She spreading knowledge that will help in the long run and y’all on here hating?!? Smh! Thank You!! 🙏🏼
Outstanding job
Thanks for the instructions. I do not think you have to have a Publisher. You can allocate all 200% to Writer(s) and you should get all the royalties from that work. Or am I wrong?
Tomin Tomovic without a publisher Spotify applemusic and so many other streaming platforms will NOT pay you
@@igobyneq I don't think this is correct. If we talk about the composer side of the work, they should pay to the BMI the full royalties disregarding that you have or do not have a publisher. Of course i you want to collect ALL the types of royalties (what is a different story) you need to register with music publishing administration (e.g. Songtrust) ADDITIONALLY and they will collect the rest of the royalties for you (including publisher's share). The recording side of those streaming royalties ("master") you get via distribution companies or labels, but I guess this is clear for everyone.
I talk about publishing in a different video. But you’re absolutely correct. I am a member of Songtrust
Good looks ma
well explained bro!!!!!! Only thing I never know what if the song is blowing and the composer has a publishing company but the author doesn’t have his end??! Can the composer/producer still get paid.?
If and artist raps over your beat and register the song and it is performing well you will see bmi statements reflecting that.
can you make a video on how to register an album? i having trouble on how to get to the splits per song. doing splits is different when registering an album vs a single
Do you have a copy of my book?
@@igobyneq I literally just stumbled on your page a few minutes ago.... I see that you have a book now. I will look into it
@@IG_Playglenthomas good for you 💯
if im registering a beat for a spotify release..( Beat Only) ... under publishers & writers section for any artists i select No, are there any recordings ? is it No or Yes? and was this created for a music library ?would that be No or Yes? i was thinking making just the beat on fl studio that would mean no recordings... and for a music library i wasn't sure because its for spotify and streaming services to generate royalty pay.
also when submitting from distrokid to spotify i have to select an artist name... so then would i select yes for" Any Artists"?
Hello, if you are still in need of personal help releasing your music please book a consultation and I can help you www.igobyneq.com/shop/30-minute-music-business-consultation
So will tunecore detect where my beats are being played collect the royalties for me? And do I get royalties if the rapper performs my song at a concert?
Only way to get paid is to have the songs registered on all platforms. watch the BDS, MEDIA vid posted.
Thank you!!
Thanks for the video. :)
You’re welcome. How’s things going with your music career? Have you have a chance to check out my book? I updated it for 2023 if you already got a copy check your email www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
but where do you actually upload the file of the beat?
You aren't required to send any files.
You have to register the files tho.. that's what she was saying with the isrp but she didn't really elaborate on it at all but yea u need to register the file.. once U get an isrp registration code then it'll be like 100,000 (very similar) codes specially for u and if u go into extracting the file it will either have an isrp already encrypted in it or you will need to manually do it yourself which shouldn't take longer than 5 mins.. just apply one of the many codes to a particular file.. there should be videos that go in depth how to do so
If you still need help registering and releasing your music, i wrote this book to make the process easier www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
ok i had some situations where i couldnt add a bmi writer with my publisher as ascap
That issue should be fixed by now.
My question is that if I sold a exclusive lease to an artist who plans on putting the final song with their vocals on it on all platforms and my % is 5 still do I put my share as 10% out of the 200%?
even if its exclusive you should still own 50%. Exclusive doesn't mean you sold your publishing rights, it just means you can't resell or re-use the beat for another purpose
Would I say this work has a sound recording when the person didn’t purchase a license?
??? What
How long does the response take?
Quick question . If I were to register a beat that I made , could I make changes to the beat after I register it. I.E add more drums / fx ect.
yes you can make changes
I'm trying to figure out what affiliation the artist is with. He's signed to Alamo records but should I just select bmi..?
He must be on a performance rights organization
HOW DO I REGISTER MY BEATS FOR I CAN SEE WHAT ARTIST USED MY BEATS WITH BEAT ID 🤔
Use my book to register your music then release your beats through beatstars. Here's the link to the book www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
hi so would I as a producer register the instrumental then later on a artist picks it up do I register a separate version of the instrumental with artist on it as well?
Hi have you figured this out yet? Because I'm currently having the same issue.
@@youngmooski5136 i know it's like a year late but... to help anybody who might be reading these, yes as far as bmi & ascap are concerned, your beat and that artist's song are two completely different musical works and should be registered seperately.

So you dont have to upload an mp3?
No
what did you sign up as ?
I am a registered songwriter
i really appreciate u
Quick question... I made a beat and I haven’t submitted my beat to BMI yet but the artist that rapped on my beat has a BMI acct and he put me and his name on the title and splitted it 50/50... so should I still register my beat as well or would that take care the both of us???
It's not necessary to register the beat as long as the artist credited you
if i registered my beat and gave myself 200% then someone came along later to purchase the beat what would be my next move to register with the artist to make sure they get their percentage?
that is not true. a producer gets 50 regardless if the beat if free or paid.
I never said anything about taking only 50% out of 200% where did u get that from?
oh ok its all good
Do I register my beats before uploading them to beatstars? What happens after I sell a beat exclusive with a 50/50 share of royalities? Do I have to so anything or will the artist do the necessary steps?
