The Ultimate Guide To BEAT LICENSES

Did you know that when you sell/buy a beat, you are actually just selling/buying a license to use that beat? In this video I exaplain what a license is and the different types of licenses that you can find when selling or buying beats online. This video should help tremendously whether you're an artist or a producer!

I was surprised how difficult it was to get a breakdown of this information. Thank you for explaining it simply!

Cool. Good video. When I first started I didn't really realise the difference between all the different leasing options for your beats and the terms for different lease agreements. It's great to see someone clear it all up in 1 video.🤙

I need the best because I am among the best.
Just haven't found the right beat to motivate me till now.
Pretty sure.. it is fire.

You explained this the best, straight to the point and clear

Ok so I know a producer who makes beats on YouTube for free for profit and with no tags. Rappers are permitted to use the beats to monetize as well. There are contracts available but in the contracts, there is no time limit and no maximum limit of streams. Trust me this guy is legit too I know it’s not a scam. I DMed him on instagram and he said that the only scenario where he would take action is if the rapper is going to get signed by a record label, because he wants the record label to know his talent. Would you say that there really is no point in even leasing the beat?

Deff subscribing bro! I’ve looked up so many videos but couldn’t get a clear explanation but you explained it so perfectly! God bless you brother 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

What happens uf you buy an mp3 beat but it blows up going over your 5k streaming cap

[GHGHussle]

What about using beats for YouTube background music 🤔

5 years later and this the only video that finally made it make sense to me thank Ed Talenti

Love this explanation, but I wished you would have mentioned YouTube Content ID as that is also a major confusion when leasing beats and knowing their limitations. From what I understand, no lease sold “should” be monetized with Youtube Content ID but most people (both artists and beatmakers) dont know how it works. Then you will get multiple people trying to claim money to their version of your beat, but YT does not know how to tell the difference and only allows one version to be monitized. Love the rest of the points tho.

Thanks man this really helped me as i am about to start selling beats properly and this has given me the starter i need to do things the right way !

[crakbeats]

What about when someone buys an exclusive license on a beat thats been up for a year and already been leased to multiple people? Also what does the limit on streams/plays really mean? Like after its been streamed 5000 times on Spotify (mp3 license) it gets taken down?

[baronsynback]

Very straight forward and excellently worded. Thanks 🙏

[Lbizzle]

Thanks for the breakdown. Nicely done. Clear and informative.

[akkobeats]

Nice video man! Been seeing your stuff on IG, looking forward to more 💪🏽

[josueblas]

How do you ensure artists don’t pass the number of streams and plays they get for the specific lease that they bought?

[blownashh]

Good Information here. I like your contents🔥🔥
One question. What if someone buys a "tracks out or exclusive" license for a beat that already been sold multiple licenses to different rappers/singers ?

[nesbeatz]

Now I understand this selling beats more...thank you
