T-Pain is making big moves to protect his musical legacy. The Grammy-winning artist has finalized a major deal with HarbourView Equity Partners, selling his publishing catalog and select masters rights. This strategic decision allows his music to reach new heights while he focuses on his growing empire.
In a statement to Variety, T-Pain expressed his excitement about the partnership. “I’m excited for this next chapter and to partner with HarbourView Equity as they help preserve the legacy of my music,” he said. “This catalog represents years of hard work, creativity, and unforgettable moments, and I’m grateful to see it continue to reach new heights. I don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.”
HarbourView’s Founder and CEO, Sherrese Clarke, praised T-Pain’s impact on the industry. “We are excited to welcome T-Pain, a true trailblazer in the music industry, to the HarbourView family,” she said. “His visionary artistry and innovative spirit have left an indelible mark on modern music, and we can’t wait to collaborate and amplify his incredible legacy even further.”
The acquisition adds to HarbourView’s growing portfolio, which includes music assets from Nelly, Wiz Khalifa, Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie, and more.
Beyond his catalog of music, T-Pain has been thriving in multiple business ventures, from his Twitch streaming success to his Nappy Boy brands—spanning entertainment, gaming, automotive, and beverages.
Recently, he sparked conversation with his take on $OME $EXY $ONGS 4 U, the collaborative album from Drake and PartyNextDoor. During a Twitch stream, he noted the project felt scattered, saying, “I’m not saying that they’re bad… these are just songs that didn’t make albums.”
While fans await his next musical move, T-Pain remains busy shaping his legacy on his own terms.
