Sir Mix A Lot is a real one. I reached out to him on Myspace bacc when it was a popular outlet. He gave me permission to remake his classic record, "Posse On Broadway" . All he wanted to do was hear the finished song 3efore releasing it. He didn't ask for money or who I was.
This why Diddy still owns Biggie publishing to this day. That's why the LOX had to fight for years to get theirs from Diddy. Its the most lucrative long term money in the music business.
One thing that amazes me is that you got all these kids that want to do music but none of them read books about how the music industry works. All You Need To Know About The Music Business by Donald Passman covers all the basic stuff on how you make money in the music business as an artist. This book first came out in 1994 and has like 9 editions over the years. The first story in the book is how the Happy Birthday Song is a 2 million dollar a year business because everytime you hear it in a TV show or movies the publishers gets a check. I bought this book and it immediately made me money because it told me how to license a song to cover it and sell it legally like you see all these TH-cam musicians do. This was back in 2007-2008 when hardly nobody was doing this shit. You can license a song for 9.1 cent a copy from the Harry Fox Agency and now it's multiple services that do it and do your own version and sell it on iTunes and put it on Spotify and everything.
How to become a famous rapper: (In this day & age) 1) Be repetitive, sound as ignorant as possible. 2) Make a stupid dance. 3) Have a simple beat with lots of bass. 4) ??? 5) Profit
You never know when a movie might ask to use your song for its soundtrack and either blow up a song that was once irrelevant or spark new life into a old hit.
PUBLISHING IS A TYPE OF ROYALTY!!!!!!! He is talking about the difference between the immediate master related royalties vs the composer and songwriter royalties you have to go and get yourself through publishing companies or publishing administrators and PROs
Mix A Lot is such a G when it comes to this game. Serious. Look back at his BOX-TALK and Rap City interviews in the early 90s. He BEEN talking like this. "The JR Ewing of Seattle"
You're looking at baby got back as just an ass shaking song. The reason he made that song is because mass media was forcing a certain type of look down our throat in terms of skinny looking women. He made the song for women to embrace their natural curves.
Man I wish I could sign to Sir Mix A Lot.. This dude need to teach a class. I've learned more in 3 mins than of at least the last few years of watching b.s. youtube vids on the record industry..
Love hearing interviews like this. It actually made me sit and listen to him. Young musicians should take advice from men like Mix alot cause im pretty sure he went through hell and back when it came to music industry business.
Ray Vicks 247365 there was 66 shooting victims in Chicago this past weekend. The Bobby schmurdas of this world embolden that type of violent behavior. Stop defending garbage wanna be rappers, please.
I did not mean music was the sole reason for the violent behavior. I mean it solidifies it to an extent. There a multiple reasons for the atmosphere we are seeing in urban communities and yes parenting is definitely one.
Sir Mix-a-Lot is correct in this. Here is an example: The most famous holiday song in the US is "The Christmas Song", originally recorded by Nat King Cole in 1946. The last I heard, before Nat Cole's widow died a few years ago, the Nat Cole estate received about $90,000 a year from that one song, that is only played for about a three week period each year. But Nat Cole did not write the song, Mel Torme and Robert Wells wrote the lyrics and the music. Nat Cole's estate is only paid for his performance of the song. The estates of Mel Torme and Robert Wells is paid for "every" performance and use of the song and lyrics, so if the Nate Cole estate receives $90,000 per year, the Wells and Torme estates received significantly more. Another example is the Motown song catalog, Jobete. When Berry Gordy sold Motown for $61 million, he did not sell Jobete. He sold it later for in excess of $330 million.it is the song catalog that really matters, because it covers any version of the song and music, and all artists who perform it, not to mention usage in TV, movies, commercials, elevators, etc.
Homeboy Chris - You are 100% right. A lot of people don't get it. They think someone else will do it for them and free...then come to find out that its definitely not free.
But you do 100% of the work instead of 50%. And you won't get paid to go learn how to make beats so add that opportunity cost. I think writers and vocal performers should stay that unless they have a passion to learn to produce.
Ill admit I don't necessarily know how a "beat" is created. However I will say when I hear samples of beats they seem quite generic and at that point I am baffled as to why someone pays for beats.
