Brand New Company announces their new intellectual property (IP), a virtual talent agency dubbed HEYU. Its first generation, RE:NEGADE, a 3-piece music group- Jacki3, Gemi9, and Ru VII, is set to debut later this month.
Virtual YouTubers or vtubers, have been gaining a lot of momentum recently. Slowly crossing into a more mainstream audience during the pandemic, vtubers and vtubing were seen as a form of alternative entertainment for people who have been locked in their homes. For aspiring streamers, vtubing has become a great alternative for those who don’t want to reveal their face for many reasons.
HEYU joins the ranks of agencies like VOLs and brands like HyperX in fielding their own roster of talents for the internet to enjoy. The vtubers from this debut generation seem to take the music-first route versus the more popular way of showcasing gaming talent.
HEYU is an acronym of sorts: Heaven Enforced Youth. It also sounds like “Hey, you!” as a way to call someone’s attention. It also means Hope for Every Young Underdog, a bright message of positivity and empowerment. While it can mean many things, one thing is for sure: the agency is here to bring entertainment, fun, and really good music to everyone.
HEYU Gen One – RE:NEGADE
Your friendly neighborhood punks, RE:NEGADE, are here to kick ass and share their pursuit of dreams and collection of heartbreaks through the thing they love the most: Music. The trio will debut on August 31, 2023.
