Amazon Music has a new hand on the brand tiller. Vivek Kataria brings a decade of consumer marketing across categories that demand both emotion and scale. Portfolios at packaged foods and wellness brands trained the muscle for distinctive identity and consistent recall. A recent entertainment role adds the platform specific nuance streaming demands.

Priority one will be sharpening memory structures so fans instantly know what Amazon Music stands for beyond a catalog. Expect clearer voice across social, creator partnerships that ride culture without shouting, and programs that reward time spent with playlists and podcasts. Growth will come from better top of mind and easier on ramps baked into the broader Amazon ecosystem.

Watch for gains in aided and unaided awareness, daily active users, completion rates on flagship shows, and brand lift studies around tentpole campaigns. In a crowded audio market, the brands that feel present and useful win the next open.
