About his addition to the company, Roppo states, “Over the past two decades, Dan has established himself as one of the most respected executives in the game – with good reason! He’s equally tenacious and savvy when it comes to breaking new acts and augmenting the legacies of superstars, and I’ve admired his work from afar for many years. I’m honored to formally welcome him to Republic Records.”
“As an outsider looking in, I was always in awe of Republic Record’s ability to develop and break new talent while establishing themselves as the industry leader, so I am thrilled and honored to be joining the team. I am incredibly grateful to Roppo, Monte, Avery, and Charlie for the opportunity” adds Cohen.
