“Over the years, I’ve been privileged to work with some of the most important artists in Latin music, enjoying tremendous success in diverse genres from reggaetón to música mexicana. Everything I’ve learned has now come together at Globalatino,” Lopez said in a statement. “Most recently working alongside entertainment visionary, Haim Saban, added to my lifelong commitment to artist development. At Globalatino we’re 100% dedicated to superserving our artists.”

The announcement comes three months after Virgin Music Group acquired Saban Music Latin’s catalog. For five years, Lopez served as the company’s CEO since Saban Music Group launched in 2019 by entertainment mogul Haim Saban, and later oversaw the creation of Saban Music Latin in 2022.

Prior to joining Saban, Lopez was the longtime GM and executive vp of Universal Music Latin, where he launched Latin urban label Machete Music, home to artists like Wisin & Yandel and Don Omar, and also ran Universal Music Latin Entertainment’s regional Mexican labels, Fonovisa and Disa. After leaving Universal in 2017, he launched indie music company Talento Uno, which was acquired by Saban.

About Globalatino, Lopez added, “We have the executive team, the expertise, the relationships, and the funding to help artists accomplish their dreams.”
