Kobalt has partnered with independent label K Music and its publishing arm on global administration for future works and select tracks in the catalogue.
“The strategic partnership with Kobalt provides K Music Publishing with the global reach and resources to further elevate its artists, expand their presence worldwide, and drive continued success in the evolving music industry,” said a statement.
“Freddy, Leo, and their team have built in K Music a modern music company infused with a passionate entrepreneurial spirit embodied by the music of its artists,” said Nestor Casonu, president of Latin America for Kobalt. “We are thrilled to welcome K Music Publishing into the Kobalt global family.”
K Music, founded in 2019 by CEOs Alfredo Becerra and Leonardo Soto, and songwriter/producer Carlos Santos, is home to a new wave of global Música Mexicana hitmakers. The roster includes artists such as Luis R Conriquez, Joel De La P, Tony Aguirre, and acts including Dinamicos Jrs, Novillos De La Sierra and Said Norzagaray.
“We are excited to join the Kobalt Family,” said Alfredo Becerra, CEO of K Music. “This partnership is a significant milestone for K Music and K Music Publishing. We look forward to the incredible possibilities that lie ahead. This deal is not just about securing the intellectual property of our songwriters but about offering new pathways to the talented creators we represent, helping them break through new markets, and achieving even greater success.”
“Kobalt partners with companies that are reshaping the future of music,” said Tere Romo, Kobalt’s senior creative director for Latin America. “K Music has consistently demonstrated its ability to discover and develop groundbreaking talent in the Música Mexicana community. This partnership marks an exciting new phase for both of our companies and we’re thrilled to support K Music Publishing as they continue to push the boundaries of the genre and bring their incredible artists to a global audience.”
