Producer & Record Executive ThePlaymaker Is Putting Others On

KB Barrell, better known under his stage name ThePlaymaker, is helping artists blow up their own career with his timeless marketing tactics.

ThePlaymaker mainly markets his clients in the streets, sticking to old school methods of promo that still pay dividends to this day. When major record companies started to shy away from street promotions and more towards the internet for marketing around 2010 ThePlaymaker stayed consistent and committed to street team work until this present day which makes him one of the most sought after street team promoters in the music industry. The producer is responsible for selling over 24 million units worldwide between 1996 and 2017.

As 1/2 of Klu Management and marketing director of Blackout Ent., ThePlaymaker is busy putting in work to help artists from all over the country. The creative also has his one podcast called The Platform which speaks with some of the hottest upcoming talent from the Midwest.

It’s no secret that ThePlaymaker is making moves in the underground space and with high hopes, the super producer and marketing guru hopes to break out even more talent from around his area.
