Author Information

Brendon Waters, professionally known as, Marley Waters, is a genre-defying music producer, artist, and author whose career epitomizes the modern blueprint for independent success in the entertainment industry. From coproducing the Billboard #1, RIAA platinum-certified hit ""2 On"" by Tinashe to penning his debut book Bait to Plate: How to Navigate, Attract, and Shapeshift to Success in the Modern Music Industry, Waters has built a legacy fueled by strategy, self-belief, and unwavering innovation. Born in Boston and forged in the hustle of Atlanta's music scene, Waters left college with just one year remaining-not out of defeat, but out of conviction. With a vision bigger than a classroom and a work ethic sharpened by reallife challenges, he transformed personal adversity into creative power. From a modest home studio in Los Angeles, he steadily carved a path to major success-earning a SESAC Pop Award, chart-topping credits, and licensing placements on cultural mainstays like Starz's Power, Showtime's The Chi, andNetflix's EndoftheRoad. What separates Waters is not just his hit records-but the way he thinks. His work is deeply intentional, strategically built, and culturally rooted. Now based in Johannesburg, South Africa, he draws from local influence to expand his sonic universe, blending African rhythms with global pop sensibility, and reshaping what it means to be an international artist in the digital age. In 2025, Waters added ""author"" to his resume, publishing BaittoPlate-a practical, motivational, and experiential guide for creatives navigating the modern music business. More than a book, it is an industry toolkit powered by 15+ years of firsthand wins, losses, legal lessons, and breakthroughs. His mission? To break cycles of gatekeeping, democratize knowledge, and empower the next generation of artists and entrepreneurs to create from a place of clarity, ownership, and purpose. Whether he's building catalogs, licensing soundtracks, speaking to creators, or investing in the next frontier of Web3 music platforms, Marley Waters is a creative force who operates beyond trends. He's not chasing virality-he's architecting longevity.
