Scooter Braun<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>announced that he was retiring from being a music manager in a statement on Monday, June 17. The music industry staple, 43, reflected on having over two decades worth of experience in the industry, and he announced the next steps for his career. He revealed that he was going to join the board of Hybe and be the CEO of Hybe America. \u201cAfter 23 years this chapter as a music manager has come to an end,\u201d he wrote in the statement.<\/p>\nAt the start of the post, Scooter looked back on how far he\u2019s come since he started his career as an artist manager. \u201c23 years ago a 19 year old kid started managing an artist named Cato in Atlanta, GA and my journey began. Along the way I have had so many experiences I could never have dreamt of,\u201d he said. \u201cSo for my entire adult life I played the role of an artist manager on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And for 20 years I loved it. It\u2019s all I had known. But as my children got older, and my personal Iife took some hits, I came to the realization that my kids were 3 superstars I wasn\u2019t willing to lose. The sacrifices I was once willing to make I could no longer justify.\u201d<\/p>\n
Scooter said that in his new role, he knew what would have to take precedent in his life. He explained that his rankings were \u201ca father first, a CEO second, and a manager no more.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n<\/blockquote>\nAs Scooter continued, he spoke about the many artists that he\u2019s helped grow over the years, especially highlighting how huge\u00a0Ariana Grande\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Justin Bieber\u00a0<\/strong>have become. The news of Scooter\u2019s retirement and transition into a new role comes nearly a year after many of his clients left his roster<\/a>. While people thought there may be some drama involved in the loss of clients, it now seems that he\u2019s been working towards this transition for some time. Shortly after the artists left, Scooter shared a quote about his \u201cnew life\u201d<\/a> on social media.<\/p>\nAt the end of his announcement, Scooter revealed that he was hopeful for what his life would bring next. \u201cI never saw how this chapter would end, hell, I never even saw it happening. But it did. And I will cherish every moment of it. I made my plan\u2026 but it turns out I like God\u2019s plan better. Cheers!\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
