Who Owns Neil Young's, Music Pfizer?
Pfizer does not own Neil Young's music. It is a multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology corporation, with no stake in the music industry.
In January 2022, Young, 76, sold his musical catalog to an investment fund called Hipgnosis, a UK company that has been identified as having a controlling share of almost all major corporations in all industries. Hipgnosis acquired 50% of Young's song catalog for around $150m.
The company in turn, created a $1B partnership with Blackstone to invest in songs, music IP, recorded music, and royalties.
