HarbourView Equity Partners has agreed to acquire the publishing catalog and select masters of artist, producer and songwriter T-Pain.
T-Pain is a six-time Grammy Award winner. HarbourView notes that he has sold over 50 million singles, accumulated billions of streams, and racked up 10 No.1s on the Billboard Hot 100.
Added T-Pain: “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.”

Since its inception in 2021, HarbourView says that it has amassed roughly $1.45 billion in regulatory assets under management including over 60+ music catalogs to date and investments in two media production companies, MACRO and Mucho Mas Media, both with a mission to center premium storytelling.
The firm’s music portfolio features a catalog of more than 29,000 songs across both master recordings and publishing income streams.
The company’s portfolio of music assets includes James Fauntleroy, George Benson, Noel Zancanella, Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie, Pat Benatar, Neil Giraldo, Nelly, Jeremih, Wiz Khalifa, Kane Brown, Full Force and more.
Last year, HarbourView secured $500 million in debt financing led by investment giant KKR.
In an interview with MBW last year, Sherrese Clarke said HarbourView has a “global audience frame” and is “focused on building an investment firm across the entertainment, media, and sports segments. We invest in things outside of music [and] what that creates is a very rich ecosystem. It is more than acquiring only music and music catalogs.”
