MC Serch Is Selling His Portion Of Nas’ Catalog
MC Serch is selling 100 percent of his holdings in Nas’ catalog, which includes Illmatic and It Was Written. He executive produced both albums. He stated in an interview with Allhiphop, “I have decided to sell all of the rights, including the global rights. I started conversations with several companies a few months ago. For 27 years, it has provided my family through good times and bad. Now it’s time for a new chapter.” Serch estimates both projects combined are still streamed at least 250 million times a year. MC Serch and his companies Serchlite Publishing and Serchlite Music have retained rights to the two albums for almost three decades.
