Molly Santana Signs to Epic Records Through Her Black Punk Music Imprint

A breakout feature on a Drake and Future song has turned into a label deal. Epic Records announced Thursday (Nov. 5) that it has signed Molly Santana, partnering with the 22-year-old rapper’s own imprint, Black Punk Music, per Billboard and The FADER.

The breakthrough was “Ran to Atlanta,” the Drake and Future reunion track that features Santana. Billboard says it debuted at No. 2 on the Hot 100 and pushed her profile in mainstream rap. At Epic she joins a roster that Billboard says includes Future, Travis Scott and 21 Savage, and she arrives with a project called Black Punk on the way.

Epic chairman and CEO Ezekiel Lewis called her a talent with a point of view that’s hers alone.

Black Punk is a bold statement from an artist who knows exactly who she is, and we’re excited to welcome her to the Epic Records family.

Santana told Billboard exclusively that this marks a new chapter.

Black Punk Music marks a new chapter in my career, one devoted to pushing the boundaries of creativity in music and beyond.

Billboard describes her as known for dizzying flows and rage-coded theatrics. Her last project, 2025’s Molly & Her Week of Wonders, featured the standouts “Not Regular” and “BRB,” per Billboard, and The FADER counted it among its top albums of 2025. The FADER says her recent singles hint at a harder-edged sound on the follow-up. Those include “Live Your Life,” “Can’t Touch This” and “Walk” with Chy Cartier. The FADER adds that it’s unclear whether any of them will land on the new album. Watch “Live Your Life” below.

The first release under the new deal is “A Girl Is a Gun,” due Friday (Nov. 6). Neither Billboard nor The FADER gives a release date for the album.
