BMG and KKR first announced their music partnership in Mar. 2021 in an effort to “pursue recorded music, music publishing and other music rights acquisitions.”

Legend is one of only 15 individuals to have earned E.G.O.T. status with an Emmy for Outstanding Variety Special (Live) in 2018 for his role as executive producer in Jesus Christ Super Star Live In Concert, 10 Grammy wins, an Oscar at the 87th Academy Awards for Best Original Song for his song “Glory” in the film Selma and a Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play with his production Jitney.
