I'm keeping my publishing I own my own record lable smartest decision of my life gift that never stop giving this is facts I just moved into my first house. God is good
Publishing is where the real money is at. The money you make as a writer. Can surpass. Greatly surpass the money you can make off the sale of your music
I Got 5 On It sampled Top Billing..."Got It Good" Yo-Yo sampled Top Billing in Mackstress. Milk got a % of those royalties. Music publisher owns the performance rights to the lyrics and music. Which is the copyright to the lyrics and music of a song. Normally, the record label owns the copyright to the sound recording of the music. Which is commonly known as the "masters" or "master recording." If someone samples the sound recording of the song, that person must pay the record label (the owner of the sound recording) for its use. They must also pay the music publisher (the owner of the lyrics and music of the song). The publisher will pay the songwriter and composer of the song. If someone samples the lyrics and music by replaying the music and reciting the lyrics, they do not have to pay the record label. But they will need to pay the music publisher (the owner of the lyrics and music of the song). In both cases, the songwriters and composers will get a share of writer credits for the new song that is using their lyrics and music. Their percentage can be whatever they want. Example: Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz song, De Ja Vu (Uptown Baby) contained a sample. The sample owner got 100% of the writer/publishing of that song. Same stuff happened with Verve's bittersweet symphony. Rolling Stones owns that new song. Because Verve used their sample. When you own the publishing to a song, you will always get paid when someone uses your song. You can be unfair like the rolling stones, etc, and demand all the royalties for the new song, even if they sampled 1% of your song. You can be fair and demand a reasonable %. If they don't like it, they can always remove the sample and not use it for their new song. If you sign over your publishing like George Clinton, you miss out on all those royalties. Dr. Dre, Erick Sermon, and an enormous amount of hip hop producers have sampled Parliment and Funkadelic. Since George Clinton doesnt own his publishing, he missed out on all those royalty opportunities.
Publishing and copywright are two different things. You don't need to own a company to add a copywright to a product and owning a company is no guarantee that your product cannot be stolen.
Sir mix alot said the same thing about Baby got back. He said his mission wasn't to be a life long rapper. All he said that he needed just one song to stick because he owns every song he's put out. Mix said it himself that Baby Got Back earned him over 100 mil in royalties since the 90s and he's still getting paid.
Yes but but but how do you get your song into tvshows and films. You have to pay someone to pitch it. Thats what a publishing company does right? To own your own publishing is like starting a publishing company. Its seems like a lot of hard and difficult work to start pitching your song without any network.
Yes you can, I’m actually on that path and coming across this video for a second time (more than ten years ago from today) it’s a big confirmation to what I’m aiming for. If you have good songs you want to aim for music supervisors
So why may I ask is Kanye West say he has debt.. don't his songs get sampled? What kind of publishing deal does Kanye have? Not a good one or? I'm intrigued.
He spends way more than his records can provide. Dude spends mindlessly on 50 million dollar deals. Power is his most used song on the market currently. Also being in debt doesn't mean you're broke, it means you have money but its gonna take you a while to pay back.
The creation of the song deals with copyright or basically ownership. Publishing is a different subject and that all depends how you want to split that up.
Xoxxo Bob, thanks. So, the royalty rate is 9.10 cents per radio spin. If I split the publishing for the lyrics that I wrote 3 ways, is that 9.10 cents divided up 3 ways or do we each get 9.10 cents per radio spin?
Well Elton John has a similar setup where he writes the music & someone else (Tim Rice, Bernie Taupin, or whoever) adds the lyrics.. I could be mistaken but I presume they split it 50/50.. U & ur producer can decide how u split that..
It must indeed be crazy for lawyers who are fighting for one "side" in one instance, and another side in another scenario.. 😅 Seeing it from both sides of the table too, there's no one-size-fits-all with publishing; some may benefit more from keeping it & others may benefit more from giving it up in exchange for an advance, them being employed as a songwriter and/or the songs being worked for them.. ✍🏾 - @Acharich
The interviewer forgot to ask, How many royalty checks are you making from other artists work who he did NOT publish/or give credit to through two of the most corrupt agencies in history ASCAP AND BMI???? guess we'll never know.. RIP

First house off music money..?
Peace I'm diverse songwriter and have a label
Are you producer
Publishing is where the real money is at. The money you make as a writer. Can surpass. Greatly surpass the money you can make off the sale of your music
Potentially.. 🙏🏾
How do you go about owning 100% of your publishing? What are the steps?
@@sereroserera367
Simply negotiating.
Rest in power. You brought a voice to the guys I grew up on. Thank you reggie. Combat jack forever.
Dang..

Diane V very helpful, Thank you!
But Clinton would have still got the songwriter share right..?
My queen I need you on my team Damn 💯
Good info
Combat Jack was the man. He knows what I know thus, the video speaks for itself 💯.
RIP Combat Jack
What happened..? 💭
Big respect to Amarudontv

Great success takes hard work. Don't let other get millions off your labor because you were too lazy to put in the full effort.
That's the trade-off.. Many times, it's time vs money.. 💰⏰
Iusedtohavemojo just pay trusted people that know what they’re doing and have a lawyer audit annually (eventually quarterly)
😘 sexy guy
🤩 sexy 🫦
can an artist give out the license to their own music? I need a license for doing a choreo video
Yes you can, I’m actually on that path and coming across this video for a second time (more than ten years ago from today) it’s a big confirmation to what I’m aiming for. If you have good songs you want to aim for music supervisors

Titomi Sokoya Most of Kanye West hits are samples actually. So it's more like he's paying money to sample other people's material.
he samples in most of his songs and normally its 3 songs he samples he has to pay them that definitely cuts out his money
Kanye West may be locked into a 360° Deal, which is making the artist a superslave to the label.
Because each artist is different...some make bad choices and others do not.
great video.
But don't you have to have a deal with a publishing company as well?
So how do you actually keep your own publushing?
No you can incorporate your own publishing company and deal with BMI or ASCAP...of course it takes a few hundred dollars to do that.
Xoxxo Bob
Yep, and that's exactly what I'm about to do with my music production co.
AUDIOPLUGG cool! Do you have any of your material on TH-cam?
Essentially, u already have it unless / until u enter a publishing deal..
So if I write 100% of the lyrics, and the producer creates 100% of the music, how much publishing do we each have?
The creation of the song deals with copyright or basically ownership. Publishing is a different subject and that all depends how you want to split that up.
Xoxxo Bob, thanks. So, the royalty rate is 9.10 cents per radio spin. If I split the publishing for the lyrics that I wrote 3 ways, is that 9.10 cents divided up 3 ways or do we each get 9.10 cents per radio spin?
Once combine into a song containing your lyrics and his music it becomes one copyright 100% total then it's split 50% to you and 50% to him
