Or you can just copyright your beats, and if someone tries to steal your beat and upload it on TH-cam. They won't be able to monetize and profit off of it. Actually the song will still have ads it's just you will be receiving the money
Markus Scott you are absolutely correct, I'll add also that the copyright process can take some time therefore making the beat available for distribution enables you to monetize and profit off of their stolen song if they upload it to TH-cam.
"Don't try to call the police" hahahaha you crazy bro. But this has to be on of the most insightful videos for producers. Appreciate the knowledge my brother.
Curtis this like the most logical methods I seen to solving this issue .. its rappers shooting videos to beat I made they don't even own and collecting royalties for I been tryna see what I can do about it ..
That's absolute wild and messed up too that some of these producers/artist are so unoriginal that they steal other beats, but you gave some wisdom & insight of it, it's free publicity for the untagged artist, then they can take advantage of it and tag their beats and all. That is some good advice.
"Without the beat, there is no song" - "Without the song, there ain't no money" 💰 If anyone's getting rich, I'm getting a percentage of royalties 👑 P.S. Some lawyers offer no upfront fee, given that you have substantial evidence -that you are in fact, the owner. 💼
nice advice man ! The main thing i want to know is how to know if people are using your beats. Im pretty sure a lot of rappers are using my beats but how i can find out?
I have an artist that's going through this issue right now. Another artist used his beat that he outright owns, but he's worried on how to move forward. Thanks for this posting.
Prod. K-Night Lol be careful what you wish for. I used to feel the same way, until the high of someone rapping over my beat was over and I wanted my money!
Deadtalks it’s not as cool as u think. Makes u feel like ppl don’t respect u regardless how hot ur shit is . Bc rappers don’t care they will just take ur shit
I still love your videos. Thank you for what you do. Keep giving and I hope you get blessed. kyngsolo approved :) THATS GREAT and I hope ppl take this into consideration
So i have this burning question: How can I keep track of what an artist that either stole my beat or someone who leased it is doing with it so I know that the one who stole it is no monetizing from it and that the one who actually bought it with a contract is following that contract? is there like an automated system that helps me do that or is it a more manual process of steps that I have to take in order from me knowing that someone is exploiting financially it withought me the original creator benefiting from it?
One question tho, so you saying even after the artist uses the song and has uploaded it to the streaming sites. I can still go ahead and upload it after him and cause an interruption on his original song cause of content ID? If thats the case then the next step is to proof that I'm the sole owner of the instrumental correct? Correct me if im wrong.
I know you may not use content ID if your beat contains free royalty samples or loops that weren't edited or tweaked enough as content ID is only for beats or music you really made from scratch and you own but I was wondering the same thing what will happen if you register it with content ID after the song was released already. @Curtiss King TV can you highlight this one pls? djpain1 also suggested not to use content ID after you upload your beats on YT, that way you can check if an artist has purchased a license or not. It's just the opposite.
Bruhh... This nigga Curtis really droppin gems on niggas consistent as fuck for FREE!! Idono how anybody could hate on the man without feelin aggressively bitchmade. If only Justice League coulda seen this before they went on that Twitter rant about Chance the Rapper. Lol Keep doin your thing Curt!! You earned yourself a loyal subscriber no doubt.
Good advice! I had a beat stolen after they reached out to me, they just used the tagged version which is also free advertising but I was sooo pissed!! It's got like 20,000 views on SoundCloud with no credits. I'm def going to follow your advice. "Why didn't you pay for this beat though?"
SMIZZLE BEATZ it's a terrible feeling to have beats that you spend so much time on to perfect, stolen without a care. But it can be a blessing in disguise when you are able to find ways to use it to your advantage.
if they are making money from it and you arent getting any then get in touch because the minute you export it its protected by copyright in the united states
Ok so I got a question , I been rappin for bout 15 years , 2 years ago I decide to enroll in Los Angeles film school for my bachelors in music production , music business and artist management, should I release my beats under the same distribution I rap under to be more consistent and drop hook packs and unfinished projects as beat packs for the consumer and should it be on all platforms or do you think that would make me look unprofessional
Thank you dog for this I got my melody starter stolen and it's a song that released today. And i made the same melody 4 months ago and I remember i just been sending them everywhere
Thanks for the advice you really prepare up and coming people moving into an incredible open industry that is now more available and accessible to anybody because artists run out of ideas and the people around run dry to they have a market place to come to but as you say the right care and protection of the product must be consider to 10 stars 4 u
I got one question, how can i find if someone has stolen my beat, is there a way i'm new to this, can i scan it ,i dont know like u can scan with shazam to find it?
Sensible advice. Just won a fan. I love sharing beats thru collab for free. But man I ALWAYS pay for beats that i use for my own vocal projects. If it ever happens that someone steals my work, glad to have this advice to leverage the situation
A shitty-rapper register a song with my beat that reached a million views, with the fucking ContentID, so is on Spotify etc etc... with ONErpm... can i do something?
So just to confirm, Curtiss. Regarding the second option, would I have to upload the instrumental BEFORE the they do? If so how can I anticipate when the rappers are going to upload it?
Hey Curtiss man I love ya videos.. I got a question.. is it better to get your song mixed in studio with an engineer or better to send ya song to a engineer u don't know to get it mixed online? I have seen s lot of online mixing services lately but I feel an artist actually being in the studio is better
Man I watch all your video's and listen to as much of your music as I can ahaha I can't believe I have yet to subscribe to you yet. I hope to meet you one day man, Big ups!
You can also sell the beat your store, if it's a big song every big rapper will want to do the 'Their Name Remix', Its a lot easier to do that if you can just go buy the beat since the rapper that stole it obviously didn't buy the exclusives.
What do we do when someone steals your hook melody and the lyrics they change just a little bit but keep the same whole song concept? I stopped putting out songs cuz labels kept stealing my (copywrited and registered w my publishing co) songs I wrote. They always change them up just enough to keep getting away with it. As an independent artist/songwriter this is extremely frustrating when this happens & they are mega pop stars reworking my songs & not contacting me whatsoever. Could u make a vid on this?
Hi I'm an Musician And My Music Was Stolen It Was a freestyle my phone was Pinged by the police when I was a minor for not showing up at home but later on my music was stolen over the wiretap (Pinged phone) but it was freestyle so I didn't think to write it down and several more freestyles were stolen too what should I Do?
I thought if you have your copyright on music, you sit back and let it make as much money as possible then send notices to record company and publishers that an infringement has occurred and we need to talk.
One time a rapper stole my beat and put a loud ass gunshot effect over my tag
song leaks sameeeee bro deadass I hate these rappers man

