Yung Bleu Bets Big On Future Influencer Stars With $2.6M Moon Boy University
Yung Bleu has announced that he’s finally ready to unveil Moon Boy University to the world to offer a wide variety of services to all sorts of creators — including influencers.
In a press release shared with HipHopDX, it was revealed that the Mobile, Alabama native invested nearly $3 million of his own money into the project, which boasts a facility overing 24,000 square feet, and offers marketing, distribution, and management services for both artists and influencers.
“Many influencers have a great following, but sometimes we lack the resources to create a professional production,” he said in a statement. “Professional production costs. They have amazing ideas, [and] we come in on the content development side to where okay, you got the following. You got ideas, you just need to have the backing. We’ll shoot whatever you want to do. Let’s come up with cool ideas with our creative and marketing team, and actually produce.”
He continued: “You’re not giving in to what the major label would want. On the other side, another agency will connect you to stuff, but they’re not really touchable. Not only do we have branding, but we have a hub to where you can come down and meet with our team in person. All other creators. Our team is tangible and touchable, that’s what sets us apart.”
