BENEE'S "SUPA" BIG PUB CONTEST ENDS AT SONY/ATV (UPDATE)

The wild and woolly publishing contest for Republic's streaming and radio breakout BENEE is over, as the New Zealand-bred phenom lands at Sony/ATV.

All the big players and a few others are said to have been in the mix for this 20-year-old Kiwi artist, whose "Supalonely" is a DSP monster and a Pop radio missile. Attorney Peter Lewit is feeling pretty Supa himself.

This is not the only big inking for the House of Platt in the last few days; another Lewit-repped creator, DJ K.i.D., who has six cuts on DaBaby's new smash set, has also landed at the pubbery.
