Metro Boomin‘s long string of hits is proving to be a cash cow … the hip hop superproducer just sold off a portion of his catalog publishing rights for a whopping $70 million!!!
Shamrock Capital reportedly closed the deal Tuesday and came up on several high-profile recordings such as Migos’ “Bad and Boujee,” Post Malone and Quavo‘s “Congratulations” and “Heartless” by The Weeknd — all of which went #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Shamrock also recently acquired a chunk of Dr. Dre‘s catalog for $200 million, and famously bought the rights to Taylor Swift‘s first 6 albums back in 2020 — so, the investment firm appears to be the go-to spot for blockbuster music to get a second shelf life.
In spite of his already historic career, Metro has been leveling up for months … following the release of his chart-topping last album “HEROES & VILLAINS.”
