growth as we work to overcome challenges like lower monetization and economic hurdles.” — Jorge Mejia, President/CEO, Latin America & U.S. Latin https://lnkd.in/eHCx6ckp

Last night, SMP’s Chairman & CEO Jon Platt received recognition at the inaugural The Ivors Academy Honours— as a leader who never stops fighting for songwriters. His recognition, alongside RAYE’s fearless stand for artists, reminds us that the future of music belongs to those who demand fairness and amplify creators’ voices. As Jon said, ‘When a songwriting organization reaches out, that hits a bit different… it’s an honor to be recognized by an Academy that fights so hard on behalf of songwriters.’

TIME100 Next recognizes the world’s rising stars, and Tate McRae has made the list. Her footprint is undeniable: 8 million followers on Instagram, just over 13 million on TikTok, and nearly 55 million monthly listeners on Spotify. Her biggest song, “Greedy,” has cleared a billion streams across platforms. For McRae, an average night in 2025 means performing to tens of thousands of screaming fans in arenas around the world. But when the lights go down and she finally closes her eyes, the scenes that follow are far less glamorous. McRae says she doesn’t dream, she only has nightmares. She says that when she sleeps, her subconscious conjures dark images, like visions of “a massive spider crawling on my wall coming to attack me.” At eight, McRae was already channeling her angst into writing poetry and what she calls “dark and twisted” short stories. That tension—fear after the lights go out, fearlessness under them—sits at the core of McRae’s appeal. At 22, the dancer-turned-songwriter channels her energy into sleek, high-impact pop, building an arena-size community that sees itself in her extremes. “[It’s] so ironic that in front of 20,000 people I have way less fear than sitting in a small room,” she says. “I feel safe on stage, and I feel like this is my moment, where I can take it as far as I want.” Offstage, McRae considers herself a “raging introvert.” When she’s not on tour, she spends most of her nights at home (or, more realistically, a hotel room). She keeps a tight circle of friends (including fellow pop titan Olivia Rodrigo and actor Iris Apatow), and is intensely spiritual. She also tends to avoid social media whenever possible. “I think when people meet me, they get really confused because of my public persona [versus] who I am,” McRae says.

“Lenae explains that she’s been working with Dahi on the follow-up to “Bird’s Eye” over the past six or seven months, with SMP helping to nurture her vision. Helen Lazenby, A&R manager at SMP, explains that “it’s really just about not necessarily trying to change anything but just amplifying what she’s already built herself and what she and [manager] John [Bogaard] have built over the years through so much effort.” Thomas Krottinger, SVP, A&R at SMP, adds, “She’s unafraid of trying new things and not from a place of, what can I get out of this creative person to unlock the next chapter, but more like what do I want to explore? She’s listening to her gut and that’s what got her here.”” https://lnkd.in/ed6k9ARN

"I’m an optimist when it comes to music. The universe reminds us all the time that new talent is going to emerge. The session you set up eight months ago is going to land on an important album, or the songwriter you believed in many years ago is going to have a hit next year." https://lnkd.in/e-YQ4GiC
