Kallie Rock Signs Distribution and Co-Publishing Deal With Rod Wave’s Mainstay, Becoming Label’s First Female Pop Artist

Independent pop artist, songwriter, and storyteller Kallie Rock has officially signed a distribution and co-publishing deal with Mainstay, the label founded by multi-platinum artist Rod Wave. The signing marks a significant milestone for both Kallie and the label, as she becomes Mainstay’s first female pop artist and songwriter to join its roster.

While Mainstay has become known for its success in hip-hop and R&B, Kallie brings a distinct perspective to the label with emotionally cinematic pop music rooted in honest storytelling. Her songs unfold like scenes from a film, blending vivid imagery with deeply personal lyrics that explore heartbreak, healing, hope, and self-discovery. Rather than chasing trends, her writing centers on creating records that listeners can see, feel, and remember.

Drawing inspiration from the art of storytelling, Kallie has developed a sound that pairs intimate songwriting with modern pop production. Each record is designed to feel like opening a diary or watching the final scene of a coming-of-age film, giving listeners an emotional experience that feels deeply personal while remaining widely relatable.

The partnership also reflects Mainstay’s continued expansion into new creative spaces, welcoming a female pop voice whose artistry complements the label’s vision while introducing something entirely different to its growing catalog.

With new music on the way, Kallie Rock is preparing to introduce audiences to a fresh voice in pop—one built on authenticity, vulnerability, and songs designed to stay with listeners long after the final note.
