In this episode, we talk about how to clear samples and why it's so important to do so - especially when it comes to owning music.
When you use samples in your music, you have to get permission from two sides of the sampled song:
If you don't get permission from these two sids, you're infringing on the copyrights and can end up in a messy and expensive legal situation that could cost more than the original use itself.
Do the right thing, and clear your samples before dropping music. It was save you thousands of dollars in the long run.

I get this question a lot: "If I'm signed up with ASCAP or BMI, then why do I also need to sign up with a publishing administration company?"
Or when I ask people "Are you in a publishing deal" the respond with, "Yes, I'm with ASCAP".
So I wanted to dedicate this episode to the differences between being with Performance Rights Organization (PRO) and having a publishing deal - and why you need both!
Remember, PRO's only represent your public performance right and only collect performance royalties.
