\n\tFrank Sinatra Enterprises (FSE) confirmed the deal in a statement to Billboard<\/em>: \u201cFrank Sinatra Enterprises, Tina Sinatra, and Warner Music Group are delighted to welcome Irving Azoff and Iconic to the dedicated team serving the life\u2019s work and legacy of Frank Sinatra.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tIn 2007, Sinatra\u2019s family and Warner Music Group (WMG) formed Frank Sinatra Enterprises, a global partnership to manage all aspects of Sinatra\u2019s career, as well as his name and likeness. The deal also included ownership of Sinatra\u2019s recordings from his Reprise era. Sinatra started Reprise, which is now owned by WMG, in 1960. FSE also represents Sinatra\u2019s rights to his Columbia and Capitol catalogs.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt is unclear how much of the estate IAG acquired. Azoff declined to comment beyond his Screentime remarks, as did FSE beyond its statement. WMG also declined to comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe deal comes nearly three years after Iconic made an agreement <\/a>with the Dean Martin<\/a> Family Trust to manage and expand the fellow Rat Packer\u2019s legacy. The deal included name, image and likeness, as well as the trust\u2019s share of Martin\u2019s Capitol and Reprise Records sound recordings, feature films, and Martin\u2019s variety shows and specials.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring Azoff\u2019s Q&A at Bloomberg<\/em>, moderator Lucas Shaw, Bloomberg\u2019s managing editor of media and entertainment, also asked Azoff what he considers the most valuable catalog in the world. \u201cI normally would have said The Beatles<\/a>, but I\u2019m not sure that\u2019s true anymore,\u201d Azoff said. \u201cYou maybe gotta say Taylor [Swift]<\/a> at this point.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIAG works with a number of other artists and estates, including The Beach Boys<\/a>, Linda Ronstadt<\/a>, Cher<\/a>, Rod Stewart <\/a>and Nat King Cole<\/a>, among others. Azoff told Bloomberg<\/em>\u2018s Shaw that The Beach Boys\u2019 revenue has doubled since IAG got involved in their business.<\/p>\n
