Music Professional
Def Jam Records – Universal Music Group. Labels still have that old-school mentality and a way of being like, “Hey, you’re gonna sign today. But let’s put Lawyers, let’s put Managers, Executives, CEOs on the phone. Let’s figure this deal out.” I believe that still happens because it’s so competitive now. Anthony Mundle is an ambitious and avid music listener, which compelled him to find a career in music and entertainment. Born in NYC, he previously worked for the EVP of Universal Music Group in the corporate executive office for two years. He encapsulates a hard-working NYC creative, and after realizing he was ready to take on a creative role, he joined Def Jam Recordings in the A&R department, which had been a dream of his since he was a child. After a year at Def Jam, he’s coordinated projects for emerging artists such as Beau Young Prince, Steven Moses, Bernard Jabs, and others, as well as projects for premiere artist such as 2Chainz, YG, Dave East and more.

It’s important to note that different A&R professionals and record labels may prioritize these qualities differently based on their specific goals and target markets.
