Pop singer Britney Spears has sold the rights to her full music catalogue to independent publisher Primary Wave for about $200 million, according to media reports. The deal was completed on 30 December, though exact terms were not made public. Spears is known for major hits like “…Baby One More Time,” “Oops!... I Did It Again,” “Toxic,” and “Gimme More.” Primary Wave did not comment on the purchase, and Spears’ representatives also declined to respond. In 2024, Spears said she would “never return to the music industry.” Her last release was a 2022 duet with Elton John. Many top artists have recently sold their catalogues. (PC: BBC)