I respect his intelligence and insight. I love that song! It is a permanent item on every playlist I own, even on those old IPods in the junk drawer in the kitchen. I know the lyrics by heart and I sing part of them quite often, every time I see one..."Yeah baby...". It is one of those songs that can last for generations. Thank you my brother.
people who say that mix only had 1 hit song don't know what they are talking about he was a multi time platinum recording artist before baby got back and had several hits before and after
*Subliminal* some of my favorite artist say no, you" can't touch this" then they go broke.... hmmmm, who said you can't touch this, AND went broke.... hmmm. Hip hop trivia
***** In my opinion that wasnt a diss to Hammer at all, Hammer sampled Prince and Rick James so I think Hammer gets publishing and royalties........Hammer wanted to take care of the entire city of Oakland when he got money that was his downfall
When I was trying to "make it" in the mid 80s, I had already figured out that owning the masters and publishing was key. I grew up with the Beatles and Apple Records, and Zeppelin and Swan Song, so I understood that owning the recording AND owning the publishing were key. Too bad I never got the chance to make any money in the industry. :)
@@beac8238 We were actually a good band, above average music. The problem was the singer. If we had a better singer, a better front man, I think we might have created more opportunities for ourselves. Everyone I met and played the tapes for, all said the same thing - get a better singer. Although, I know that would not have guaranteed anything.
That intelect shines quietly. You cant see it like gold and diamonds. Its low key. There is no one jockking for shiny trinkets. There is no ego involved. Do your thing player. Real wealth!
For people wondering. You can go online n get books like Make Music Make Money n Music Business Publishing 101... it behooves you to read them books mayne
Sir Mix-A-Lot learned a lot about the business after the fact and what it did it made himmore mature in the industry because a lot of people really don't know this type of information and then when you have somebody like him that is actually telling you the ins and outs about the industry.9 Stars✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
He look better now than he did back in the 90s. Thats what happens when you own your own songs. You dont have to bust your ass, being out on tour constantly, getting tired and looking old.
I'm from Seattle...... I remember Anthony doing DJ gigs at boys and girls clubs dances in the area. Dick's drive in - posse on Broadway. 7 Rainier - metro bus.
I like how he went the money route with a potential law suit. Instead of suing and shutting the money off for a potential lump sum, he went with the long term guaranteed revenue.
"Everything You'd Better Know About The Record Industry" by Kashif Saleem is an excellent book to read on this topic. A bit dated, but the perspective the book was written from (an actual working musician with first hand knowledge of the game from the artist and executive perspective) makes it invaluable.
I like this interview, he's definitely a smart guy. I wish it was a little more clear what the difference is between getting money from royalty checks and getting money from publishing (I'm guessing that means owning the songwriting credit). Also. I was unclear on what it means that you need to payback the label before you can get future money? I know it was a short clip without time to explain all that, but the music "business" is fascinating.

This is part of a longer interview. Record labels as always give you an advance check when you sign with them. This is to develop you as an artist. You make the music videos, pay for the studio time and etc. You basically do whatever you want to do with it BUT you HAVE to pay them back.
That's why it's important to produce quality music that will be timeless, people like Bob Marley, Michael Jackson, 2pac etc, their estate and producers are eating for life. One name who is eating! Daz Dillinger! He produced most of 2pac and Dr Dres Work, that nigga is cashing in on the lowkey but he stay bummy as hell on purpose!
Daz broke suge took all them niggas publishing even snoop dogs and dre tupac mother sued suge and got tupac unleashed songs but Hasbro the toy company now owns deathrow records catalog and publishing
Wow man! I like when an artist is smart & shares what's in their mind. Very interesting to see another side of famous rappers like that, thank you Mix-A-Lot!!!
Took me only few seconds to like and pay attention to what he is saying, A lot to learn here... Nothing like listen to those who have done something, share where they went wrong and and show how things can improve..
I was impressed when I visited my friend mixalot at his home and saw his recording studio. I knew he wasn't a one hit wonder but about business and getting his paper. PEACE!
I played keys on the Pussycat dolls song "Stick with you". I have a Grammy nomination for that. Also played on Beyonce's "Still In love" from her B-Day Album. I have a Grammy for that. Work your songs. I have my own projects on spotify, Tidal & apple music. I'm working my songs. He is right!!!!!
Great interview this is the best one I have ever heard from you Vlad. It told me about something we all needed to know. Please have more tips from industry people.
And everyone if the new artists especially the hip hop ones in 4 years are broke and in debt..but baby got back Will continue to just keep making money for him
Every time that I hear this brother speak, I have more and more respect for him.
Same here.
Y'all better give this man that respect. He got bars too
I remember Naughty By Nature dissed on the " Its On" track.

Wrong. Biggie sold his publishing to Puff for $60,000 cause he need the money.
Your statement is irrelevant. Doesnt matter how Diddy got it. He has it bottom line.
