The payment system in our part of the advertising industry is often opaque and unfair to artists. At The Ringers, we prioritize artists and composers, offering transparent deals, a 50/50 profit split with our composers, and minimal overhead costs (20% of the gross). This ensures that artists are fairly compensated and credited. Our composers retain full control and ownership of their publishing rights, and we never take a cut of what rightfully belongs to them. We challenge other music companies to be as transparent in their dealings with composers. #fairplay #transparency #integrity #sustainability

UPDATE ABOUT MY SITUATION: Unfortunately, my situation with Bandlab remains unchanged. Despite multiple attempts to reach out, my songs are still locked with a red lock, and I'm unable to fully delete them from their site. My Bandlab page is still shadowbanned. I'm determined to continue speaking out because I don't want anyone else to face the same issues I have. It's not right that creators aren't being heard or protected. I'll keep advocating for change until this issue is resolved. #Bandlab #IntellectualProperty #CreatorsRights #Shadowban #MusicRights #ArtistRights #IntellectualPropertyMatters #CreativesUnite #MusicIndustry #BandlabFail #ShadowbanScandal #MusicianProblems #CopyrightInfringement #DigitalRights #MusicLaw #ArtisticFreedom #CreatorProtection #MusicPlatformFail #StandWithCreators

Today's Digiday piece on Drake's feud included thoughts from our own James Kirkham. "Every diss, lyric or legal action is amplified into viral fodder, Drake and Lamar, like many creators today, are playwrights scripting feuds to keep their audiences hooked... Artists leverage fanbases to propel streaming numbers, merch sales, and even cultural clout. This is nothing new for those of us who have spent any time working in music. Kendrick against Drake reveals the price of a loyalty where fans unwittingly become an active player in an artist’s commercial machine.” https://lnkd.in/eRGqBnzz

Many musicians pour their heart into creating music, only to find their work misused or stolen because it wasn’t properly protected. Without the right safeguards, you risk losing credit, income, and control over your art. Protecting your music is critical to securing your creative legacy. Start by copyrighting your work, registering with a performance rights organization to collect royalties, and embedding watermarks or metadata to track and claim your rights. These steps not only protect against theft but also ensure you’re compensated for your talent. Don’t leave your hard work vulnerable—take action now to secure your future.
