Warner Chappell renews global deal with Spanish singer-songwriter Quevedo

Warner Chappell Music has renewed its worldwide publishing agreement with Spanish singer-songwriter Quevedo.

The renewal follows the arrival of Quevedo’s latest studio album, El Baifo. 

“With this renewed partnership, Quevedo is poised for his most ambitious chapter yet,” said a statement. 

Released last Friday, singles from the project have already achieved a clean sweep of the Spotify Spain Top 10. The track La Graciosa (featuring Latin star Elvis Crespo) debuted at No.1, while every song from the album entered the local Spotify Top 50.

Lead single Ni Borracho debuted at No.1 on the Spanish official charts. Subsequently released tracks, including Scandic, have solidified Quevedo’s footprint across Southern Europe and Latin America, securing multiple Top 10 positions.

El Baifo features a curated list of urban rising stars, including WCM Spain’s La Pantera and Lucho RK, alongside Juseph, Nueva Linea and Tonny Tun Tun.

The sonic architecture of the album was crafted by a team of WCM-signed producers, including Blvck Reyes, Garabatto, Gio and Izak BDP. 

The global roll-out was further bolstered by ADA, Warner Music Group’s independent distribution and label services arm, which provided the worldwide infrastructure for the release.

In 2022, Quevedo became the first ever Spanish artist to reach the summit on Spotify’s Global Chart with the Diamond-certified Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 52. His debut LP, Donde Quiero Estar, broke domestic records to become the most-streamed album in Spain’s history within its first 24 hours.

He is scheduled to embark on an extensive international tour, including major arenas across Europe and the Americas.
