Primary Wave Music has announced a partnership with the estate of Donna Summer, the late R&B and disco artist known for songs including “I Feel Love,” “Bad Girls,” and “Hot Stuff.” Under the agreement, the estate works with Primary Wave on Summer’s music catalog and related recordings. The deal also includes rights tied to Summer’s name and image, which Primary Wave describes as “NIL” rights, intended to expand how her music and personal brand are used. Both outlets report that the partnership is designed to help broaden the reach of Summer’s catalog while allowing the estate to participate in revenue associated with the granted rights. Variety frames the arrangement as the acquisition of Summer’s music catalog and other rights by Primary Wave in collaboration with the estate, while Billboard emphasizes the estate’s role and the inclusion of NIL rights alongside the music rights. Neither source provides additional details such as financial terms, duration of the agreement, or specific planned campaigns.
