Music full-time is a huge sacrifice & could be an endless burden unless you have your convictions straight. How much is going out + how much is coming in = you get the point.
You also mentioned in a previous video with a guest, the idea of being more profitable by selling your music on your own website, instead of through distributors, which seems like a great compliment to this video.
This is what you do, no matter how small you think you are 110%! I don't know much but I do know if I do all the work myself, I shouldn't really outsource much unless I need too. Hearing it from lawyers and such only concretes the idea. I have technically no, rave scene support as they don't enjoy me speaking up against racism in the music industry, so I have to do everything myself. Being honest in entertainment, is not an easy time, but seems to be worth it in the end.
Bro focus on yourself and build your own castle. Avoid genre based music and make what you like. This industry has too many sharks and calling them out is a waste of time. Leave them to God and do your own thing. Also send me your links as I’d love to listen to your music
I love watching all these videos. Teaches me everything I need to learn to pursue my own music career. Thank you Miss Krystal! I definitely will be having more questions for you personally though regarding my own music brand
I just came across your channel recently, now I have subscribed, I am a rock singer/songwriter from Australia. I am the lead vocalist and Manager of my original band Fuel2Fire. Your channel is great because I am learning more about the business side, thank you.
I just bought the course, and I cannot wait to start. I'm going on vacation for the next two weeks, so I will begin this course while I'm on it. I was reading the course outline, and I must say this course covers everything you need to know for starting a career in music.
Just let this sink in: all those shitty deals that record companies made with new artists back in the 70’s and 80’s would be considered GOLD MINE DEALS today. The record companies ripped artists off everywhere they could, yet those bands STILL managed to become very wealthy with their “cut” of record sales. Touring used to be just a means to promote a record. Bands toured so people would go BUY the record….. it’s mind boggling what has happened. The internet has made a new kind of “star” and killed off the old ones.
❤ this stuff, can’t find the on fire emoji, got my support. Power to you and your team. Keep it legal and fair for all, the music industry needs cleaned up.
🔥 Literally life changing. I'm an artist/producer getting ready to launch my own band and original music. I've been doing so much research on the music biz that I'm going snow-blind. This vid really speaks to what my instinct was telling me to pursue since I also have a professional leadership background in business. Wow, thank you so much for this awesome channel & vid, I'm now glued to your channel. 🤘😎
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Firstly, you are amazing, everything about you! Your mind, mindfulness, passion, intellect, motivation (both for accomplishing so much , and your motivation behind creating your law firm and this youtube channel). Secondly, this marketing strategy totally worked because now I’m going to click that link above and hopefully take your class. I feel like I have great ideas, talent and the passion for it, but like most, lack knowledge and direction. Thank you for your willingness to teach others this valuable information.
You’re a blessing to me I’m an upcoming artist and the information I wanted as a Jamaican I’ve see. A lot of dancehall artists get sucked in and spit out
Thanks for this. I dropped a comment in the last video of yours I watched asking if I needed a record label of my own. This video popped up at the end, so I guess it's a sign. Haha. I'm renewing my courage and gonna throw the rest of my "buy a car" fund into this music thing. Even breaking even will be a win, and I'll have my music out there. Also, I can go back to my original plan of signing fellow AI artists who make good (not 100% AI) music. No recording studio needed, no touring, etc. Cheap business to run. Initial expenses though....UGH! Been below poverty level my whole life. This is me jumping off the bridge hoping to God the line is secure.
I love your channel! The only reason I've been too chicken to put things out is the fact I have had no clue where to start to set up for success and then, of course, how the hell to do taxes as an artist... Daunting.
But once you figure out this bump in the road, then..... you'll be succeeding! Please feel free to reach out if you need help; my assistant's email is hun@DelgadoEntertainmentLaw.com.
I just found your channel and I'll be watching more of your videos, because this aligns exactly with what I'm doing. I joined a small label for a while, released an EP with them, but it didn't seem to benefit me and I decided to not do that again and just go on by myself. I just released another EP myself about a week ago and I'm trying to build an audience on my channel on yt. I'm really hoping for a sync deal, that would be a dream come true, because I'm a typical "invisible" music producer that loves to work alone a lot. But I'll try to do useful collabs and learn more!
