Megan Thee Stallion is making waves in the music industry as she secures a groundbreaking distribution deal with a major label, all while preserving her independence.
As reported by Billboard on December 12th, the Houston-based sensation is teaming up with Warner Music Group to expand the reach of her music. However, this is no ordinary record deal. In this distinctive arrangement, Megan maintains full ownership of her music catalog while tapping into the vast infrastructure provided by WMG.
In addition to the significant boost from WMG’s global reach, Megan’s support team will include individuals from 300 Entertainment, with whom she previously collaborated under her previous deal.
In late October, the talented 28-year-old artist and her former label finally reached a confidential agreement, putting an end to their legal disputes. Lawyers representing 1501 Certified Entertainment announced the mutually agreed settlement, marking Megan’s official release from a deal she had once described as “unconscionable.”
“Both Megan and 1501 are delighted to put this chapter behind them and eagerly embrace the next phase of their respective careers,” the label imprint conveyed in a statement, extending their best wishes for her future endeavors. However, the specific terms of the settlement remain undisclosed.
