MUSIC group Chrysalis yesterday said albums from rapper Kanye West and British singer Adele should boost business in the current financial year.
The company, whose back catalogue includes tracks by David Bowie and Michael Jackson, said its encouraging release schedule made prospects for next year very exciting.
British singer-songwriter Rumer, rapper-turned-soul singer Cee Lo Green, and pop star Justin Timberlake all feature on a line-up to boost revenues, the company said.
Chrysalis, which recently agreed its sale to German group BMG for £107.4m, narrowed pre-tax losses from £3.8m to £3.7m in the year to September 30, while overall group revenues rose ten per cent to £69.8m.
