Inside the Playbook: Jacob Paul on Music Publishing 101

You can have songs moving on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, TikTok, live shows, even vinyl and still miss the money that literally belongs to you on the songwriting side.

In this clip, Jacob breaks down Music Publishing 101 in plain English: every release has two copyrights and two royalty streams, the master recording (typically flowing through a label or distributor) and the publishing/composition (songwriting) side. Here’s the catch: publishing royalties aren’t automatic payouts. If your song registrations, splits, and metadata aren’t set up correctly, the system doesn’t warn you, you just stay unpaid.

We also clear up a major misconception in the music business: signing up with a performing rights organization (ASCAP, BMI, etc.) is a great first step, but it’s not the whole publishing picture, especially when it comes to mechanical royalties and global/international royalty collection. If you’re an independent artist, producer, songwriter, or manager trying to build real systems behind the growth, this is the clip you send your team.

Simply put, a conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
