Beyonce, JT, Coldplay Contracts To End After One More Album
Quote:
Swift is one of four superstars—along with RCA’s Justin Timberlake, Columbia’s Beyoncé and Parlophone’s Coldplay—who are just one album from the ends of their deals, while Fall Out Boy owes Island one more after the album hitting early next year, which will contain the band’s smash single "Centuries." But whether these acts re-up or take their talents elsewhere—and there will be no shortage of bidders for their services as recording artists—their next deals are likely to be less gigantic than their present ones, simply because elephant-bucks deals can no longer be justified economically. While the $15-20m range wasn’t uncommon in the past for major acts, the ceiling now seems to be $10m tops—except for Adele
I only left out Taylor because hers was already mentioned and posted.
Interesting , is it the re-release for Beyonce? I know Coldplay are releasing next year , obviously in a hurry to get out from their contract. I wonder how the bidding will go after this, who do you think will get the most ?
This means we will get JT, Beyonce, Taylor, Coldplay Greatest Hits albums though They have potential to be big sellers, since all those acts are kind of larger than life and some of the few iconic/mega famous acts of the last 15 years, and could attract casual buyers. Perfect Christmas presents.
