Topic Reading-Vol.3170-12/15/2020

Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Bob Dylan sells his entire catalog of songs to Universal

He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016 without having written novels. Bob Dylan is one of the most reputed and admired singers and songwriters of all time. He has been writing and singing more than 600 songs for over 60 years in his career. Amazingly, he’s still performing at the age of 79. Recently, he sold the entire catalog to Universal. The reason to have cashed in his entire intellectual asset is still unknown, but judging from his insightful and provocative works and also being a recipient of a Nobel Prize, he must have some undisclosed intention to make use of the cash. The music company that struck the deal is also delighted by this purchase and cited it was a privilege and also a responsibility for them.

While he will be 80 next year and is still expected to be performing for some time, the world would wonder what he’s up to.

Enjoy reading the article and learn about a historic move by a legendary musician.
