Recently, Brent Faiyaz has been making all sorts of waves throughout the industry. Since dropping his 2022 album Wasteland, he’s kept quite a low profile. However, a few days ago he announced via his Instagram that he was hitting the road on a world tour. The F*CK THE WORLD IT’S A WASTELAND tour will begin its first leg starting July 16th. While we all know Brent for his nostalgic, dreamy, and toxic sounds, however, he’s also a savvy businessman.
According to HipHopnmore.com, Brent Faiyaz is making headlines with another big announcement. Faiyaz is inking a new partnership with Steve Stout’s UnitedMasters. The two plan to form a creative agency that acts as a hub for the R&B star to do his independent work from now on. Although it wasn’t a part of the press release, Billboard revealed that the deal is estimated around $50 million. This is a major announcement , due to many starting to believe that Brent Faiyaz wasn’t independent as he claims to be.