I'm lost. I'm producing our second album, just me and my singer. We've let friends, DJ's and and a music lawyer here snippets of what we're doing..... and they're all excited to hear the new album. We're clueless on what to do to get any type of measurable success with our music..... short of hoping to go viral making TikTok shorts and what not. Creating our own label has crossed my mind...... but I wouldn't know where to start or what to do with it.....
I understand why so many artists are a mess after they've signed with a record company... because what they ask you to do, you lose all or most of your dignity and self respect... I knocked back a record contract about 21 years ago because of what it was asking of me... and while I don't have the fame or the money (not that the contract guarantees you that anyway), I'm happily content doing what I'm doing, I can look in the mirror and 100% have my integrity intact... it is what it is, and some people have a price, and some people don't...
I’m not an artist. I am a former major label employee. What I’m interested in is learning where I can fit into the space and make a living providing label services in today’s market. I don’t have the financial resources to back artists and start a label.
This channel and MusicMoneyMakeover channel have convinced me to take the plunge and start a label. Umbrella holding LLC with DBA record label under it. Later I add DBA for publishing, merch, marketing, etc. I've studied this a lot, but I'm still nervous. I WILL end up homeless if I fail at this. No way around it. Of course, I won't blame anyone else for my own failures.
In your course, do you talk about OR show how to "Trademark & Copyright Protection"? I know the importance of doing it, I just don't know how to do it.
I'm sure Monster corporations are about to steamroll me but nobody's doing what I'm doing and what I create will never be taken away from me. I need help. I have four artists and it's in four different languages and I barely speak 1.5 of them. This goes further. Most producers and artists focus on their niche. I want to focus on my niche. Every single one of my niches. My niches are every single niche. I'm a lyricist and anything can go anywhere now with AI I am in control of all of my art. I'm watching my algorithmically designed blues songs go into their respective playlists. One set of lyrics. 12 kinds of blues. I don't think I'll do that again cuz that's boring. I want to write for the Mexican cartels and win a Latin Grammy. That is my artistic goal. My business goal is ...I want to make compelling songs and albums in every niche. And I want a team to do it with me. I want 12 people to create 36,000 songs with me.
I'm making my thousand this year. But I should be teaching 12 people to do this and I should be getting my cut and we should be taking over the world. I am the right person to guide it. Because I have higher ideology. I'm not in this for music. My goals are boring. I want food sovereignty for all indigenous people throughout the world. I want the people who feed us to have all the power. None of those people live in the global north. That's why I write songs about Honduras and Punjabi people. They have a common struggle. Your militarily enforced consumption patterns.
@@partymarty6969 why is it always a guy with 25,000 old synth videos and zero songs that they made? Why is it always people without any creativity laughing like goofballs at people with four artists and a 50 song Spanish playlist when they learn Spanish when they were 28. Why did you put more effort into what jacket you chose than any music you have ever created Marty?

Hey Timothy! Please feel free to reach out to my assistant, hun@DelgadoEntertainmentLaw.com, and she can discuss options for answering your question. Thank you!
I have an idea for video for you to do , a topic I have seen no one cover. Just how do you go about securing the permission to cover some ones song to put on a CD for sale . , how do you know how much royalty you will be paying per copy , and whom do you pay the monies to ? And perhaps there are important things to know which I have not mentioned , Thank you !
Universal Music takes their monitizing of infringement to the point of absurdity and well beyond what they're actually entitled to. They'll try to claim stuff that's public domain.
I have copyrighted half a dozen songs. There are several that have been released on Spotify without copyrighting. Should I copyright them as well or is it enough that they are on the streaming platforms?
As long as it doesn't involve litigation, we can assist! Please feel free to reach out if you're needing advocacy! ClientCare@DelgadoEntertainmentLaw.com
I have 2 personas. One The Celestineproph -instrumental music. The 2nd Kerr Alexander Country music singer/ artist. The latter I have 3 covers out. The first I have about 12 instrumental pieces out. I'm trying to build/ a fan base for the country music. Can one do that with covers or do I / should I start producing original music? The covers I've gotten the copyright/ license through Distrokid. I don't think I'll be generating any money with covers- is that true?
