Social Media/Brand Strategist Rap Artist

Remote
Internship
Student (College)

Social Media Brand Strategist 

Location: REMOTE New York, NY (Hybrid – NYC strongly preferred)
Type: Internship → Strong potential to grow into a paid, long-term role
Artist: CXBIS (IG: @cxbis1 • TikTok: CXBIS • Apple Music: CXBIS • YouTube: CXBIS)

About the Artist

CXBIS is one of NYC’s most compelling rising artists — a genre-blending vocalist, producer, and writer with a raw, distinct sound that cuts through the noise. Influenced by YE, Trippie Redd, Tyler The Creator, and Ian Dior, he brings a mix of vulnerability, melody, and originality.

Self-taught since age 6 (piano, production, songwriting), he writes, records, and masters his own music — building a catalog that is emotionally charged, sonically different, and built for the next wave of hip-hop and alt-rap.

CXBIS is on the brink of breaking through. The right person will grow with him and eventually become a trusted part of the core team behind a New York artist on the rise.

The Role

We’re looking for a high-caliber, culture-fluent Brand Social Media Stratragist — someone who understands rising artists, aesthetics, storytelling, internet culture, and the digital platforms where music careers are built.

This is NOT a basic “post content” internship.

This is for someone who:

  • Lives and breathes music

  • Understands TikTok/IG culture

  • Has an eye for visuals

  • Can help build a brand

  • Wants to be part of something big from the ground level

Your work will directly impact how the world discovers CXBIS.

Responsibilities

Creative Collaboration

  • Develop the visual identity, aesthetics, themes, and brand direction

  • Craft concepts, storylines, rollouts, colors, and moods

  • Guide the creative for singles, snippets, behind-the-scenes, and videos

Content Creation & Growth

  • Plan, shoot, and edit TikToks, reels, and short-form videos

  • Capture studio sessions, lifestyle clips, personality moments

  • Build a consistent posting strategy

  • Use trending formats that feel natural to the artist

Fan Engagement & Social Media

  • Manage IG, TikTok, YouTube Shorts

  • Engage with fans and grow the community

  • Spark conversations and build a loyal base

Promotion, PR & Rollouts

  • Pitch to playlists, blogs, influencers, and culture pages

  • Assist with outreach and communication

  • Support structured timelines for new music drops

Brand Development

  • Build the world around CXBIS

  • Keep consistency in sound, story, and visuals

  • Collaborate on merch, cover art, and future creative concepts

Ideal Candidate

Required

  • Passion for hip-hop, alt-rap, and music culture

  • Strong knowledge of TikTok/IG trends and music virality

  • Video editing skills (CapCut, Adobe, etc.)

  • Creative eye and strong sense of storytelling

  • Reliable, consistent, and self-driven

Preferred

  • NYC-based (for content days, shoots, studio sessions)

  • Experience growing artists, brands, or creative accounts

  • Graphic design or Canva skills

  • Understanding of artist rollouts or PR

Who Thrives Here

Someone who:

  • Gets the art

  • Gets the vision

  • Wants to build with an artist long-term

  • Has ambition, taste, and drive

Why This Is a Career-Changing Opportunity

  • Be part of a rising artist’s core team

  • Your ideas will directly shape his career

  • Letters of recommendation + real industry exposure

  • Build a portfolio with real artist content

  • Strong potential to grow into a paid, long-term role such as:

    • Creative Director

    • Social Media Manager

    • Tour Content Lead

    • Artist Brand Manager

This is for someone who wants to grow with the artist — not just complete tasks.

Compensation

  • Internship: unpaid initially

  • Strong potential for paid roles as the brand and team grow

  • Access to studio sessions, shoots, performance days, and industry events
