Mike Posner has now sold over 1 million downloads (in the U.S.) of his single “Cooler Than Me.” He was first featured on Crazed Hits in April 2009, prior to inking a record and publishing deal.

Kudos to Posner’s management Elitaste and legal Howard Hertz, as well as Peter Edge (J Records) and Katie Welle (Sony/ATV), who signed Posner to a record and pub deal.
