Since expanding his role, Rayn has assembled what he calls “the Avengers of independent music.” That includes Daniel Gonzalez of DGL Ventures, a seasoned artist manager and executive strategist handling over $30 million in transactions, from catalogue sales to sponsorships. He manages Sickick’s business operations and oversees legal affairs for Tory Lanez. “Reflecting on the past year, he says, “guiding my client, Sickick, through the complexities of scaling his business as a fully independent global artist… It’s been a masterclass in creative entrepreneurship and strategic execution.”
