Warner Chappell Music signs co-publishing deal with emerging Australian producer Haan

22 November 2021 - Press release

 

Warner Chappell Music has signed a worldwide co-publishing deal with Haan, one of Australia’s most dynamic up and coming producers. A longtime collaborator of The Kid Laroi, Haan helped produce the massive global hit “Stay,” which tore up the global charts and recently hit an incredible milestone with over one billion streams on Spotify – the fastest song ever to do so, in just 118 days. 

Warner Chappell Music President, North America, Ryan Press, said: “Haan is already a master of his craft and working with some of the biggest names in the industry. We couldn’t be more excited to team up with him and can’t wait to see what’s in store for him as he continues to create hits and build his career.”

Haan stated: "I'm excited to join the Warner Chappell family and add to the amazing list of producers that call Warner their home. I can't wait to get started with the team and find ways to elevate as both a producer and businessman. Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible."

Los Angeles-based Australian producer Haan is one of the few Aussie hip-hop producers in the American music scene. In early 2020, the rookie producer partnered with Sydney-raised rapper The Kid LAROI on the bass-heavy hit song “Addison Rae,” which gained popularity on TikTok and earned gold certification in Australia. Haan has also worked with the likes of Juice WRLD, G-Herbo and Sydney producer, Khaled. Most recently, he teamed up with Charlie Puth, FnZ, Cashmere Cat, Omer Fedi, and Blake Statkin to produce The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s single “Stay,” which hit the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, reached No. 1 on Spotify’s Global Streaming chart, and hit No.1 on Billboard’s Global 200 chart for a record-breaking ten weeks

The deal was done in collaboration with Foundation Media Partners’ Patrick Hughes, Harvey Russell and the team at Grade A Productions.