Curtiss King TV you gotta point there bro lol but I believe when the copyright is pending your still covered. But either method is good enough
How do I copyright my beats?
@@CurtissKingTV they steal my beat off youtube, make a song and upload it to youtube lol
Is song trust the same as copyright
Definitely had a few of my beats stolen before. In a way I was kind of honored because it shows that I was on to something. Thank you!
There's actually a new and easy way to track artists and contect creators who steal your beats. Check the video on our channel

"Without the beat, there is no song" - "Without the song, there ain't no money" 💰
If anyone's getting rich, I'm getting a percentage of royalties 👑
P.S. Some lawyers offer no upfront fee, given that you have substantial evidence -that you are in fact, the owner. 💼
Thanks for the "Behind the beat" tip!
ikr but what if the artist isnt that popular should we still do the behind the beat video!?
Yes!
Great video my G! You're growing so much since the first video I seen from you! I'm happy for you, You deserve it
That’s a great idea doing a Behind the beat video, I never thought about that. So insightful I like that. That’s why I like your channel.
Great video! It's amazing to me that signed &/or well known artist would use a mixed down lown quality youtube without the stems.
You never fail to impress me with your wisdom, Curtiss! Can't be thankful enough :D
Good shit!!!!💯💯💯💯💯💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Great advice man thanks

Man I WISH rappers would steal my beats lmao
Prod. K-Night Lol be careful what you wish for. I used to feel the same way, until the high of someone rapping over my beat was over and I wanted my money!
Yo, you should make some videos on helping producers like me to get their name out there
advertising, etc
Deadtalks it’s not as cool as u think. Makes u feel like ppl don’t respect u regardless how hot ur shit is . Bc rappers don’t care they will just take ur shit
I wish someone stole my beat so i could sue them lmao
spotlight moonlight Why sue them? why not just respectfully work something out?
Pure wisdom!!!
I still love your videos. Thank you for what you do. Keep giving and I hope you get blessed. kyngsolo approved :) THATS GREAT and I hope ppl take this into consideration
Word - a practical strategy for, initially, an undesirable predicament. Good video.
