No, I’m not talking about their monthly OnlyFans income. I’m talking about what they got paid to sell their music catalogs to corporate interests.
And those numbers may be an all time high, but the list doesn’t end there. RZA, Bruno Mars, Nelly, Taylor Swift, Scooter Braun, 50 Cent, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Calvin Harris and Shakira, all of these artists have either sold their entire music catalogs or seen some of their music get sold to corporate firms for often eye watering amounts of money up front.
