American pop superstar Katy Perry has sold her music catalog rights to Litmus Music for $225 million. The deal includes Perry's stakes in master recordings and publishing rights for five albums released from 2008 to 2020: "One of the Boys," "Teenage Dream," "Prism," "Witness," and "Smile." Universal Music Group still retains the songwriting rights for all of these albums. Litmus Music, founded in 2022, had previously acquired the rights to recordings by Australian country singer Keith Urban. Litmus Music's founders expressed their admiration for Katy Perry's cultural impact and the opportunity to collaborate with her again on managing her catalog.
