Vevo, VidaPrimo to Make Independent Latin Urban Music Video Available to Mainstream Audiences

VidaPrimo, the premier Latin Music video network, has reached an agreement to distribute its vast library of music videos via Vevo, the world's largest dedicated music video service. The announcement was made by VidaPrimo Executive Vice President and General Manager Stephen Brooks. The agreement paves the way for video distribution onto Vevo's owned and operated platforms on desktop, mobile and streaming devices, gaming consoles and smart TVs. Distribution excludes YouTube, where VidaPrimo owns a top 5 Latin music network.

"We're pleased to have a partnership with a brand as strong and expansive as Vevo," says Brooks. "This agreement will enable our artist and label partners to reach more of their fans on new devices and platforms , giving them equal footing with the major labels.."

As part of the agreement, VidaPrimo will also curate key genre and promotional playlists to aid in the discovery of Latin Rhythm music. Most notably, the network will manage the new Reggaeton and Latin Trap playlists and work with Vevo to promote key new releases and upcoming artists from across the industry. "The promotional aspect of our partnership is critical," says Brooks. "We are advocates for the Latin Rhythm genres, and we want to make sure that amazing music makes its way into as many homes as possible, whether it comes from our network or another independent label. We will be working with other labels and networks to ensure the best of the genre is represented on Vevo."
