Tessie Lammle has also joined the company as a Los Angeles-based Director and agent focused on hip-hop and R&B artists.
She previously spent nearly a decade at UTA, where she reportedly represented artists like Lil Wayne, Tierra Whack and Latto.
James Rubin, EVP & Managing Executive at Wasserman Music, said: “Tessie is as talented and hardworking as they come, and her genuine passion for music and developing unique strategies to help artists meet and exceed their goals shines through in everything she does.”
“We’re excited to have her join the team to help fuel the surging growth of our Hip-Hop and R&B division, but her skills and interests go well beyond so we can’t wait to watch her keep growing and evolving along with the company.”
These appointments follow the news of three music industry executives joining Wasserman’s leadership team back in January 2025 from rival firm William Morris Endeavor (WME).
Kevin Shivers, James Rubin and Cristina Baxter joined from WME’s Hip-Hop/R&B and Pop and Rock teams, where they handled several major Hip-Hop/R&B artists, including Tyler, The Creator, Snoop Dogg, Travis Scott, Wiz Khalifa and André 3000, amongst others.Music Business Worldwide
