Get ready to groove, because Nuno Rocha is here to rock the music world! As the new Head of Business Development for ONErpm, Nuno is diving into the hottest emerging music markets and making some serious waves. This Nashville-based powerhouse is now setting its sights on Portugal, Lusophone and Francophone Africa, and the MENA region under Nuno's energetic leadership.
Nuno's got a stellar track record, and with his new office opening in Luanda this fall, Angola better gear up for some serious tunes. Meanwhile, Morocco, Tunisia, and Egypt are readying themselves for a music revolution as ONErpm turns up the volume and amps up growth.
The Portuguese office isn't holding back either. With a dynamic team working alongside Brazil's marketing maestros, they’re pushing for massive support across Africa's Lusophone territories. Talk about a vibrant mix!
“We’re all about building regional hubs that are super connected but also have the freedom to do their own thing,” says Nuno. “And believe me, when it comes to understanding trends or acting on the latest intel, consumer data and insights are our best friends!”
Nuno isn't just a business whiz; he's also got an ear for real talent. Before conquering ONErpm, he owned DJ Selektion, a label where he worked with legends like Fat Joe, Fatman Scoop, and many more. He even had a hand in organizing some of Portugal’s biggest music festivals, like RFM Beach Power. Cool, right?
Fast forward to today, Nuno's kicking goals with achievements like signing up incredible acts such as MAGIC, Yuri de Cunha, Firebeatz, and Badoxa. Under his guidance, Hélio Batalha scored big at the Cabo Verde Music Awards, while Badoxa crushed it with over 90 million views on YouTube!
The excitement doesn't stop there. Band VIZINHOS rocketed to fame, amassing a whopping 90 million streams and holding Spotify’s top spot in Portugal for over 100 days. Not to mention, Angolan superstar Chelsea Dinorath is soaring high with 36 million YouTube views, all thanks to ONErpm's amazing support!
In Egypt, Nuno's working magic with Nayrouz Abouzid, spotlighting talents like Shahyn and DJ Mubarak, who had an incredible streaming spike of 760,000%! And Mond? He's celebrating 61 million streams in just four months!
With a knack for artist development and digital strategy, Nuno Rocha proves that proximity, personalization, and rock-solid partnerships are the keys to his groundbreaking success.
