Drop SZN is led by Trey Alston — a veteran music journalist and senior copywriter who
understands music drops and the culture like the back of his hands. He’s worked with record
labels (RCA, Universal, Sony), written for major publications (Complex, MTV News, BET, Revolt
TV, Vibe Magazine) and created culture-defining creative campaigns for the biggest brands
(Sprite, Meta, the NBA G League, and Foot Locker). His work has won awards because of its
impact, so he’s created this agency to bring that highly sought after creative skill to the music
industry.
