How to Learn what Music Publishers are looking for in Artists - Sam Taylor - VP A&R Kobalt - MUBUTV

[@stevierico5934]

A lot of singer songwriter musicians use the right hand side of their brain which makes them creative. The business side of music requires the left hand side of the brain. Many musicians have dyslexia which adds to this problem and they struggle to market their brand online. This is why they need the help and expertise of a label and publisher. I like your videos they are very informative. Well done keep up the good work.

How exactly do you 'make noise' as a non performing songwriter?

[@MUBUTV]

Hello Emma, and thanks so much for your comment. Well if you are just songwriting and looking to get cuts on records or music placed into film & TV, I think the objective for you would be to network and collaborate with as many other artists & writers as possible. Look into your local area and look for maybe songwriting organizations that may exist or any industry networking events. The idea is building your network in your area that will get you into the hearts & minds of other creatives which will in turn get you into some writing sessions or connecting with other artists that may be in fact looking for your type of material. We hope this gives you some direction as to what you are trying to accomplish. If you've haven't done so yet don't forget to subscribe to our channel and thanks so much for being an 'Insider'.

How much publishing do the publishers usually take from a artist and how do you get your masters ?

[@MUBUTV]

Hey Quay, thanks for your question. It depends, if you sign with a major publisher, usually it’s a 50-50% split. With a more independent publisher it could vary from 50-50 to other percentages. In regards to getting your masters. If you sign with a major again depending on the deal you sign it could vary. With the new 35 year revision law that reverts the rights back to the creators of the work, it all depends. If you’re going it alone and going 100% independent, maybe you sign with a publishing administrator which basically functions just like a publisher only they collect monies on your behalf and they take a small commission fee of around 15% but you own everything including your masters. So something to think about. Hope this helps, and thanks for being an ‘Insider’. MUBUTV

[@HUSTLER-AT-HEART]

@@MUBUTV thank you 🙏

[@coryrad9575]

Mr. Taylor, we need to talk.

[@rimadaschakraborty8411]

I have a question, how come artists who are performers and not necessarily songwriters get noticed by these big people?

[@MUBUTV]

Hi Rima, thanks so much for your comment and watching our interview with Sam Taylor. To answer your question, they’re are several reasons why certain types of artists get known. Typically it’s because the artist is making noise on their own and the music is connecting with their audience. Sometimes, A&R such as Sam can see something in the artist that they feel they can bring out the full potential from them by connecting them to other songwriters that can in turn bring them to the next level by collaborating etc.so there isn’t really one path it really depends on the circumstances. Each artist is unique and how they get there is different. We hope this answers your question to some degree. Don’t forget to subscribe and stay tuned for more new content coming soon.

[@BlackAstro_1]

Hiiiiii

[@Only_God_Is_Allah_SWT]

If you already have 1+ million of fans; THEN WHY THE HELL YOU NEED THE RECORD LABEL IN THE FIRST PLACE? Just give little money to buy yourself a website; set online shopping service and tools, put your website's link on all your social media accounts to direct those 1 million of your fans where they can buy your music and merch. The only reason an artist would need a record label is when he/she has 0 fans and no idea how to promote themselves. That's the moment when the record label should step in.
