This guy is going to be the next big thing. 2014 was huge for him with productions for Jason Derulo, Fifth Harmony, Jessie J, and more. He brought the sax back. I already know he's working with twenty|one|pilots on their new album, and my guess is that 2015 will be even bigger for him (hopefully Wallpaper. can get some mainstream attention too).

He has 3 new productions that were released within the past few weeks.
Two songs with twenty one pilots were released, "Fairly Local" and "Tear In My Heart". He produced most, if not all, of their upcoming album, Blurryface. I remember reading about Tyler (frontman of twenty one pilots) saying that they were struggling to find a producer that saw the same vision as them, and Ricky was the one that was chosen. So he might have produced the whole album.
He also produced a song on Jason Derulo's upcoming album, "Get Ugly". He probably produced a few more also.

Ricky Reed has started his own record label called Nice Life, which is an imprint under Atlantic Records. Currently, the only artists under it are Iman Royal, Lizzo, and Lazyboy Empire, but it should grow. He did an interview with Billboard about the label and how it came about: www.billboard.com/articles/news/6898377/ricky-reed-nice-life-records-launch-exclusiveRecently, he executive produced Meghan Trainor's upcoming album Thank You and produced most of Bomba Estéreo's Amanecer album. He has also been working on his new record with Wallpaper., which will hopefully be out this year. I'm not sure if he is still with Epic (he's listed on their site), but it wouldn't surprise if he moves the band to Atlantic and uses Nice Life as his imprint.
