300 Publishing is joining forces with Warner Chappell Music to sign both emerging and established songwriters.
300 Publishing is the publishing division of Warner Music Group label 300 Entertainment.
The new venture includes hitmakers such as 300 Publishing’s Sean Momberger (pictured), who co-produced Kendrick Lamar’s Not Like Us, as well as Jack Harlow’s Lovin’ On Me.
The venture will be spearheaded by 300 Publishing vice president Jenn Essiembre.
Jenn Essiembre said: "It all starts with a song. At 300 Publishing, we're fiercely committed to songwriter development and building careers from the ground up. I'm honoured that Kevin has entrusted me to spearhead this business, and am looking forward to working with the team at Warner Chappell to supercharge our offering."
300 Elektra Entertainment chairman and CEO Kevin Liles said: "Jenn has been instrumental in developing 300 Publishing and is the only person I'd want steering this ship – she's a force in the industry and has already made a huge impact with top-tier signings and No.1 hits. Keeping it in the WMG family and partnering with the world-class WCM led by Guy and Carianne was an obvious choice for us. They're the best in the business and together we’ll expand our ability to deliver for our writers and producers.
“Rayna [Bass, 300 Entertainment co-president], Selim [Bouab, 300 Entertainment co-president], and I are committed to establishing a first class eco-system to be of service to the creative community. Our value proposition is that we are #biggerfamilybusiness."
WCM co-chair and CEO Guy Moot and co-chair and COO Carianne Marshall said: "We've been impressed with 300 and the work Kevin and team are doing to support artists and champion their music in bold new ways. We share a similar mindset at Warner Chappell and believe in doing things differently and carving our own path, so joining together with such an impactful team marks the beginning of a strong partnership. We look forward to all the great songwriters and artists we'll sign and develop together."
Roster highlights include Maria Becerra, who signed to WCM last year in partnership with 300 Publishing. Becerra has more than 23 million listeners on Spotify.
300 Publishing’s growing roster also features 1st Class (Anycia, BabyDrill, Karrahbooo, DaBaby), Jumbo Sounds (2Rare, Philly Goats, Lay Bankz, D Sturdy), Spencer Jordan (Knox, Gayle, Braden Bales) and Will Power (Coi Leray, Flo Milli, Gloss Up, Lakeyah), in addition to artists such as YNW Melly, No Savage, OMB Peezy and Lil Keed.
In the last year, 300 Publishing signees have co-written and/or co-produced music for Drake, Jack Harlow, Metro Boomin, Doja Cat, Morgan Wallen, Travis Scott, Megan Thee Stallion, Gunna, Babyface, Nicki Minaj, YG, Tyga, Quavo, Flo Milli, Offset, Don Toliver, Hunxho, and more.
