Global Music Holding Company

Own the culture.
Not just the playlist.

Off the Record Partners is a holding of independent companies with a share in every link of the hip-hop economy — the stream, the ticket, the T-shirt and the licence. Whoever writes the next hit, we earn from it.

The legend

Hip-hop is thousands of companies. Each one earns on a single link.

A song makes money many times over its life, but every payment lands in a different pocket. We decided not to choose a pocket.

Off the Record Partners holds a share across all five — at the same time.
Our mission

Bring capital to the people who make music — and a share of music to the people who love it.

For decades, the economics of music belonged to labels, publishers and private funds. We are building the infrastructure that lets a broader circle of partners take part.

“Don’t just listen to the culture — own a piece of it.”Hip-hop has always been about owning your masters. We apply the same idea to the whole industry.
What we stand for

Four statements behind everything we do

We don’t guess hits

We own the field the hits are played on. Our result does not depend on which artist becomes a star.

We are neutral

We never sign artists and never release songs, so we compete with no one. Any label or artist can work with us.

We are many companies

A holding of independent businesses. Each keeps its own team and brand; together they cover the whole chain.

We open the door

Every partner and every company that joins becomes a new position in a shared portfolio.

Why it works

The model wins when the industry grows — not when one bet pays off.

We earn on the movement of the whole market. Strong links make up for weak ones.

See the revenue engines
01

The portfolio mirrors the market

Hundreds of companies and thousands of rights. One artist’s miss barely moves the total.

02

Every stage of a song pays

The play, the ticket, the merch and the licence each send a share back to the holding.

03

A toll on the whole market

As a market operator we take a commission on deals, like owning the exchange rather than a single stock.

04

Each partner adds value for the rest

Every new company widens the network, and a wider network brings better deals for everyone in it.

About Company

We don’t create the music. We own the ecosystem around it.

Off the Record Partners is a global music investment and holding company that acquires music rights, invests in music businesses, finances artists and labels, develops entertainment IP, and provides the financial and technological infrastructure connecting capital with the global music economy.

For decades, the music industry was owned by labels, publishers and private funds. We are building infrastructure that allows a broader class of investors to participate in the economics of music.

We know where the next music economy is forming

“When the whole orchestra plays, we earn on every note.”

We own a share of the stage, the notes, the ticket, the T-shirt and the right to the song.
