Nah it wasn’t that. She didn’t own any of her songs. The label company owned it. She just got a small portion of it. Now that she did everything by herself she keeps it all. And she sticks it to the label company cuz it out preformed her first ones. Every artist that blew up did this. Even snoop did it
@@Itsjjitch yeah I knew the whole story I just feel some artists get slapped in the face and realize how much they actually make, but good for Taylor stepping up
@@Itsjjitch You said "Nah that isn't it" just to explain that yes, that was the exact reason. She recorded her versions so she'd make more money. Why are you yapping?
not even a bbno$ fan because im not into that kind of music but i do gotta love how he didn't specify how much HE made but gave an answer that can let you kind of speculate while also giving you info about the industry as a whole. he seems like a humble guy.
@@JustBeelohe used it as a benchmark to show that would be the baseline if you did all the work yourself and only you. Then start subtracting from that based on what you'd be spending on things like studio time, outsourcing producers, finding publishers, or even just promotion material.
The key words here are IF YOU OWN 100% OF YOUR MASTERS AND 100% OF YOUR PUNISHING. This is not the case 99% of the time to due to labels and the big 3 publishers, UMG, WMG, and Sony.
He didn't fully dodge the question. He gave the numbers what would happen if you owned all the rights and were very successful. Most likely he's making half, or less, but that's still good money
Old town road by lil nas X must of made so much money considering it dethroned Mariah Carey all I want for Christmas for consecutive weeks when it was released
INCORRECT, Mariah All I Want For Christmas is only no.1 for the first time in Dec 2019. Old Town Road hit no.1 in Apr 2019. So OTR get 19 weeks no.1 before AIWFC even hit no.1 ever. But Mariah already made so much money for 2 decades even the Christmas song didnt hit no.1 earlier
He did something that made it so he doesn't have copyright and people can react and make money off his disttracks for extra media attention. It will cost him some money he still gonna make bank but a bit less on youtube
Keep in mind, that’s only if you own 100% of masters, and publishing. Most artist in the industry today are lucky to see a QUARTER of what they actually make doing shows, tours, etc.
You must be very unintelligent and gullible to believe what he said LOL ! No artists own 100% of anything first of all, they are lucky to make 2% of all that money, labels get all of it…
^^^ what they said. Not everyone can afford or even wants streaming services or apps of any kind. But radio is everywhere. It most like will never die out unless a cheaper and more reliable form is made public. For example: satellite was said to replace radio but can not due to unreliability under weather circumstances. Even coaxial cable is still better then satellite dish television.
I’ve heard that radios like SiriusXM pay at least 25$ for every time they play your song on a radio. If you get several hundred plays then boom, you cash out quite handsomely. The most money is made from selling the records and streaming revenue, but touring tops them all in most cases.
@@engma5151Nahh he’s out to Top Dawg and now has his own label pgLang. It’s why he was able to release the copyright on NLU for reaction channels to eat off of it and for RU-vidrs to parody it.
@@imAcubens i was just joking lol, but nah he still making a ton off of it from streams and listens. and making it free use just makes more people listen to it and get exposed to it tbh
this is taking into account that you own 100% of everything, which usually in order to acquire the connections, A&R, publishing deals, playlist placements, and everything else, you’re giving a % away to said companies, or paying these services out of pocket to maintain ownership which is hard as an independent artist
A society in which success is rewarded in so over the top levels whilst not being successful means you have to live on the street. Man I dunno if I'm okay with either of those options
The Back-to-Back 1993-94 Blockbuster Video Game Champion, he has a powerful 6-foot-8 frame, a 37-inch vertical leap, and a wavy, gleaming mullet like black diamonds.
Plus he explicitly mentioned if you owned 100% of the rights, distribution and advertising. Almost nobody has that. Only a select few do and he ant one.
@@ItzarzkyI guess the fact they can make 2M a month from down bad men 😭 and artist slave away to make songs, go on interviews, go on tours, shoot music videos, etc and barely see 2M for all that (all depends on their popularity, like Kendrick most likely made 2M in a month from Not Like Us). But yeah there isn’t any other correlation but money so it was kinda random to bring that up.
I wish I got payed at least 80k a year for breaking my back to help this country keep running. I've painted houses built decks, layed stone for walkways, I worked at a dc helping deliver groceries to supermarkets to keep people alive. And the most I've ever made was 40k a year. It angers me how much the entertainment industry makes when we're the ones making sure they have what they need to even survive.
Most of what an artist makes is from tours, any artist will tell you that they see their most money while touring, they get meh pay from their actual songs because the label can just go “yeah we own 70% of that….”.
Not many other countries, or as profitable as being number one in the United States. People really forget how much money the United States really is worth European companies. Cannot operate without America helping them like Airbus the European arrow they produce a lot of their European airplanes in America, same thing for a lot of companies actually. The issue is the production of other things have been expedited outside of the United States, so there’s not the same influence and wealth in other industries, like they used to be, but the entertainment industry is still very strong in the United States. It’s all about the industry
@@Hellothis12157knbhbThe difference not adding up is simply because the #1 US song is in every corner of the world already. The rest of the world except Spanish and Korean songs don't export well. For example India has a massive pop scene but the songs stay within India, same with France's rap scene (pretty sure it's the second largest market after the US). Yet in both of those countries the radio stations air the #1-25 biggest US songs, songs are used in movies and ads, played in clubs/bars, etc. so the rights holders in the US actually sell.
@@charlesm.2604 yes because the US is the main holder of the entertainment industry 8 out of 10 of the biggest entertainment companies in the world are in the US the other 2 are Asian ones Chinese others is Japanese. the main reason you make more for number one in the US is because like you said the top 25 songs in the us are played worldwide already most big movies come from the states the only out lire when it comes to a big platform and that's gaming 4-top 5 are Asian while the other 1is American and well that's Microsoft lol steam isn't competing with them.
@@Hellothis12157knbhb Yep that's pretty much how it work. Or at least I would assume that's what makes sense. But I don't think videogames are the main drive behind it though because studios make their own game OST. Like you're not getting Taylor Swift, Charlie Puth and Ed Sheeran blasting in your headphones when you step on a koopa head or when you ult in street fighter lol
Start creating even if you have never created. Don’t listen to negative people stay positive and put out content. Don’t talk about it just do it peeps. I’m sending you all positive vibes and even if your friends don’t like it it’s better put it out anyway❤️💪🏽🍷
The thing is, most artists have a record label or some publishers so they don’t own 100% of the money it gets, so it’s really hard to own fully 100% of all of your music
My first song I got introduced to him was from Smii7y in that one golf video where he went “Ooooh Tony Hawk, She tryna pull vert on my half pipe F*ck” which led me to Shazam that section and led me climbing up the bbno$ mountain of content. So I called my bbno$ playlist Mt.no$.
