What are the 4 Pillars of Collecting All the Royalties Due You?

If you're an active recording artist and/or music professional, it is important to be aware of all the possible sources from which you can collect royalties from the music you release.⁠

Below we have outlined four essential pillars of monetizing your music career appropriately.⁠

If you're not affiliated with a service provider in any of these 4 categories, please do so as soon as you can to ensure you maximize your potential to collect ALL royalties due you.



These four pillars are : ⁠

1) Performance Rights Organization - Assists with collection of performance royalties from the licensed use of your music in which you are a songwriter and/or publisher.⁠

2) Publishing Administrator - Collects and dispenses your music publishing royalties on a global basis. The publishing administrator monitors and registers your works with performance rights societies across the world⁠

3) Digital Distributor - Distributes your music releases to worldwide streaming and music retail platforms. Pays out your mechanical royalties.⁠

4) SoundExchange - Pays out digital performance royalties as a performer on a master recording. ⁠
