Description

Up for auction is a catalog of three diverse songs performed by three different artists: R&B crooner Tank, Mexican pop princess Sofia Reyes and none other than Ariana Grande herself!

The highest earner in the catalog is the song “Muévelo” performed by Latin pop star Sofia Reyes featuring Wisin. Released in 2014, the song accounts for 69% of historic earnings. “Muévelo” has a strong streaming presence with over 51 million Spotify streams, ranking second among Reyes' most popular Spotify songs. The song reached No. 18 on both Billboard's US Latin Pop Songs and Mexico (Billboard Mexican Airplay) and is certified-Platinum in Spain (PROMUSICAE).

Ariana Grande's, “Lovin It” is the most visible track in the catalog. The song is off her debut solo album Yours Truly from 2013. The album debuted No. 1 on US Billboard 200 charts and is certified-Platinum in 2016. “Lovin It” has over 20 million Spotify plays, while Ariana Grande ranks an impressive 4th in the world for Spotify monthly listeners.

The final track to make up this catalog is “F In Wit Me,” performed by R&B veteran Tank. The song is the second highest-earner with 19% of earnings to date. The hit is off Tank's seventh studio album, Sex Love & Pain II, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard R&B chart and No. 15 on Billboard 200.

Key Drivers

Streaming. According to the BuzzAngle 2017 Music Report, pop titles were the third-most streamed songs last year, representing 15.6% of all streams. Streaming accounts for 45% of this pop catalog's earnings last year and these earnings are on the rise -- growing over 100% in the last 12 months!

New Releases. Ariana Grande just recently released a new album Sweetener in August of 2018. While the new songs are not included in this auction, new releases can help boost an artist's back catalog. The release of new music draws discovery among first-time listeners and re-engages existing fans.