No, don't do it. It's a waste of time.
Unless the beat, as is, without vocals, is going to be played on radio, spotify, television, etc, then you don't need to register the beat because the beat won't generate any royalties. ASCAP/BMI doesn't protect/copyright your beats, doesn't automatically detect when your beats are used by artists, etc. There's no harm in registering a beat, but there's really no benefit either, so it's wasted time, especially if you are making 5-20 beats a week.
If you produce a beat that becomes a song that ends up getting added to spotify and ends up getting radio play/etc, then you will register the song with its new title and performer information to collect your money.
If your beats are being licensed to TV and Film as instrumentals, then you would be added to a cue sheet by a music supervisor through one of these PRO's.
Hope this clears up any confusion.
how you get your own publisher company??
makee beats you can sign up with bmi as a publisher or a writer. You should do both.
tysm dang i think i signed up as a songwriter can i redo it?
U need to sign up both publisher & songwriter .
Yes You can, I think on BMI You can register as publisher for free but have to pay something to be both.

If the artist buys a lease and drop a song, do I have to register my beat to get paid, or do I need to do this before selling?
Make sure when the artist register the song they credit you. Download my book so you can learn the registration process www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
💯💯💯💪
But here’s the thing. How is there a way to get a publisher when you’re not selling your beats and you are your own artist? Cause I write music for myself.
register with BMI or ASCAP as a publisher, then affiliate your publishing company with the harry fox agency
if i dont add a publishing company but the composer and author info add up to 200% is there money being left on the table still? also if i have a lease agreement for a certain number of sales with a producer do i specify that somewhere on there?
if you leasing a beat 9/10 you wont be registering the song on your BMI because you dont have full rights to the music. But you answer your question putting 200 will leave no money on the table so its good
how you gone cut the vid like that smh but thanks for the info
Thanks for watching. I have new content being uploaded to helpnavigate the 2020 music climate.
A lot of this is general information. What is the process for sample based beats ?
Top Flight clear the sample first then register the beat if you plan to release it without vocals
Do I register my beats before uploading them to beatstars? What happens after I sell a beat exclusive with a 50/50 share of royalities? Do I have to so anything or will the artist do the necessary steps?
No. Check my channel for a specific video on why you shouldn't spend time doing that.
check out my book i broke down the process of registering and releasing music so much easier www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
I am from Jersey how do I upload my beat and BMI as far as a WAV file how do I do it from there or how can I do it
You don’t upload beats to bmi
@@igobyneq I appreciate you and respond back to me the one of my peoples had told me that good looking for the information
If I liscence the beat to an artist and they want to change the title, do I register a new composition on bmi with the new title?
If you license a beat to an artist they can name the song whatever they want. If they decide to release your beat without vocals they can not do that or rename the beat.
@@igobyneq thanks for the reply! I mean in terms of bmi - lets say the original is already registered on bmi. what happens when the artist adds vocals and changes the name - what do we do on bmi with the new song?
Have you watched my new video? Check it out I might have answered a few of you mr questions
So to register just sing up as a song writer right ?
I wrote this book to breaking down the process to register your music very easy www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
But to register or join what do you join under if you make beats
ikr but I think u sign up as a writer
You're a writer/composer of the beat. If someone raps or sings over it then they are the author
ohhh okay makes sense but i tried to sign up as a writer but it didnt have it so i signed up a a songwriter i was going to sign up as classical composer. but im like wait im not that lol... can i redo it then?sincee i sign up under the wrong thing
Nobody can answer this ? If I'm with BMI n my producer is with ascap how can I register my song
Yes you can
That’s not correct. When you register a song you MUST register both parties at the same time.
@@IAMEffelle that’s false information. Idk who told you that. As a producer I am entitled to 50% of the song unless I sign away my rights. This means if I make your beat I am a co-writer by default.
Also an FYI you can’t register lyrics only on BMI/ASCAP
I’m not speaking on what negotiated, I’m talking about what’s fair. If your producer isn’t getting publishing on your songs that robbery.
do you have email to contact you? I have questions regarding BMI Registration.
you can find me on instagram @yungneq
www.igobyneq.com providing all services to help artist
NeqTV Vlogs You sign as songwriter for free but for publishing u need to pay $ 150 .
should i register my beats before sending the batch for placements? Or should I blindly trust these artist with my work?
If you’re sending beats for placements to artist you don’t want to register the beats yet.
@@igobyneq Thank you for answering :) Should I then just completely send and trust these people...
D E L A L U Z Z that’s up to you. Some producers build relationships with artist because they know these artist handle paperwork. My producers send me beats because they know when it’s time to drop I make sure the paperwork done right.
@@igobyneq But, if some of this artists use the beat after buy the lease, i gotta register this for get paid, or i need to do this before?
Isn't BMI a publisher company?? When we sign up with them wont they be our publisher company??
No, it's a performing rights organization.
If you still need help registering and releasing your music, i wrote this book to make the process easier www.igobyneq.com/shop/the-hitchhikers-guide-to-releasing-music
so register the instrumental and the song?
