Burna Boy signing the publishing deal

Burna Boy, the Nigerian Afro-fusion singer and songwriter, has signed a publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing, United States of America (U.S.A).

 

The music act is currently on tour in America, tagged,  ‘Life on the Outside’.

 

This deal came at a crucial point in Burna Boy’s career, with his last studio album, “Outside”, still getting great reviews and a recent spike in sales due to the fan favourite single, “YE”.

 

Born Damini Ogulu in Porthacourt, Burna Boy is a Nigerian based Afro-fusion singer, songwriter and performing artiste signed to his record label, Spaceship Entertainment.

 

The artiste signed a music publishing deal, which will give him the privilege to manage his songs and ensure he receives all the royalties from the back end as he is entitled to. This deal will also seek and issue licenses for Burna Boy’s work. This is, of course, in addition to administrative duties, tracking, exploitation of copyrights, and collection of monies generated from the exploitation of those copyrights.

The deal is a great career boost, not just for Burna Boy, but also his fans who will now be able to properly support the artiste’s music, as well as for the entertainment industry.
