Today, Rémy Martin launches Season 5 of their Producers Series, a music platform designed to discover and celebrate emerging music producers. After four successful seasons, Rémy Martin continues to support the collaborative process of music-making by partnering with two of music’s biggest names; 3-time Grammy Nominated hip-hop artist Big Sean and chart-topping producer Mustard, to search for the next big producer.
The winner of the Rémy Martin Producers Series will get a co-sign from Big Sean and Mustard to produce a song and lyric music video. Rémy Martin has tapped Live Nation, the world’s largest live entertainment company, to amplify Season 5 of the Producers Series: The Co-Sign, by creating exclusive digital content, producing live events to showcase the aspiring talent, developing new creative assets and more.

“I’m glad I partnered with Rémy on this. It’s perfect timing for me because I’m literally in the studio giving 100% of my attention to making music right now, and it’s a great opportunity to link with aspiring producers and people who might have the next sound, or be the next big producer,” said Hip-Hop Artist Big Sean. “It’s exciting to think a star can be discovered through this competition and that’s what I’m most excited for, is to find the next new talent and work with them!”
