Vevo DSCVR Artists To Watch 2023: Carol Biazin, Wesley Joseph, Ptazeta, Ice Spice – Music Business Worldwide

The final four picks from this year’s VEVO DSCVR Artists To Watch list…

carol biazin

David McTiernan, Head of Artist/Label Relations & Marketing: “Carol Biazin first caught our attention with her work as a songwriter, but the more we’ve heard from her, the more talents she reveals. She shows incredible range in her vocals, melodies and accompanying visuals, and her lyrics show the tremendous depth and many sides to her artistry. She is undeniably one of the most exciting names currently emerging from the Brazilian music scene, and we are beyond excited she’s one of this year’s Artists To Watch.” 

Carol Biazin: “I’m so happy! This is my first international project and my first time outside Brazil too. We’re going to record with London-based musicians, so I’m curious to hear how the songs will turn out. I want them to bring their identities, it’s going to be a vibrant musical exchange. I chose two unreleased songs, which I’ve never performed live before, it will be a surprise for everyone.”

Wesley joseph

Alex Morley, Senior Manager, Music & Talent: “Wesley Joseph is one of the most exciting artists in the UK right now. An outstanding producer, songwriter, singer, rapper and director who’s creating his own cinematic, genre-bending sound.  The lyrics are captivating, the beats are detailed and his videos are as well considered as his music. Wesley’s sound is evolving with every release, he’s got an amazing team behind him and this is only the beginning! We can’t wait to share his first live performance sessions with the world.” 

Wesley Joseph: “Big love to VEVO for providing a platform and supporting my art from day one. It’s an honor to be one of your Artists To Watch in keeping with so many great musicians over the years. Thank you.”

ptazeta

Chiara Hellquist, Manager, Talent & Label Relations, Spain: “We couldn’t be more excited to have Ptazeta in our 2023’s DSCVR Artists To Watch selection. Having been part of the Spanish Newcomers and Pride campaigns this year, Ptazeta’s participation in the program is the natural next step in our commitment and reaffirmation to this rising star. We can’t wait to see what she has to offer in 2023.” 

Ptazeta: “I am so excited to be part of VEVO’s Artists To Watch 2023. I am very grateful for this amazing opportunity that VEVO has given me. Above all, I thank my fans for continuing to support me and my music. Soon you will be able to see two very special performances we shot at VEVO’s London studio.”

ice spice

Jordan Glickson, Vice President, Music & Talent: “It’s been difficult to miss Ice Spice’s name on blogs and social media the last few months, but her inclusion on this list is a direct result of the power of her music. Everyone knows her viral hit [Munch (Feelin’ U)], but that’s just the beginning. Over the next few months, as she releases more music, we expect the whole world to know not just her name, but her songs as well.” 

Ice Spice: “Being chosen as one of VEVO’s 2023 DSCVR Artists to Watch honestly means everything to me. I feel like my career is just getting started, so to be recognized by something as big as VEVO is crazy. I’m so thankful for the platform to share my music with a new audience.”Music Business Worldwide