If You're Not Your Own Label Yet, What Are You Even Doing? I'm cooking, cerdo a la cerveza: 1kg de lomo de cerdo 1 Morron Vmarillo 1 Morron Verde 1 Cebolla 1 Cebolla de Verdeo 1 L de cerveza negra stout 1 kg de papa Sal a gusto Pimienta a gusto Una pizca de Oregano Cortamos la verdura en tiritas, el cerdo en rodajas, y las papas en cuadraditos. Tiramos la verdura a sofreir en una olla grande con aceite. Tapamos a fuego bajo y revolvemos cada unos minutos. Luego agregamos el cerdo y lo sellamos de los 2 lados. Cuando el cerdo esté sellado agregamos la papa y la cerveza completa. Condimentamos con la sal, la pimienta y el oregano, revolvemos y tapamos a fuego moderado. Cuando hierva lo bajamos al minimo y lo dejamos hervir durante 1 o 2 horas, hasta que la papa este hecha (tienen que ir verificando si la papa esta hecha). Una vez que la papa este cocida, sacan la tapa y dejan que evapore el liquido a gusto. Pueden servir en plato o hacer sandwitches con el cerdo directamente. Enjoy.
We found 100's of AMPEX 2" Master tapes of R&B artist from the 70's, 80's and 90's along with about 20k LP's in a storage unit from a ex CBS executive. Artist and producers are deceased and no longer avail anywhere even though we sold off LP's quickly with big demand in France. Can we assume copyright and start publishing? Looking for legit legal advice in a comment section.
Hey thanks for reaching out! We cannot give legal advice through the chats. If you'd like to book a consultation, please feel free to send your email and number to my assistant, hun@DelgadoEntertainmentLaw.com. Thank you!
Just offering a comment on my lay opinion on this. Yeah not legal advice just my lay understanding. A mechanical copy is not ownership of the work. Having a mechanical reproduction recording etc.. is just a mechanical - and would be a legal copy IF you legally acquired it, and if that copy was a legal copy. The right to make "new copies" is a copyright of the person who owns the work. Often mechanical rights these days are assigned to PROs etc.. who collect royalties for mechanicals, not all works are assigned though but it is common practice. Its very likely that if the works were signed CBS artists then those materials are probably owned by Sony Records but each song may have its own copyright context. Mechanical Royalties: The author of a song has the right to be paid every time a copy of that song is made (or “mechanically reproduced” A mechanical license grants the right to reproduce and distribute copyrighted musical compositions for a statutory rate.) The specific number of years after someone passes depends on the jurisdiction 70 years is normal. Meaning if they passed in 1980 then they would would be public domain in 2050. Again Definately consider consulting with an entertainment lawyer for actual legal advice BUT without specific infos just as a lay person I would say 100% No, you can't you need to obtain a mechanical license from whoever owns the copyright to the world as mechanical productions are not ownership of that song only that mechanical copy, and if that copy is not legally acquired or licensed then it can be considered a pirated copy. If you found the paperwork with the recordings it may be clearer how they were made. Its very likely that the master's were copies of contracted materials and those contracts themselves may dictate who owns the masters and how they may be used. Its very possible that if you legally aquired those masters you have physical possession of them but you havn't taken over ownership of any reproduction rights - known as mechanical reproduction rights. Any unauthorized copies would still violate copyright unless the works and their mechanical rights passed into the public domain. Oddly where the song was made under what jurisidction and what jurisidiction the copyright is owned in. In the event that the song creator / owner had no heirs then it would pass into estate management often dictated by civil authorities, if there is no hiers to pass an estate on, it might pass over to the jurisidiction if tha tis written into estate law. I have never heard of government exercising copyright control over materials that they have legal control of. So its not really if they are deceased, it is if everyone with inhertence under the local law is deceased since copyright is an inherited property / asset . I could be wrong talk to a lawyer. Also if someone has more knowledge please do correct me. This is my personal opinion as to how that situation would work. It depends on the jurisdictions involved as copyright law is not universal.
