does anyone know if distrokid count as publisher?
Hello bro
I am from India
I need to to know can i join BMI. or Not Because I am Not American Citizen What I Do, Please Tell Me
What about the actual song?
Thank you! So helpful!
If I do not have a publisher right now, will I be able to add one later?
i submitted names of songs that i wrote and they were rejected. im trying to add them in again and it wont let me. why is this happening?
I have a question about step 2 and 3. How I can properly combine the interaction between Distrokid and BMI? I mean if I want to use both services, I register my tracks on BMI and set 200% since i’m an independent artist and i dont have any deals and contracts with any label. But at the same time I want to use Distrokid service just as a distributor, not as a label. So legally i’m still an independent artist but Distrokid creates pages on other digital platforms like Spotify etc. So legally Distrokid may act (???) as a publisher. Do i need to correct percentage amount on ownership in step 3 or not? Could you please explain me that moment, cause BMI FAQ has not discovered it completely?
What do you mean by “samples”?
Do you need to do this if you sign up for a publishing admin like songtrust or do they register the song with BMI etc.?
Cool
Ive done this how do i add a wav or mp3 of the song?
Life Saver 💯
How do I delete my works off BMI?
I got a question, what if you didn’t produce the song how would I go about adding the person who produced it?
Hi! I have a band. I wanna join bmi. Do i sign as a songwriter?
Question…As a hip hop producer I use my samples from Splice and their fine print states that there samples are royalty free. That being said, I can select yes and be okay?
If I don’t live in the US… But my country is one of BMI’s affiliates… Will I still receive my royalties?
This is very helpful but you can’t just say don’t use samples when a lot of people do. What do you suggest if you are using samples?
Hows this work if you want to build a record label from the crash and you want to sign artist to BMI
Thank you!…..1~Luv
what if I purchased beat online & they receive a 50% publishing rights
What is a CD identifier
also, my album is almost finished and i want to upload music but not sure how to do that, as well.
Thanks
I submitted a song to BMI which I co-wrote with my daughter. I entered her married name but she goes by her maiden name for social security number purposes. How can I edit her name on her file?
MY QUESTION IS WHAT ABOUT IF I ONLY COMPOSED THE LYRICS OF A SONG IS IT MUSIC ONLY OR MUSIC AND LYRICS.THAN YOU
Now how to copyright a song
So does BMI get a cut of the publishing then? You said they “capture” the publishing. So is the song then captive to BMI as far as the other 100% of the publishing royalties? And if so shouldn’t we create our own publishing LLC before anything?
We have songs released on all digital platforms. But we also have a few music videos of these songs posted on YouTube as well. Should we register music videos on BMI as well? Or does one song registration with BMI cover for that song’s music video as well?
what if my song has explicit lyrics? how do i mark it as explicit
Thanks Ryan! 🙂 Definitely helpful as I begin putting my music on BMI. The Publishing vs Writing thing is definitely confusing for newbies (me) haha
Guys check out Amm Cdot he’s a young talented up and coming artist out of Chicago
But you didn’t put any audio of the song…so how can they listen the song..please feedback
Thank you! Very informative!!
🚨🚨🚨🚨. Do you upload your music audio to BMI? I don’t see the option!!!! how will they know how to find your song without the audio ? I’m confused . Just making sure I’m getting my royalties!!
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
Can some one tell me what the bmi contract really is in the best break down possible I dont want to sign something I dont really understand
if i am registering a year after a songs release, will i recoup the royalties i missed out on?
Do I register each song individually or the album. How do they know the song names of the album? So confusing.
How do you share or split song credit with the person who made the instrumental of the song?
What should i do when it says ( no application available ) ??????
What if the release is a collab split 50/50, they have a publisher and I don’t on point #3?
can a 16 years old join bmi
thank you.. very thorough and helpful
Thanks!! Great information you made very simple. I appreciate it.
How do I register songs written and performed by a deceased relative?
WHAT IF YOU JUST COMPOSED THE LYRICS>>
If I wrote a song on a beat I found can I still post it on BMI?
I have a question: I see a lot of music been played on YouTube. Whole CD’s and everything by many John Does out there. How is this possible? Should they been taken down by YouTube and the people doing this prosecuted for copyright infringement?
im a producer who has credit on a few songs released by a major label, would i say the major label is the publisher or do i click no since i am not under any deal?
Thank you for your video. Can I register songs with BMI that I wrote using some GarageBand Loops?
