Odeal is the latest addition to the Sony Music Publishing roster.

On Dec 8, the British-Nigerian singer and songwriter signed a worldwide deal with the major music publisher, several weeks after releasing his album, The Fall That Saved Me.

“Signing Odeal was more than a business move. It was the natural next step in a relationship built on passion, respect and a shared vision,” comments Sony Music Publishing senior director, creative A&R Shauni Caballero in a statement. “I’ve always admired his artistry and the incredible team behind him — Charles, Hanz, AB and the OVMBR family. They’re hardworking, inspiring and an absolute pleasure to collaborate with. I’m truly grateful to be part of their journey and their history.”

Odeal caught the buzz in 2024 with the viral hit “Soh-Soh,” which proved a launch pad into the awards circuit. This year alone, he has collected MOBO (Music of Black Origin) Awards for best newcomer and best R&B act; shortlisting for the BET Awards’ inaugural best new international act; Amazon Music’s 2025 breakthrough artist; Spotify’s 2025 artist to watch; entry to YouTube Music’s 2025 Foundry program, and a nod as Billboard’s 2025 African Rookie of the Year.
