DASH DOTS THE i's ON GEFFEN CONTRACT

Aaron “Dash” Sherrod is returning to the Interscope family, taking on the newly created job of president of urban A&R at Geffen Records.

He'll oversee the signing and development of artists as he did back when he was VP of A&R at Interscope, signing Playboi Carti, Juice WRLD and Pierre Bourne. He will be based in Santa Monica.

“Over the years, Dash has shown an impressive acumen at identifying, signing and developing hugely talented artists,” IGA ruler John Janick noted. “I’m excited to have him on the Geffen team.”

Said Geffen President Tom March, “Dash is an enormously talented A&R executive who brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience. I’m looking forward to working alongside him at Geffen.”

Sherrod most recently served as SVP of A&R at RCA, where he signed Nardo Wick and was executive producer of the original soundtrack album for Judas and the Black Messiah. Earlier in his career, he worked as a composer, engineer, video director and manager, with clients including 808 Mafia, DJ Toomp, Lil Bibby, G Herbo, ASAP Rocky and others.

“Dash is without a doubt one of the most talented, knowledgeable and creative A&R executives with whom I’ve ever worked,” said IGA EVP/Co-Head of A&R Nicole Wyskoarko. “His singular vision and deep relationships within the creative community will be hugely beneficial to our artists and our Geffen team.”
