Solana-based NFT marketplace Snowcrash will release NFT collections of Bob Dylan and Miles Davis later this year. Solana-based NFT marketplace Snowcrash has announced that Sony Music and Universal Music Group — the two largest music labels in the world — have officially partnered with the upcoming platform. The two music labels will release Bob Dylan and Miles Davis NFT collections later this year, ahead of wider integration with their rosters of artists. Jesse Dylan, who probably not coincidentally is Bob Dylan’s son, is the co-founder of the Snowcrash marketplace, which draws its namesake from Neal Stephenson’s 1992 sci-fi novel that also invented the term Metaverse. Bob Dylan is a major investment by both labels: UMG spent around $400 million on his song catalog in 2020, while Sony bought his recorded music rights for more than $150 million last year. In a statement , Dylan the younger stipulated that the current market for NFTs is just “the tip of the iceberg” and that he opted for the Solana blockchain over the Ethereum network to launch the platform because he believes it is better for the environment.

With Warner Music Group, K-Pop. and Dolly Parton entering the Metaverse, the Metaverse should be in for a busy year ahead.
