Are we on the edge of a music industry revolution? Top investor and founder of SONGS and MUSIC, Matt Pincus, joins host Kristin Robinson this week to discuss how the landscape of music catalog investing has evolved.

He and Robinson break down how Taylor Swift has reshaped the conversation around catalog sales, whether AI is the next big disruptor for music creation and what all this means for the industry’s future.

Great conversation not sexy but very valuable.
Very insightful into the business which is a must-have education so this is ssssweet!
“ the vibes feel off” sorry I just threw up in my mouth
These interviews have all been great so far – more please!
Just drove 7 hours to see Matt and Judge in Philly this month! They killed it.
Might wanna mention that Matt Pincus is from a billionaire family – his father is Lionel Pincus, who started the Warburg-Pincus private equity firm. He can claim his punk roots all he wants, but he’s a 1%’er all the way!
