Nelly Furtado has reportedly become the latest notable name to trade in the publishing rights for their catalog for a mammoth payout.
Full story below…
Per Sky News, the singer-songwriter – whose hits include ‘Promiscuous,’ ‘Maneater,’ ‘Say It Right,’ and ‘I’m Like a Bird,’ is on the cusp of signing a seismic deal with Hipgnosis Song Management.
The Blackstone-backed firm has amassed a diverse portfolio of song and producer catalogs – ranging from Shakira to the Red Hot Chilli Peppers to Leonard Cohen. Now, according to the report, Canadian star Furtado is next up.
No financial information has been officially released. However, analysts posit that the price tag could be in the ballpark of $50 million.
It’s been five years since Furtado’s last album, indie offering ‘The Ride,’ and she largely maintains a quiet profile these days.
Yet, it’s little surprise that her catalog would come with a hefty price tag.
The singer’s commercial breakthrough album ‘Loose’ has sold a whopping 12 million copies since its 2006 release and birthed many a multi-Platinum smash that still resonates with the modern music mass. All of which she savvily has writing credits on.
So, while we’d readily welcome new material from the star, we simultaneously commend this flex.
Girl. The album with promiscuous alone is worth 50 mil. Step up the price. Know your worth nelly.
I miss her, she was always different in the Pop Landscape until the Loose album. That was more… you know Urban Pop radio friendly.
I don’t understand why The Spirit Indestructible didn’t perform well. I love that album.
💯 waiting for the night, bucket list, miracle, the end of world, parking lot are bops💅🏾
Who knew it was worth that much 🤷🏽♂️
You’re value isn’t even worthy of the Dollar Tree Clearance isle. Lmao hush 🤫
@Blow you are the tackiest 𝓱𝓸𝓮 on this blog, you are in no position to be trying to put anyone down.
p.s I know who you are CLOWN!
I’m not your daddy you bastàrd child 😂
You are nobody’s daddy with your micro “D”. No wonder you’re a trañny.
Why not? Get that big money even she ain’t that hot anymore 💅🏾
Her music is worth much more she must be strapped for cash or something, only thing I can think of. You sell them rights the royalties go along with it.
These artists are BROKE. Everyone’s selling their rights. Unfortunately their children and childrens children will feel the effects of this.
She should sell her catalog for much more money. I would say minimum 100 million. Loose was a very successful album
why yall keep saying her music is worth more? if taylors was valued at $350m…$50m seems fair as she has had around a 1/7th of the success
B****… Who’s Taylor???
