FAQ
A leased beat is a beat that is licensed non-exclusively. This means that the same beat can be licensed to other parties as well. The producer retains copyright ownership of the beat.
In the music business, it means that the owner or producer of the song allows you (or whoever wants the license) some limited rights to use the beat, recordings, sales, radio plays, streaming, and commercial use etc. You will never own the beat, the producer does. The producer let you use the beat, but the producer also can allow more people to use the same beat because the producer is the owner of the beat. You will never own the beat by licensing beats, only if you can get the Exclusive Rights of it.
It means that every sound of the beat (drums, snares, hit hats, instruments, samples, vocals etc…) will all be separated in high-quality WAV audio files also known as stems. This is extremely beneficial because now your audio engineer will have more control over the editing, mixing and master process of the beat for the best sound possible.
No. All purchases made from us are non-exclusive. This means that the producer still owns the rights and we will still be able to license it to other artists.
Yes. Once the beat is purchased, you will receive the untagged files. So the MP3/WAV or the Tracked-out WAV stems will be without the voice tags.
I use samples in some of my beats. Most of them are royalty-free samples. This means that you don’t have to clear them before you use them on your album/mixtape. If you would like to know if a beat contains samples you can contact me anytime at Ineedthatbeat@gmail.com. before you buy it.
You can copyright your lyrics using form PA. Uploading an mp3 of the song is fine in this case, as long as you’re only claiming lyric ownership. However, you cannot copyright a song using a leased beat with copyright form SR unless you own the master recording, which can only be obtained by earning exclusive rights.
