I was taken advantage of in 2013 when I created a music channel with a mobile music app company, that gain over 700,000 plays in the first week. I was an intern at the time but was never given full credit on the project but received college credits. One thing I learned, never put all of your creative ideals out in the open when working with CEO's or anyone, unless they compensate you fairly with everything in writing. They took advantage because they knew I would work harder than the next. Don't let your hard work over exceed your judgement, get everything in writing.... EVERYTHING!!!
Been there before, lost millions, played on many big hits, didn't even get credit. But, when I left the company, I took my sound and experience with me and the company crashed LOL. Today, you have to sign a NDA, a non-disclosure agreement period.
The bank loan analogy isn't a good analogy at all. When the bank loans you money, they don't market, promote, distribute or manage your product or business in any way. They simply loan the money and have no involvement in the business. A record company (at least traditionally) does all of those things, in the hopes of creating a hugely successful product and brand. I'm not commenting on whether they're fair about it or whether someone should or shouldn't sign a record deal - I'm just saying that a bank loan shouldn't be compared to a record deal. They're completely different concepts.
It's similar to the fact that this isn't your money. Even though they are doing things for you, they are doing it so that they can recoup their money. When you hear these guys have a massive deal, the company advanced them the money. They don't have that cash. I think that is what they are referring to. He's right to demonize them because after all of that work - you don't the masters. So basically they are renting you out and in the end, you don't have a home when you were the one who made the music.
This is a great video. Bottom line, You You have to be smart in this business. Learn as much as you can first before anything. If not, the snakes and vultures are going to eat you alive leaving absolutely nothing but the bones. Awareness is 🔑... Thanks for your knowledge and advice King👑
You are spitting the truth brotha! I survived the old business model and eventually got my publishing and all but one of my masters back (I should have that one soon too). I totally agree with you on things like admin deals etc.. There are advantages to working with companies who are already well versed in collecting from all revenue sources, but the key is you must control it and understand how to leverage it. Keep up that good game!! Mix
Great video as usual. Consider doing an video on TLC and their new album regarding if Left Eye family should receive royalties on the new music especially if she is not on every record. Thanks.
The best thing you said is that its about knowing what to ask for. Do an hour long video on what a musician wants, what an artist wants, a producer, a band, a label etc
That is very true but only if she owns the publishing or rights to any songs she wrote, which she does to some but not all. She would have to get permission form all the other writers and publishers to redo all of them.
I'm amused listening to creative advice from guys who made the bulk of their fame and fortune on plagiarizing the original works of others. However, business wise I can respect and learn from how they prosper and flourish from their marketing strategy selling and promoting themselves, their brand, and their music...
I enjoyed the video great work! Could you shine some insight on this question… When you create a great EP “demo” and don’t have the budget, connections, or marketing experience to get your music out?? That frustration in my humble opinion is the route to “bad record deals” as a creator you just want to be heard… thanks for the insight 🙏🏽 God bless
Pharrell once tried to walk me through a song already written to discredit me for another artist's song theft. This blog is fine, but Williams is a little creep. There is a lot of bootlicking to evil to stay in the closed world near the top.
Great videos. Glad you are around. Lot of this is the same for any business. Someone can know food like the sh!t, but if yoiu don't know business and whatch your numbers, cash flow and ROI then you got no bussiness having a restaurant.
Nice info! Another royalty that follows the master is the mechanical royalty. This royalty is for vinyl records, CD's, DVD's and downloads. The performance royalties are also for radio and streaming. After this, you have to come with the fire basically. When you got the fire, people will talk about you and want your services.
God's work bro. Thanks for the helping hand. I'm not here to fuck around and waste time. Edit: Thank you for the elucidation upon record labels vs. Banks. I consider myself pretty resourceful and wise, but apparently I've just been talking out my neck about the industry this whole time. It's good to be humbled. Lessgo
I hope you don't mind, but I told people to follow you on my Instagram page. I told them if they need a great resource about music to subscribe to your RUclips channel.😊
I love this content man ❤️. Love the 411. I have been producing and managing all of my work since I was 18. Now I am 31. I own all of my masters and still figuring out all of this shit out on my own but this video has given me the reassurance that I am in the right path as an independent artist, producer and record label. I also think that when it comes to being successful as a creative individually spirituality is also very important because we all need peace of mind in order to create and keep creating, is highly important to feel in tune whit your inner self first and have an organized mind and coherence on what you want in your life and were you wanna go and when you are prepared you can make better decisions and from there decide when, were and with who you want to work with on the short term or long term. As a visionary I think that's what all this is about.
"the harvest is ready but the laborers are few" was talking about preaching the gospel not work ethic lol He was ready to spread the news that God had come to earth to redeem souls to take to heaven. Pharrell took that waay out of context.
Pharrell has talent, but there was an issue with strong “similarities” between a song he allegedly produced, britney spears “sugarfall”, and an artist/producer named Peven Everett. Hopefully it got worked out legally. Not denying his talent, but between the “blurred lines” fiasco and other issues, you have to protect your intellectual property from vultures…
@Anne Day You mean the fiasco where they admitted (in an interview) to using the original song or the part where they lost the lawsuit? These fiascos add up to a lack of integrity...
@Anne Day I was referring to the case where they lost and had to pay the Gaye estate millions (which was subsequently upheld), and, where Pharrell admitted he reverse engineered that particular song in a rolling stone interview. Thicke echoed the same in a prior interview. Were you referring to that?
The most important thing Pharell said is that he gives all the credit and thanks to God Almighty/Jesus. We exalt him, not ourselves. Glory be to God forever...SBN RESONATE
God doesn’t bless us to make music for the devil. He blessed us to make music for him, if we ain’t making music for the kingdom of God, it’s the devils blessing
This video is gold! Pharrell dropping truth bombs as always. 💯 When he said, "Don't not make the music," it hit different. Your style might evolve, but the music must keep flowing. Great breakdown of the key facts, and you nailed it with that quote!

