PULSE Records has formed a joint venture through Brent Faiyaz’s newly established creative agency ISO Supremacy, with Virginia artist Tommy Richman as the first signee, it was announced Monday (Aug. 21).
Richman currently serves as the opener for Faiyaz’s F-ck the World, It’s a Wasteland Tour and has caught traction with his songs “BUNKER / PREROLL” and ELECTRIFY TONIGHT.” Last year, Richman released his seven-track album Alligator.
“I’m grateful and amazed at the support from Brent, ISO Supremacy, and the team at PULSE Records, which motivates me,” says Richman in a press release. “To have the opportunity to open for Brent on his sold-out tour is an absolute honor and to sign to PULSE Records, a creative community that really understands music and supports artists, I couldn’t ask for more.”
Faiyaz’s relationship with PULSE stems from 2016 when he signed a publishing deal with PULSE Music Group. In 2022, he renewed his contract and followed that up with the release of his debut album, Wasteland, which topped the R&B / Hip-Hop Albums chart and bowed at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. Last week, Faiyaz announced the title of his creative agency, ISO Supremacy, which stands for In Search of Supremacy. There, Faiyaz operates as CEO, with Darren Xu as COO, Ashani Allick as head of A&R, Michael Alexander as project manager and Zac Matias as art director.
“My partnership with PULSE Music Group since Day 1 has been transformative,” says Faiyaz. “In launching my new label ISO Supremacy and partnering with PULSE Records, we’ve created this platform to give artists like Tommy Richman a creative home with the ability to scale global impact and a team that is accessible who keeps creativity at the forefront. We’re going to continue to make history.”
