Max Lousada, Outgoing Warner Music CEO of Recorded Music, Pens Goodbye Note to Staff
Max Lousada, who will be exiting his role as Warner Music CEO of recorded music on Sept. 30, penned a goodbye note to staff in a memo today.
On Aug. 1, current WMG CEO Robert Kyncl announced a major restructuring of the label group, which included news of Lousada’s exit; his last day in his post will be Sept. 30, though he will remain in an advisory capacity through January. As part of the transition, a number of high-profile leaders at Warner are also leaving the company, including Atlantic Music Group CEO Julie Greenwald, who herself penned a farewell letter to staff yesterday (Sept. 26). Being there from the beginning with superstars like Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, Dua Lipa, and David Guetta; our partnerships with legends like Coldplay and Linkin Park; being entrusted with the catalogs of icons like David Bowie, Fleetwood Mac, Madonna, and Led Zeppelin; seeing artists like Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Uzi Vert, CKay, Zach Bryan, Myke Towers, Gunna, Lizzo, Jack Harlow, Benson Boone, and Charli xcx make their mark on culture…these and so many others are memories and relationships I will treasure.