Hii! Thank you so much for the info. One quick question, Is it possible to license (sync etc) an instrumental version of a song you've released already somewhere else?
Yeah since she hasn't provided you a reply I thought I would just provide a little info on what I would expect. Again I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice just my interpretation to how it normally works. Depends if you granted exclusive sync rights to that party I would think. If it was a nonexclusive release then you can reassign licensing rights nonexclusively. Not all releases are exclusively assigned. Yeah I think you would need to provide her with specific information about where it was released through what service what the contract terms were ect.. to really answer a question like that. It would be in the contract what assignments there are. The terms of the first release probably have the answer to your question in them.
My goal is to be my own boss and be a entrepreneur and work for myself and make my own money I got a lot of talents I need to put UA-cam videos 😅 Regular jobs are garbage pay minimum wage $20 cutt employees hours and u have managers bossing h around a lot I hate that 😊
I have started releasing all my songs and productions under the same nam, no matter the style/genre, because otherwise everything gets so splintered.I will make musicvideos for some of them aswell. Thank you for a great video.🙏 /Boozledrop
What am I doing? Just got my hair tips frosted. Heading out now to get my padded shoulder Neon yellow suit jacket. I’ve practiced relentlessly on my guitar and can play D,A,and G chords perfectly. Once my killer video comes out and MTV plays it regularly, the record companies are going to be knocking down my door. What’s that?…The 80’s just called and want their list to follow for success back? I’ll call back later. ‘Sup dude?

This method seems like it can apply to other non music businesses & industries also.
I have an idea for video for you to do , a topic I have seen no one cover. Just how do you go about securing the permission to cover some ones song to put on a CD for sale . , how do you know how much royalty you will be paying per copy , and whom do you pay the monies to ? And perhaps there are important things to know which I have not mentioned , Thank you !
I’m an independent artist
Peace Love Cool
Universal Music takes their monitizing of infringement to the point of absurdity and well beyond what they're actually entitled to. They'll try to claim stuff that's public domain.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I have copyrighted half a dozen songs. There are several that have been released on Spotify without copyrighting. Should I copyright them as well or is it enough that they are on the streaming platforms?

I have 2 personas. One The Celestineproph -instrumental music. The 2nd Kerr Alexander Country music singer/ artist. The latter I have 3 covers out. The first I have about 12 instrumental pieces out. I'm trying to build/ a fan base for the country music. Can one do that with covers or do I / should I start producing original music? The covers I've gotten the copyright/ license through Distrokid. I don't think I'll be generating any money with covers- is that true?
@@TheCelestineProph mix the two together.
Solid videos. Highly valuable information. I also am a very hot ( I.e. talented) rap artist and I own my own record label. So this is very interesting
Keep real music underground
If You're Not Your Own Label Yet, What Are You Even Doing?
I'm cooking, cerdo a la cerveza:
1kg de lomo de cerdo
1 Morron Vmarillo
1 Morron Verde
1 Cebolla
1 Cebolla de Verdeo
1 L de cerveza negra stout
1 kg de papa
Sal a gusto
Pimienta a gusto
Una pizca de Oregano
Cortamos la verdura en tiritas, el cerdo en rodajas, y las papas en cuadraditos.
Tiramos la verdura a sofreir en una olla grande con aceite.
Tapamos a fuego bajo y revolvemos cada unos minutos.
Luego agregamos el cerdo y lo sellamos de los 2 lados.
Cuando el cerdo esté sellado agregamos la papa y la cerveza completa.
Condimentamos con la sal, la pimienta y el oregano, revolvemos y tapamos a fuego moderado.
Cuando hierva lo bajamos al minimo y lo dejamos hervir durante 1 o 2 horas, hasta que la papa este hecha (tienen que ir verificando si la papa esta hecha).
Una vez que la papa este cocida, sacan la tapa y dejan que evapore el liquido a gusto.
Pueden servir en plato o hacer sandwitches con el cerdo directamente.
Enjoy.
