Dua Lipa Buys Back Rights to Publishing Catalog

Dua Lipa has bought the rights to her publishing catalog from TAP Music Publishing, the company announced. The sale arrives over a year after the singer, who was also previously a part of TAP’s artist management branch, parted ways with the company. Lipa has since been managed by her father, Dukagjin Lipa.

 

TAP Music Publishing shared in a statement: “We wish Dua all the best for the future.” Anna Neville, TAP Music’s co-president, added: “This is an exciting time for our publishing company - we are expanding our services and teams globally and continue to add talented writers and artists to our already stellar roster.”

I wonder why TaP agreed to it, as her catalogue will be worth even more in the future. I wouldn't be surprised if she threatened to bad-mouth them Taylor-style, and destroy their public reputation, like Taylor has done to Big Machine and Scooter Braun. :thinking:
