    Can confirm these numbers and the fact that a big catalogue of smaller songs can be more powerful than 1 huge hit. It’s actually amazing how much money can be generated with pub, writers share and master. We producers need to put in more pressure about the master tho.

    So if you started out in 2019, you’ve made about 42k a year on average so far. On one hand, you are definitely being underpaid considering how many streams you’ve had. But on the other hand, you’re still getting paid to do what you love, which makes you luckier than 99.99% of human beings.

    whatup Kxvi, I've been watching for a little while now, and I was wondering, did I understand correctly, can you use beatstars publishing as your publisher for your own songs, like with vocals and everything, full songs, or is it just for beats? And what is your stance on choosing a publisher, as I want to release my own songs very soon but don't know whether to use say, Beatstars Publishing, DistroKid, Ditto, or any others if there's better, again not for beats but songs, would love to hear your advice!
