HarbourView Equity Partners has been making a huge splash in the music industry recently, with the announcement that St. Louis recording artist Nelly has sold half of his catalog to the asset management company. Now, HarbourView has gone one step further and agreed to buy select music and publishing assets from the multi-platinum-selling, Grammy and Golden Globe-nominated Pittsburgh native Wiz Khalifa.
Khalifa expressed his excitement about the agreement in a written statement, saying, “Sherrese and HarbourView truly understand the value of music and artistry. We are excited to partner with them as they continue to build a dynamic media company that is in line with the values and goals we all have here at Taylor Gang.”
The included assets for the deal include some of Khalifa’s biggest hits such as “Black & Yellow,” “See You Again,” and “The Thrill”, as well as songs featured on various albums, mixtapes, and projects.
Sherrese Clarke Soares, the founder and CEO of HarbourView, shared her enthusiasm about the deal, saying, “Wiz Khalifa has already made a profound impact on culture as a musician, executive, media visionary, and creative force. We celebrate his talent and creativity and are thrilled to welcome him and Taylor Gang to the HarbourView family today.”
HarbourView Equity Partners is a multi-strategy, global investment firm that focuses on investment opportunities in the entertainment and media space. Since its launch in 2021, the company has acquired works from a diverse pool of artists and currently possesses more than 20,000 songs.
Khalifa has been continuously working to build his business portfolio, which includes his own independent label, management company, and lifestyle brand, all under the umbrella of Taylor Gang.
Recently, Insider reported that Khalifa had suffered a “small rip in the cartilage” of his pelvis. He regularly posts workout videos of himself in the gym for his social media followers, although it’s unclear if the injury was related to his training.
Regardless, it’s clear that HarbourView Equity Partners and Wiz Khalifa are a match made in heaven and their partnership is sure to produce some incredible music.
