Ramos Returns To Interscope In EVP Role
• Interscope Records announced the appointment of music industry veteran Xavier Ramos to the position of Executive Vice President of Pop & Rock Marketing. In his new role Ramos will oversee the creation and execution of marketing plans for the label’s extensive roster of pop and rock artists.
Ramos comes to Interscope from FaZe Clan, a digital native lifestyle and media platform rooted in gaming and youth culture. During his nearly four years at the company, Ramos was responsible for forging important partnerships with such organizations as the NFL, Manchester City and DC Comics, to name a few. In 2021, Ramos and his team were named to Ad Age‘s prestigious Marketers of the Year list, alongside the NFL, Target and Tesla. He was also instrumental in preparing the company to go public this year.
Prior to joining FaZe Clan, Ramos spent more than a decade at Warner Records, rising to Senior Vice President of Marketing. Ramos actually began his career at Interscope Records in 1995 as Director of Artist Development.
“Xavier has built a track record as a savvy marketer who is an expert at creating and serving a diverse group of communities,” said Steve Berman, Vice-Chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M. “His long history as a music marketer in addition to his remarkable tenure at FaZe Clan make him the perfect executive to lead our marketing team as we continue to create innovative ways to support the artists on our pop and rock roster.”
Ramos commented, “It’s an amazing feeling to return to the label where I started my career. The chance to work alongside John Janick, Steve Berman and the talented group of executives at Interscope is a dream come true. I look forward to working with the amazing artists on the Interscope roster.”