Thanks a bunch! That is exactly why I have not signed or sought a contract deal yet. A company(s) that I dealt with 20 plus years ago went out of business and or the previous audio art was agreed upon and all parties parted ways satisfied. My biggest take aways following this video are, know your ish, who you are and what your responsibility is as a creator from a business standpoint and a creators craft art and works, positions, collections, & what's best to obtain maximum benefits, royalty rights, protected assets per work for artist(s) works, compositions etc. I get it now and as I grow daily.
I knew Pharrell was smart and very talented, but damn! Pure genius who cares about dreamers. He's a good human. I like him even more after seeing this.
Love your content. Been looking for a source like this to explain the ins and outs of the business. I am not a musician, but am an aspiring creator and am always open to getting guidance from those more seasoned...Merciii🌟
@Anne Day You have no real choice if you want to work with a major label unless you are doing great on your own. Artists don’t always have the resources to do it all by themselves. You shouldn’t have to give away your masters while the record label make money off of you. Everyone knows that. Your statement is extremely harsh like aTrump Supporter level. It sounds like you aren’t an artist at all.
@Anne Day a ‘choice’ without a viable option for you us not a real choice. That wasn’t an ad hominem statement. Your remarks are extremely harsh and lack compassion which is a characteristic of a Trump Supporter. I wasn’t wrong either by the way you left the conversation.
very good video man, i could of watch that video myself but love how you broke some topics down or emphasised them, anyway also well done to you for being consistend and adding value to people. remembered watching you when you only had about 200 views now you got 14k . so big up you
You are well knowledgeable and helpful brother. I consider you a professor of business,music most of all life. We do appreciate you. You’ve help me to understand making a decision on this new venture in my life.
A bank needs collateral to insure they get paid back. A recording company makes an "investment" (like any venture capitalist would) into an artist (the product) and takes 50% of your "creation" as that collateral. They put up money and essentially gamble on your success. Many an artists have pissed that investment off by getting arrested, committing crimes or suicide. And now the recording company will have a hard time recouping their "investment". This is not hard to understand. When someone makes an investment (not the same as a loan) they are wanting a piece of the action. Your buddy wants to start a pizza biz, and he wants you to loan him $10k, what is the first thing that comes to mind for you - YOU want a piece of the action - you want 10% or 25% or 50% of the business for putting up the money (the investment) and taking the risk of losing it all. A record company makes an investment on hundreds of artists and loses money on most.

I found out if Anita Baker re-record all of her music she will then have her masters. How factual is that?
That is very true but only if she owns the publishing or rights to any songs she wrote, which she does to some but not all. She would have to get permission form all the other writers and publishers to redo all of them.

Steve Stoute always sees the game from an intelligent perspective and that’s what I appreciate about him the most
#6 .....Owning your creations is a statement that has been preached for almost half a century. It's goes in one ear and out the other.
@Anne Day I don't think you always get the chance to own the masters.
@Anne Day You have no real choice if you want to work with a major label unless you are doing great on your own. Artists don’t always have the resources to do it all by themselves. You shouldn’t have to give away your masters while the record label make money off of you. Everyone knows that. Your statement is extremely harsh like aTrump Supporter level. It sounds like you aren’t an artist at all.
@Anne Day I can with intelligent people. Leaving with an insult is not a characteristic of one.
@Anne Day a ‘choice’ without a viable option for you us not a real choice. That wasn’t an ad hominem statement. Your remarks are extremely harsh and lack compassion which is a characteristic of a Trump Supporter. I wasn’t wrong either by the way you left the conversation.
The point is not their ‘choice’ - the point is that giving away their masters shouldn’t be on the table in the first place.

You are well knowledgeable and helpful brother. I consider you a professor of business,music most of all life. We do appreciate you. You’ve help me to understand making a decision on this new venture in my life.
A bank needs collateral to insure they get paid back.
A recording company makes an "investment" (like any venture capitalist would) into an artist (the product) and takes 50% of your "creation" as that collateral. They put up money and essentially gamble on your success. Many an artists have pissed that investment off by getting arrested, committing crimes or suicide. And now the recording company will have a hard time recouping their "investment".
This is not hard to understand.
When someone makes an investment (not the same as a loan) they are wanting a piece of the action. Your buddy wants to start a pizza biz, and he wants you to loan him $10k, what is the first thing that comes to mind for you - YOU want a piece of the action - you want 10% or 25% or 50% of the business for putting up the money (the investment) and taking the risk of losing it all.
A record company makes an investment on hundreds of artists and loses money on most.
