Wonderful, wise explanations. Thank you.

Thank you so much Ms Watkins.

So If I Buy The Beats Exclusively and Write A Song To It and Record It Would I Have 100% Of The Master Recordings? Or Would I Have To Split Sheet It With The Producer?

What if no documents have ever been Signed where do you go from there

Do you have a iG

Think I have a case? Listen to Tobey by Eminem, listen to the lead melody then listen to Joker by Kid Kurtis.

Thank you for this. You touched on something that I'm still not completely clear on. Do I need to/or is it recommended to get a completely separate bar code (UPC) for different formats of the same music album? Such a distinct barcode for the digital release, another for the Physical C.D, and another for the Vinyl release? Also, does the vinyl record release differ in any way from the others in terms of the individual ISRC codes (for individual songs) since it is basically all one track on a vinyl record? Thanks in advance, this is all so confusing..haha

You are so pleasant I appreciate learning this from you thank you

Do they accept copyright the proof you went to the copyright office and have a register number?

Hello Ma, I really appreciate you and your efforts on how to publish music I have flute content on my CZcams, which has went viral, and I cannot make money on it. I don’t know way out.

So, I’m not an artist, a songwriter, etc. I just want to start my own radio station in my own home playing music, and maybe play some commercials (sponsors). Which license do I need?

Wow! Thanks for all this!

Thanks for bringing everything all the way down to earth. I have been out of the biz for 25 years and your videos are helping me ease back in. I just subscribed.

Hello! Thanks for the value! How much does one spin on independent radio (internet radio/non -terrestrial) earn? I read as much as $1.35 per spin, not sure if that’s accurate

Great video. So if I add "spoken word" to the instrumental bridge of a cover song, does that create a derivative work? Or is that still a cover that enjoys compulsory licensing?

How do I find my UPC code for my song without y distribution company

Filing SR is basically having your publishing rights and masters.

thank u, going to make my multi-millions now...

Helpful THX

Thank you!

Thank youd!

Thank you for the clear info. I was wondering about the Content ID Claims in some of my videos. Will it affect my eligibility in joining the CZcams Partner Program in future?

Nicely explained !

Useful....very useful

Is 33% of performance rights also standard?

Perfect video, thank you kindly!

I have stumbled into a weird one that no one has brought up on these kinds of channels, thought you might be interested. It's called, SoundMouse. They are a fingerprinting technology that the PROs are using. The problem is, they didn't tell the publishers they switched to this. So starting in 2017, apparently you have to upload your music directly to this company if you are an self-publishing. They account for various kinds of royalties that fall outside of the mainstream usages but also a very important one, radio commercials. The entire reason I found out is because I had a track used on a radio spot that ASCAP didn't pay for. They direct people to check with SoundMouse. So I have messages all over the place. Good thing is that it was my publishers job and they did it back in 2012. So hopefully that will get resolved after some time. The next thing I need to do is establish an account with them which is something I'm working on so that I can then upload the songs for fingerprinting that I have published myself. Passing this along, not sure why there are no youtube videos about this. If I complete the registration process I'll do one.

Do you have an email for contact? It would be helpful to reach out because I am very new to all of this. I have quite a few questions relating to this video but also beyond this video as well. But for the sake of this video, I would like to ask a question. I am distributing music with Tunecore but I am in the process of registering my works with BMI. I am really confused on the publishing portion of when BMI is asking about publishing and percentage, but i dont have a publisher, I only distribute music with Tunecore. Do I leave that section blank?

I have questions about content id clam i uploaded 1 my won shorts video but i used 0.15 second music there is not showing copyright there is showing only (shorts policy) when i take action there are not showing 3 option like replace song,mute music and cut there is only option dispute in that Case how to solve?

Some one deleting my numbers the audience listening the song. Number of the my song is not moving. Why.?

Have you ever received a licensing agreement from tiktok through music reports we don't understand it if it's a good thing or a bad thing? It says non exclusive and will be binded until Dec 2025 but everything else we're unsure of? He just wants to be able to have his music elsewhere and used as well on other non exclusive places. We don't know what to do?

Thank you so much

You are terrific.

So, if someone interprets some of the same lyrics of another song in their new song is called interpolation and not sampling?

Thank you for making this so clear! No fluff is always appreciated :)

I like your quick and easy explanation video's

Is this only for America?

Most concise video on the subject. Thanks!

I am

The Big Diffrent Between Beat Maker And Music Producer is, Beat Maker is Spesific For Hip Hop Music , but Music Producer for Most Generated Music Genre, my english is Bad,

Beat maker is a definition in Hip Hop Music Circle, in other's genre like EDM, Rock, Metal, Pop or Any music Industry we will didn't find "BeatMaker" Word, So Beat Maker is just for Hip Hop Music Genre. its Same With Classical Music, you will Didn't Find Music Producers But You Will Wind Music Composer. im Sorry My English is Bad.

What is the point of adding this metadata if you can then delete the inserted data with the same program? It's very important to insert the ISRC code, but if someone doesn't want to identify the tracks works for the rights, just use the same program to remove all the tags you inserted, right?

These videos are so helpful. Thank You! please keep uploading content.

How do we get in contact with the Original Owner? I have a written sample of new Lyrics entirely of a significant collection of songs, and I wish go use the original existing song tunes and add some addd flares and snares, and treat this as an alternative perspective/part 2/part 3.

I love your voice and the paste of your speech. Not too fast and not too slow

Hey Good day Music business made easy am doing a song with different writers. Should we all get a copy of our own splt sheet and everyone fill in the info or do we use one split sheet and everyone fill that one split sheet

Wonderful explanation and soothing voice!

This exact thing happened to me in the past. I was producing two different singer/songwriter girls. And both deals fell through. One girl decided she wanted to go to college instead and left our agreement on the table. Never got paid for all my work. The other singer became pregnant and had to stop for a long time. When the baby was born. She didn’t have time anymore and wasn’t enthusiastic about recording anymore. I was 23 at the time. They were both 17. What a waste of time and experience, that I was actually glad I went through. It taught me a lesson. Thanks for this video.
