Royalty-Tied NFTs

Nas Has Partnered Up with 'Royal' to Sell the Rights to Two of His Songs

— January 7, 2022 — Pop Culture
'Royal,' the online investment platform, has received the opportunity to sell two Nas NFTs through a collaboration with the popular rapper by the same name. There will be two Nas NFTs that are each based on the singer's songs, the first is 'Rare' which will have 1,110 tokens, while the second is 'Ultra Black' which will have 760 tokens.

These two NFTs will be unique in the NFT space as having one of them will give the owner a portion of the royalties and streaming rights to the song that corresponds to the NFT. There will be tiers among the tokens of each NFT with different tiers corresponding to different levels of investment. The price range for these NFT tokens ranges from roughly $50 USD to $10,000 USD.
