What Is Music Publishing?
Know your song. Know your rights. Know your publishing.
Know your song. Know your rights. Know your publishing.
The song and the recording are not the same thing.
The recording is the master. The song is the composition: melody, lyrics, chords, and the underlying work.
Music publishing is how that composition gets protected, credited, and paid when it is streamed, performed, synced, or used.
Who can own it? Songwriters, composers, and publishers, based on splits and contracts.
Where the money comes from: performance, mechanicals, sync, and other publishing income.
If you write music, you need to know this. It is how you find out if you are collecting everything you are owed.
