NEW YORK, NY – March 21, 2023 – Global publishing administrator Word Collections (https://www.wordcollections.com/ ), has entered in agreements to provide global publishing administration a new generation of rising stars including widely-hyped West-London rapper Xadi, atmospheric LA alt-songwriter Kowloon, emerging R&B singer Reggie Becton, and Indie-pop singer-songwriter Sarah Kang.
The news follows recent announcements of Word Collections entering into deals with established hitmakers John Oates, Sublime with Rome, Dirtyheads and Switchfoot, all as part of a rapid expansion of the company into global music publishing administration.
Word Collections delivers a unique, direct licensing business model, expertly executed, utilizing proprietary sound recording identification technology and ground-breaking income tracking systems. By identifying recordings that have previously been unaccounted for, Word Collections’ clients routinely see increases in income by hundreds of percentage points which are paid out 6-8 months more quickly. By cutting out layers of middle-men Word Collections true administration fee generally comes in 15-30% lower than utilizing the traditional publishing industry allows.

A year later, in August 2021, Word Collections expanded its global publishing administration repertoire to include musical compositions.
