Scott Samuel "Scooter" Braun (/brɔːn/ BRAWN; born June 18, 1981) is an American talent manager, entrepreneur, record executive, and the CEO of Hybe America, the North American subsidiary of South Korean entertainment company Hybe Corporation.[4][5][6] He is credited with having discovered Canadian singer Justin Bieber in 2008, whose success foresaw the establishment of Braun's record label RBMG Records, a joint venture with R&B singer Usher. Braun has also served in career management for artists including Ariana Grande, Kanye West, Demi Lovato, J Balvin, Ozuna, Dan + Shay, and the Kid Laroi, among others.[7][8]

He is also the founder of Schoolboy Records, co-founder of TQ Ventures and Mythos Studios, and founder of Ithaca Holdings, whose 2019 acquisition of Big Machine Records resulted in a publicized dispute with Taylor Swift.[2][9][10] Throughout his career, Braun organized concerts and tours including March for Our Lives and Hand in Hand, in support of victims of gun violence and natural disaster relief.[11][12] Active in film and television, he served as executive producer for the comedy series Dave, whose first season was the most-watched show in FX history.[13] Braun has been nominated for Grammy Awards in 2017 and 2022.

Early life

[edit]

Braun was born in New York City to Conservative Jewish parents, Ervin and Susan (née Schlussel) Braun.[14][15] Following the Holocaust,[16] Ervin's parents lived in Hungary until 1956, when they immigrated to the United States. Ervin grew up in Queens, and became a dentist and high-school basketball coach; Susan Schlussel Braun was an orthodontist.[17] After the couple married, they settled in Cos Cob, Connecticut.[18]

Braun has four siblings. He attended Greenwich High School, where he was elected class president.[15] Braun attended Emory University in Atlanta, where he played college basketball until his sophomore year.[18] He dropped out of college in his junior year.[19][20][21]

Career

[edit]

Braun began organizing parties while studying at Emory University.[15][22] In 2002, Braun was hired to plan after-parties in each of the five cities on the Anger Management Tour, which featured Ludacris and Eminem.[15] He subsequently met Jermaine Dupri, the founder of So So Def Records, who offered him a job as So So Def's executive director of marketing.[23] Events organized by Braun in this era included parties for the 2003 NBA All-Star Game and after-parties for Britney Spears' 2004 Onyx Hotel Tour.[15][24] Braun left So So Def[19] in 2005, and a few weeks later brokered a $12 million campaign deal between Ludacris and Pontiac. After the Pontiac deal, Braun was hired as an entertainment consultant for the Atlanta Hawks.[15]

In 2008, Braun scouted Bieber, then 13, after accidentally clicking on a YouTube video of Bieber singing. Braun urged Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette, to bring her son to Atlanta to record demos and meet Usher. He eventually convinced them to move permanently from Canada to the United States. Both Usher and Justin Timberlake expressed interest in signing Bieber, who ultimately signed with Island Def Jam in partnership with Raymond-Braun Media Group (RBMG).[25][26] Braun signed Ariana Grande to his management label in 2013.

Braun also managed Psy, Tori Kelly, Carly Rae Jepsen, Martin Garrix, Kanye West, Black Eyed Peas, David Guetta, Lil Dicky, and others.[27] He acquired half of the management companies of Jason Owens’ Sandbox Entertainment, Morris Higham, Brandon Creed, Troy Carter, and a partnership with Future and Drake.[17] In 2024, he retired from artist management to focus on the HYBE-America CEO role.[28]

Film and television

[edit]

Braun produced Never Say Never, a documentary about Bieber that MTV reported in 2011 as "one of the highest grossing music documentaries in domestic box-office history".[29] The film's budget was $13 million and earned over $100 million worldwide.[30] Braun was the executive producer of Burden, Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil, The Giver, The Boy from Medellin, and Project Runway among others.[17] Braun was also an executive producer for the CBS drama Scorpion, which aired from 2014 until 2018.[31] In 2018, Variety reported that FX had ordered a pilot of Dave, a comedy executive-produced by Braun that included actor Kevin Hart and rapper Lil Dicky.[32] In its first season, Dave was the most-watched show in FX history.[13][33] In July 2019, SB Projects signed a first-look deal with Amazon Studios that included television and film scripts.[34] Braun's SB Projects has also had film and television projects at Netflix, Hulu, and Fox.[34]

SB Projects

[edit]

In 2007, Braun established SB Projects, an entertainment and marketing company that encompassed ventures including Schoolboy Records, SB Management, and Sheba Publishing, a music publishing firm.[35][36] The group also included RBMG, a joint venture between Braun and Usher. School Boy Records was founded as a joint venture with Universal Music Publishing Group. In early 2013, Braun signed Ariana Grande.[37][38] As of August 2023, Braun no longer managed Grande, Lovato, and Idina Menzel.[39][40][41][42][43][44]

SB Projects has handled television campaigns, branding, music-licensing deals, and tour sponsorships, including Bieber's Calvin Klein endorsement for the 2016-2017 Purpose World Tour.[45] The company also brokered a partnership between Kanye West and sneaker brand Adidas.[46][47]

Ithaca Holdings, Hybe

[edit]

Ithaca Holdings, Braun's holding company that includes SB Projects, raised $120 million in venture capital in 2010.[2][48] Media reported that Ithaca, with $500 million under management as of 2018, financed GoodStory Entertainment, a collaboration between Braun and entertainment executive J. D. Roth, to acquire live event content, unscripted programming, and documentary films.[49][50]

In 2019, Ithaca acquired Big Machine Label Group in a purchase that included the masters to the first six albums of singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.[51] The purchase resulted in a public denouncement from Taylor Swift regarding the transfer of ownership of Big Machine album masters. As a minority shareholder in Ithaca, the label's founder Scott Borchetta remained with the company as its CEO.[52][53] In 2020, Ithaca Holdings sold the album masters to Shamrock Holdings for a reported $405 million, earning Ithaca $265 million.[54][55] As of 2023, Braun had netted nearly $400 million from the Big Machine deal.[55]

In April 2021, South Korean company Hybe announced that it would acquire Ithaca Holdings via the subsidiary Hybe America in a deal estimated to be around $1.05 billion.[4] As part of the sale, Braun became Hybe America's CEO and joined Hybe's board of directors. Long-time staffers were gifted $50 million in stock from Braun's personal allotment, with artists Bieber and Grande receiving $10 million each.[56][57][58] On May 31, 2022, Braun met with BTS and US President Joe Biden at the White House to discuss the recent rise in anti-Asian hate crimes.[59] Braun and Clive Davis presented Hybe's Chairman Bang Si-Hyuk with the Visionary award at Billboard's Power 100 Party in 2023.[60]

In 2023, Hybe acquired Quality Control Music for $300 million, with Kevin “Coach K” Lee and Pierre “P” Thomas maintaining control of the label under Braun.[61]

Braun was named the sole CEO of Hybe's American division in January 2023.[62] In 2023, Braun oversaw Hybe's cash and stock purchase of the Atlanta-based hip-hop level Quality Control Music for $300 million, with Kevin “Coach K” Lee and Pierre “P” Thomas maintaining control of the label under Braun.[62]
