    I've can't believe you covered this. Last week I actually went on the ASCAP website to look at joining them and leaving BMI. I didn't do it because I wanted to find out who was better at this point. I'd always been friendly with Alonzo who may or may not be there anymore, but I think I'm making the change. I got new plans and I want to make sure its all done properly in the beginning. I may be ready for the course in a few weeks

    Hey Casey.. I took the 60-Day Record Label course, set up my LLC, and affiliated with BMI as a publisher for 5 years. I havent registered as a writer yet. If I wanted to switch to ASCAP, could I just affiliate with them as a publisher and writer, since I don't have any songs cataloged with them? Or would I still need to wait until the tend of the term? Thanks for the video and all you do for us!

    • @MusicMoneyMakeover
      @MusicMoneyMakeover  7 місяців тому +2

      If you're not affiliated as a writer then that means you a publisher. I have accounts at both as a publisher and as a writer at BMI. If you have no writer account there is no term to worry about.

    • @djRoyalTee

      You could still join ASCAP as a publisher ($50) under a different publishing/DBA. I'm currently looking at that option also.

    Hey there ❤ Music money maker ❤
    I want to know why bmi is not paying me as an independent artist.
    Is it because I haven’t submitted my W 8BEN form?
    I joined bmi since 2021.
    I do respond to some deals from Music Report as well.

    ASCAP is horrible.They should be abolished as should copyright. It's all become a huge mess. They paid me HALF what they normally pay me last year and I've been producing more content than ever. I can't tell you how horribly they have treated me, no career assist at all. I've heard the rumors they pay the top acts first and the rest get the crumbs. I believe that is the case because of the upside down way the money flows in the music industry which is really just powered by money laundering and using music as a tax on business to shake down business. I hate them and I hate the business. I'm a great music maker and that is the ONLY thing that has kept me in this TERRIBLY RUN PREDATORY SYSTEM. I will never forgive any part of this process and it's a disgrace to civilization and a bad joke. Artists should be paid a flat living wage in exchange for contributions to the arts and also holding down a part-time job to help support essential things in society. This stuff should no longer be left up to the private sector to call the shots, they will always look out for themselves only. We need a new economy in general because of AI and the private sector is not handling the transition well.

      We can actually get together and create that kind of structure, as far as some kind of collective that has insurance, emergency income, healthcare, retirement etc. When we need money for a part of the organization we can always create a great series of concerts. Or just have them each year or every two years or whatever. There was a film company called United Artists that was similar. Or at least it was started by artists. But later taken over by the banks because you always need funding. A musician/writer/performer collective can always raise money from the public who loves music and the experience. Something to think about. Very professional structure, no BS and avoid crooked lawyer shenanigans.
