Hapilos Publishing’s Global Takeover

Dec 20, 2025

Hapilos Publishing, the global publishing arm of Hapilos Music Group has quietly become the dominant force in music publishing in the dancehall and reggae genre. 

 

Some of the genre’s biggest artists and most prolific songwriters have signed global publishing deals with Hapilos Publishing. This includes artists and songwriters such as Tommy Lee Sparta, Squash, Chronic Law and Najeeri. Hapilos Publishing’s roster also boasts producers such as DJ Mac, Troyton Hinds, Dan Sky, Kyle Butler and Maurice Linton of Armzhouse Records. 

 

“Our leveraging of Sony Music Publishing’s worldwide network and infrastructure allows Hapilos Publishing to be independent while providing our writers with the level of service and reach of a major publisher, giving our client the best of both worlds”, said Torey Williamson, Manager of Business and Catalog Acquisitions at Hapilos Publishing.

 

With a roster boasting over 450 songwriters across the globe and a catalog of over 5000 songs, Hapilos Publishing has truly become a global music publisher to reckon with.
