Marc Anthony is unstoppable with the new entertainment company that he launched in 2015. Joining the "Magnus Media" team is multiple Grammy and Latin Grammy award winner Sergio George, who has partnered with the company to develop talent and music content.
The news was revealed by Billboard on Monday, announcing that the Puerto Rican singer has signed the renowned producer to his company, where it will oversee "George's interests in all areas of the entertainment industry throughout the worldwide." "I am extremely happy and blessed to join Marc Anthony and Michael Vega in this exciting venture with Magnus Media. Marc and I have been friends and music partners for over 25 years," said George in a statement, according to Billboard. "He is a true visionary with a vast amount of success ... I could not have entrusted better professionals to embark on this new career path with me and I am truly honored for this opportunity."
Anthony is also ecstatic to have partnered with the Puerto Rican pianist arranger and record producer, who is responsible for many of his successful studio albums such as "Otra Nota" and "Marc Anthony 3.0."
"Sergio has been an integral part of the success of my music career. He's a musical genius. I'm sure that with his knowledge and the business platform we're able to provide him at Magnus, we'll achieve even more incredible feats in music and other areas. I'm looking forward to this new stage of our professional relationship," revealed the "Vivir Mi Vida" singer.
In a recent interview with Billboard, Anthony opened up about his new venture as a businessman. “I’ve always said the concept of Magnus was born out of f---ing frustration. Some of the biggest influencers on the planet are Latino artists and athletes,” said Anthony, who nabbed the cover of Billboard's "The 2016 Latin Issue." "I’m really interested in seeing how this pans out. If it works, we’ll be miles ahead of a lot of people."
In addition to George, the company has signed sponsorship and co-management deals with many talents such as Alejandro Sanz, Gente De Zona and Chino & Nacho. Just eight months after launching the company, Anthony announced Magnus Sports, which boasts over 60 baseball players, headlined by Aroldis Chapman and Jorge Soler.
