Britney Spears Sells Music Catalog and Rights to Primary Wave
Britney Spears has finalized a significant deal by selling her music catalog and various rights to Primary Wave, as confirmed by multiple sources. The transaction details remain unclear due to strict non-disclosure agreements. However, TMZ estimates the deal to be worth in the low nine figures.
Details of the Deal
While exact figures are not disclosed in the legal documentation, it’s possible that Spears’ artist royalties and publishing rights were part of the agreement. Reports indicate she has sold her ownership share of her catalog to Primary Wave.
Catalog Highlights
- Spears has songwriting credits on nearly 40 songs.
- Notable tracks include the ballad “Everytime” and fan favorites such as “Me Against the Music” and “S&M.”
It’s unlikely that Spears’ name, image, and likeness rights were included in the sale unless the financial terms were significantly higher than speculated.
Recent Career Moves
Since releasing her last album “Glory” in 2016, Spears has not performed live, with her last concert occurring in October 2018. This performance concluded her “Piece of Me” tour at the Formula One Grand Prix in Austin, Texas.
She was poised to return to Las Vegas in 2019 with a new residency titled “Domination,” following the success of her first residency. However, she later postponed these plans, stepping back from public performances.
Conservatorship and Public Image
Britney was released from a 13-year conservatorship in 2021. Since then, she has maintained a low profile, with sporadic social media posts showcasing her dance routines at home.
Future Performance Plans
Recently, Spears addressed fans’ expectations regarding a U.S. concert tour. In a social media post, she expressed, “I will never perform in the U.S. again because of extremely sensitive reasons.” However, she hinted at the possibility of performances in the UK and Australia.
In her message, she mentioned a nostalgic photo alongside a white Yamaha piano, indicating that she plans to send it to her son. She also discussed using dance as a form of healing.
