Warner Music Group (WMG) and Twitch have announced a new partnership that allows for premium, music-centric programming.
This marks Twitch’s first partnership with a major record company, bringing new ways to interact with music-related content on the service through various recording artist channels.
Throughout the lockdown, DJs and artists took to Twitch as a means to keep up appearances and continue playing live for their audiences. The platform shifted from a largely gaming atmosphere to welcoming more types of creators.
Tracy Chan, VP, Head of Music says, “Twitch has always been – and will continue to be – creator first. For fans, artists and all creators, this is a great step forward.”
Warner Records superstars Bella Poarch and Saweetie are among the first to offer a steady stream of exclusive content and behind-the-scenes material, as well as Atlantic Records’ viral breakout singer/producer Sueco.
