ALBUM SALES DECREASING

It’s getting harder and harder for musicians to make money off of their albums sales

They need to find other avenues to make a living off of their art.

STAYING TRUE TO YOURSELF

This is a great way to make money and still stay true to your artistic values considering that you will be using songs from your music that you’ve already created.


EVERYONE BENEFITS

The artists, tv and film makers, and anyone else using a licensing deal all benefit from it.

It increases the quality of the art when filmmakers can use the song that they feel matches their film.

SMART OR SELLOUTS?

Artists that release their music for TV and movies are not sellouts. Licensing is a smart way to generate income that will allow the artist to keep creating music.


INDUSTRY CAN BENEFIT

While the Music Industry as a whole is in decline, Music Publishing can be a way for an artist to increase their income and continue to create music. It should not be viewed as selling out but should be seen as a way for different artist mediums to share their art and create something great.


LOOK INTO IT YOURSELF

Do research on your own on this subject and see how it can make you a more successful artist. It can increase your income and visibility in the Industry and can even grant you more fans.
