The company suggests listing Yo Gotti as 100% owner of the composition rights, while the submitter of the remix is told to notate 0% for themselves. Default rights to the song are often given to the creator or author of a song. These names are normally listed under lyricist or composer.Įquity notes that the artist will receive the royalties that are generated from their version of the song, and that Yo Gotti is simply the composition owner and is “taking no fee.” However, let’s take a look into how composition owners are paid in royalties vs. There are two types of copyrights: recording and compositional (or publishing). Now we will learn about the six types of royalty payouts: We’ve already mentioned Equity retains ownership of the recording copyrights (C&P) and now we’ve discovered Yo Gotti retains ownership of the composition. Owners of the Recording Copyrights can generate master recording royalties and digital performance royalties.
Master Recording royalties are achieved any time a song is downloaded, streamed, or physically purchased.ĭigital Performance royalties are earned when the song is played on non-interactive streaming platforms like SiriusXM, Pandora, or similar. Your distributor or label usually collects your master recording royalties and disperses them to the proper owners. In this case, Equity is listed as the owner. Your Digital Performance royalties are collected and dispersed by nonprofit collective rights organization, SoundExchange.
The owner of the compositional rights, in this case, Yo Gotti, can collect revenue from the remaining four royalty types: performance royalties (when the song is played on the radio or in a public setting), mechanical royalties, print royalties, and micro-sync royalties (when a song is used on Instagram, TikTok, and synced in Youtube videos).

If the song is used in an ad or TV show, the compositional rights owner can also receive “sync” royalties.
