    Can you do a breakdown for artist who don’t want to start a record label? Or do you have from the past talking about it?

    I wish more people subscribed to your channel. It’s a place to obtain #FreeInformativeKnowledge into the Music Business. I’ve encountered many peoples profile’s on other platforms that claim that they are a CEO of a HipHop record label yet, they do not have an LLC. My question is, is it possible to own a record company and releasing music without a LLC?

    Yes but not a very good or secure one. Matter of fact i wouldn’t touch them with a 10ft pole.

    Please! Answer this question for me or anyone else that knows the answer. Thanks! Q: If you didn't have an agreement for a singer to sing your song however, I do own the copyright to the music and lyrics of the song, can I publish that song without the singer's permission or do I get their permission? I Don't mind doing things right, I just want to know my options/responsibilities.

    Hello. I have the LLC and it’s as publisher with BMI. All music & lyrics are mine and with copyright. I have a new country album (not a vinyl yet only will stream). Can the same name LLC be the record label and can I sign myself? Can this allow me as an artist move forward and maybe be accepted in a category to get into any awards? Or does one HAVE to be with a big record company?

    You can you'd just have to replace a few things for your country vs the US. LLP instead of LLC, SOCAN instead of BMI and ASCAP, and CMRRA instead of HFA and MLC.
