The global record label Empire<\/a> is joining forces with Nebula in a new partnership, and it\u2019s an exciting moment for the future of music. By coming together, Empire and Nebula can bring their passion for great music to life. This is a bold new step in music economics. Now, we\u2019re closer to the dream of letting artists everywhere control their own future.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Introducing The Empire Music Label<\/strong><\/h2>\n

What Is Empire, And Who Owns It? <\/span><\/h3>\n

Empire is no typical record label: based in Silicon Valley and the first label to focus on emerging digital trends like streaming, they were coined as the quiet giant of the industry by major music magazine <\/span>HipHopDX<\/span><\/a>. And it\u2019s a well-deserved title: founder Ghazi Shami was also first to pioneer non-exclusive label contracts, allowing artists to freely leave the label after each release. But they needn\u2019t worry: artists were so happy about this freedom, and Empire\u2019s successful <\/span>collaboration, that they <\/span>chose<\/span><\/i> to keep working with the label on a release-by-release basis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By avoiding <\/span>multi-year contracts<\/span><\/a>, less financial risk was involved with each release. This created room for more creative risk-taking, and that can only be a positive \u2013 artists were no longer laden with debt as a result of unrealistic advances.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An Investment In The Future Of Music<\/span><\/h3>\n

“With Nebula, we are changing the way an entire generation interacts with music and artists through transparency and innovation\u201d, said Ghazi Shami in Empire\u2019s official <\/span>press release<\/span><\/a>. As a music tech pioneer based in Silicon Valley, their backing of Nebula is a huge vote of confidence for the music economy; not only do they believe the industry can grow faster than it did in the last two decades, they\u2019re eyeing up opportunities others don\u2019t see yet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Empire\u2019s Most Successful Talent<\/span><\/h3>\n

The partnership between Nebula and Empire is built on global superstardom: Empire counts Grammy-winning Anderson .Paak, Yung Bleu, Kendrick Lamar, Money Man and many more amongst its talent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Nebula And Empire Are Partnering<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This partnership of two tech pioneers is an exciting step forward in new music economics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, artists that list music on Nebula have the chance to attain a label contract at Empire. How? Start by uploading your track to Nebula. Conversely, Empire artists can take advantage of growing music economics by earning additional money through Nebula. Both Nebula and Empire value music and respect the artist\u2019s creative freedom, and are joining forces in promoting and selling artists\u2019 work too.<\/span><\/p>\n

An established independent music label and distributor with a global presence like Empire is validating Nebula\u2019s business model and go-to-market approach. This is a huge win for the future of music: now, artists can get the whole pie, not just a slice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
