Rophnan has released the second album of his III-VI-IX trilogy 'VI' at the same time announcing a partnership deal with Universal Music Group (UMG), the world's largest music production organisation in the world. In 2021 alone, UMG netted a profit in excess of USD 15 billion; for context, Ethiopia's annual revenue from exported services and goods is approximately USD 3.8 billion. Rophnan is the first Ethiopian artist to join the prestigious organisation.

While the first album in the trilogy, 'III' (Sost in Amharic) was dedicated to Ethiopia's past glory, VI (Sidist), is a call to the present to operate in mindfulness of the future, presumably 'XI', which will also be released under UMG. @linkupbusiness
