I would say yes to that question.

I imagine the umbrella LLC would be a record label which is simply to record and sell my own records.

Not really aiming to sign others.

Trying to work in the industry without having to sign with anyone else.

If signing others ends up making sense then I'm open to it.
If that’s the case there’s no need to start a publishing company:dahell:


If you’re doing your own music just get artist publishing and start pushing your music to as many outlets as possible

You're live! "Black History Mont" is on Spotify

I got this in an email from Distrokid. I don't have Spotify, but Cool.

Legal Zoom beat you over the head.
It costs around $100 to file for an LLC directly with the state.
ASCAP memberships are free. BMI is a one time $50 fee.
Distributing your music to streaming platforms costs about $20 a year through Distrokid.

I definitely added some extra shyt. But it seems like it will be useful.

I am overwhelmed with emotion about my release.

Reference track for my next offering

I make these to listen to like 100 times so I can memorize it in THAT way (like how you know popular songs)

Came out pretty dope tho
