Not at all. We represent songwriters, composers, and artists from across Africa and beyond.

Do you operate outside of South Africa?

Yes — we work across Africa and globally. Our catalogue includes international hits, and our reach extends through Downtown’s worldwide network.

Who is Downtown Music Publishing Africa?

We’re Africa’s largest independent music publisher — formerly Sheer Publishing — now part of Downtown Music Holdings. We help African creators manage their rights, collect their royalties, and grow their creative career with global support.

Why did Sheer rebrand to Downtown?

The rebrand reflects our next chapter. Same trusted team — now backed by a global powerhouse. This gives you access to better tools, more opportunities, and a broader network, without losing the local heart.
