Artist Advice: "The Benefits of Owning Your Publishing"

Музыка

Copyright is the most important asset you have as a musician and understanding it’s concepts and how to maximize income from it can turn around your career, make you money and help you get exposure.
If you own 100% of the publishing on your songs, you’ll be able to collect all royalties owed to you from public performance, digital (internet radio and on-demand streaming), synchronization (TV, film, and video games), mechanical royalties (sales of physical recordings and downloads).
Check out our interview with Combat Jack discussing the benefits of owning your publishing.

    I Got 5 On It sampled Top Billing..."Got It Good" Yo-Yo sampled Top Billing in Mackstress. Milk got a % of those royalties. Music publisher owns the performance rights to the lyrics and music. Which is the copyright to the lyrics and music of a song. Normally, the record label owns the copyright to the sound recording of the music. Which is commonly known as the "masters" or "master recording." If someone samples the sound recording of the song, that person must pay the record label (the owner of the sound recording) for its use. They must also pay the music publisher (the owner of the lyrics and music of the song). The publisher will pay the songwriter and composer of the song. If someone samples the lyrics and music by replaying the music and reciting the lyrics, they do not have to pay the record label. But they will need to pay the music publisher (the owner of the lyrics and music of the song). In both cases, the songwriters and composers will get a share of writer credits for the new song that is using their lyrics and music. Their percentage can be whatever they want. Example: Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz song, De Ja Vu (Uptown Baby) contained a sample. The sample owner got 100% of the writer/publishing of that song. Same stuff happened with Verve's bittersweet symphony. Rolling Stones owns that new song. Because Verve used their sample. When you own the publishing to a song, you will always get paid when someone uses your song. You can be unfair like the rolling stones, etc, and demand all the royalties for the new song, even if they sampled 1% of your song. You can be fair and demand a reasonable %. If they don't like it, they can always remove the sample and not use it for their new song. If you sign over your publishing like George Clinton, you miss out on all those royalties. Dr. Dre, Erick Sermon, and an enormous amount of hip hop producers have sampled Parliment and Funkadelic. Since George Clinton doesnt own his publishing, he missed out on all those royalty opportunities.

    Sir mix alot said the same thing about Baby got back. He said his mission wasn't to be a life long rapper. All he said that he needed just one song to stick because he owns every song he's put out. Mix said it himself that Baby Got Back earned him over 100 mil in royalties since the 90s and he's still getting paid.

    It must indeed be crazy for lawyers who are fighting for one "side" in one instance, and another side in another scenario.. 😅 Seeing it from both sides of the table too, there's no one-size-fits-all with publishing; some may benefit more from keeping it & others may benefit more from giving it up in exchange for an advance, them being employed as a songwriter and/or the songs being worked for them.. ✍🏾 - @Acharich

    Yes but but but how do you get your song into tvshows and films. You have to pay someone to pitch it. Thats what a publishing company does right? To own your own publishing is like starting a publishing company. Its seems like a lot of hard and difficult work to start pitching your song without any network.

    He spends way more than his records can provide. Dude spends mindlessly on 50 million dollar deals. Power is his most used song on the market currently. Also being in debt doesn't mean you're broke, it means you have money but its gonna take you a while to pay back.

    Xoxxo Bob, thanks. So, the royalty rate is 9.10 cents per radio spin. If I split the publishing for the lyrics that I wrote 3 ways, is that 9.10 cents divided up 3 ways or do we each get 9.10 cents per radio spin?

    Well Elton John has a similar setup where he writes the music & someone else (Tim Rice, Bernie Taupin, or whoever) adds the lyrics.. I could be mistaken but I presume they split it 50/50.. U & ur producer can decide how u split that..

    If they aren't already big or established, they might need a publisher who employ them as a songwriter and/or will work the songs for them, so that both parties get more income.. 🔑 And even some established artists still give their publishing to publishers, in exchange for some fat cheques.. 💰💰💰💰💰 There's no one-size-fits-all with this.. Some keep it & can still do well.. Others need to give it up to have more money, which thus gives them more freedom to write.. 🤷🏾‍♂️
