Grammy-Winning Producer Tainy and Award-Winning Music Executive Lex Borrero Join Esports Conglomerat
NEW YORK (CelebrityAccess) – ReKTGlobal has today (May 30) announced the addition of legendary Latin music producer Tainy and music executive Lex Borrero as investors.
Fresh off the esports entity’s Series A announcement that raised $10.8 million in funding, Tainy and Borrero will join world-renowned EDM sensation Steve Aoki and Billboard Award-winning Imagine Dragons as co-owners of ReKTGlobal, the parent company of professional global esports organization Rogue.
As co-owners, Tainy and Borrero will support the growth of ReKTGlobal and Rogue in Latin America through strategic partnerships. They will also create and deliver creative streaming content alongside Rogue players and strengthen awareness around the team’s Junior Rogue program for amateur gamers and enthusiasts.
“We’re excited to add Tainy, the legendary Latin music producer, as well as his manager and award-winning executive, Lex Borrero, as investors in the ReKTGlobal family,” said Amish Shah, founder of ReKTGlobal and co-owner of Team Rogue. “With Tainy and Lex’s support, we look forward to continuous growth and elevation of Rogue Nation’s global footprint in Latin America and beyond.”
Tainy, who is known for his work on Cardi B, Bad Bunny and J Balvin’s hit track “I like it,” as well as for producing much of J Balvin’s 2018 smash album, Vibras, said: “As a passionate gamer and supporter of Rogue, I’m excited to join ReKTGlobal as an investor. When I’m not in the studio, I’m gaming –playing everything from League of Legends, NBA 2K and Final Fantasy to Gears of War, whose soundtrack I’m currently working on, in addition to my own album.”
Lex Borrero, who recently won ASCAP’s Song of the Year Award as the publisher of Zedd’s “The Middle,” added: “I’ve been watching what ReKTGlobal has been doing in the space since 2017, and I love their vision of merging music and gaming. When the opportunity came up, it was a no brainer.”
