Warner Chappell Inks Haan
• Warner Chappell Music has signed a worldwide co-publishing deal with Haan, described as “one of Australia’s most dynamic up and coming producers.”
A longtime collaborator of The Kid LAROI, the Los Angeles-based Haan helped produce the massive Kid LAROI & Justin Bieber collaboration, “Stay,” which which hit the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 1 on Spotify’s Global Streaming chart, and No.1 on Billboard’s Global 200 chart for a record-breaking ten weeks. “Stay” also recently hit an incredible milestone with over one billion streams on Spotify in just 118 days — the fastest song ever to do so.
Ryan Press, who was recently elevated to President, North America, for Warner Chappell Music, 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.”
