Music exec and former hardcore singer Anthony Martini is distancing himself from the Augmented Reality rapper FN Meka, with whom Capitol Records “severed ties” earlier this week after clips of the project using the N-word and propagating racial stereotypes went viral. As Billboard lays out, Martini is a former artist manager who has helped develop artists such as Lil Dicky and MadeinTYO and was CEO of Royalty Exchange from 2021 until earlier this year. He was also lead singer of the New Jersey rap-metal group E.Town Concrete, who’ve been “in retirement” since about 2015.
