With L.A. Reid‘s exit from Epic Records following sexual harassment allegations, the vacancy as CEO is up for grabs and Mr. We The Best wants to be considered for it.
According to Page Six insider, DJ Khaled has been lobbying for the job and wants to run the label.
Of course, others in the building have other opinions about the DJ being boss, calling him a ‘hype machine’ and not an executive who is fit for running a position like that.
So who is a plausible replacement?
“My guess is [Sony Music UK CEO] Jason Iley will run either Columbia or Epic or they will take [RCA president] Tom Corson . . . and put him at Columbia or Epic.”
The “THEY DON’T WANT ME TO BE CEO” campaign starts tomorrow.
In related news, his new single “I’m The One” with Justin Bieber, Chance The Rapper, Quavo and Lil Wayne has now been certified platinum by the RIAA.