We found 100's of AMPEX 2" Master tapes of R&B artist from the 70's, 80's and 90's along with about 20k LP's in a storage unit from a ex CBS executive. Artist and producers are deceased and no longer avail anywhere even though we sold off LP's quickly with big demand in France. Can we assume copyright and start publishing? Looking for legit legal advice in a comment section.
Hey thanks for reaching out! We cannot give legal advice through the chats. If you'd like to book a consultation, please feel free to send your email and number to my assistant, hun@DelgadoEntertainmentLaw.com. Thank you!
Just offering a comment on my lay opinion on this. Yeah not legal advice just my lay understanding. A mechanical copy is not ownership of the work. Having a mechanical reproduction recording etc.. is just a mechanical - and would be a legal copy IF you legally acquired it, and if that copy was a legal copy. The right to make "new copies" is a copyright of the person who owns the work. Often mechanical rights these days are assigned to PROs etc.. who collect royalties for mechanicals, not all works are assigned though but it is common practice. Its very likely that if the works were signed CBS artists then those materials are probably owned by Sony Records but each song may have its own copyright context. Mechanical Royalties: The author of a song has the right to be paid every time a copy of that song is made (or “mechanically reproduced” A mechanical license grants the right to reproduce and distribute copyrighted musical compositions for a statutory rate.) The specific number of years after someone passes depends on the jurisdiction 70 years is normal. Meaning if they passed in 1980 then they would would be public domain in 2050. Again Definately consider consulting with an entertainment lawyer for actual legal advice BUT without specific infos just as a lay person I would say 100% No, you can't you need to obtain a mechanical license from whoever owns the copyright to the world as mechanical productions are not ownership of that song only that mechanical copy, and if that copy is not legally acquired or licensed then it can be considered a pirated copy. If you found the paperwork with the recordings it may be clearer how they were made. Its very likely that the master's were copies of contracted materials and those contracts themselves may dictate who owns the masters and how they may be used. Its very possible that if you legally aquired those masters you have physical possession of them but you havn't taken over ownership of any reproduction rights - known as mechanical reproduction rights. Any unauthorized copies would still violate copyright unless the works and their mechanical rights passed into the public domain. Oddly where the song was made under what jurisidction and what jurisidiction the copyright is owned in. In the event that the song creator / owner had no heirs then it would pass into estate management often dictated by civil authorities, if there is no hiers to pass an estate on, it might pass over to the jurisidiction if tha tis written into estate law. I have never heard of government exercising copyright control over materials that they have legal control of. So its not really if they are deceased, it is if everyone with inhertence under the local law is deceased since copyright is an inherited property / asset . I could be wrong talk to a lawyer. Also if someone has more knowledge please do correct me. This is my personal opinion as to how that situation would work. It depends on the jurisdictions involved as copyright law is not universal.
@@TopMusicAttorney Haha joking about the legal advice. Sent a email.
@@WilliamAshleyOnline Thanks.
do u have discord server?
Thanks for making UToob vids covering all the legal stuff that most of us are klooless about.
I came up with the idea and people stole it like you and everything else I’ve done in life

Hii! Thank you so much for the info. One quick question, Is it possible to license (sync etc) an instrumental version of a song you've released already somewhere else?
Yeah since she hasn't provided you a reply I thought I would just provide a little info on what I would expect. Again I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice just my interpretation to how it normally works. Depends if you granted exclusive sync rights to that party I would think. If it was a nonexclusive release then you can reassign licensing rights nonexclusively. Not all releases are exclusively assigned. Yeah I think you would need to provide her with specific information about where it was released through what service what the contract terms were ect.. to really answer a question like that. It would be in the contract what assignments there are. The terms of the first release probably have the answer to your question in them.
Yeah, depends on the contract you had with the label you first signed for. Read it (probably in some
unnecessary long sentences)....

What am I doing? Just got my hair tips frosted. Heading out now to get my padded shoulder Neon yellow suit jacket. I’ve practiced relentlessly on my guitar and can play D,A,and G chords perfectly. Once my killer video comes out and MTV plays it regularly, the record companies are going to be knocking down my door.
What’s that?…The 80’s just called and want their list to follow for success back?
I’ll call back later. ‘Sup dude?
