Q&A: What Contract Do I Have Music Producers Sign To Give Me Rights To Their Beats?
Question by WhiteWood: What Contract Do I Have Music Producers Sign To Give Me Rights To Their Beats?
The question says it all. I make music. And I have lots of producers wanting to give me beats. But nowhere along the line do I want to be jipped by a producer with a grudge saying I can’t use that song anymore. I do buy the beats, but I want indisputable signed proof that there is no way that this producer can come back and try to reclaim his beat. What’s the name of the contract I have to draw up?

Answer by FORCH FABALON
you can draw up something yourself, just make sure it is exclusive to that recording,
Go real simple and by naming it, dating it, and stating that this track is exclusive to this recording
the verbiage doesnt have to be that strong, but it does have to be matter of fact,
Orlicenseuld just lisence licenset, that will cover the agreement to use the music, but those usual end at some point, then its no longer valid.
But check online for producers contracts
Because even tho, you get the beat to yourself, the producer can easily make a simlar tsimilaregally, by switching the drums or a simple sound
Kanye, Mannie Fresh, Swizz Beats, pretty much any top producer been doing that for years
specially when they get hot, and everybody want that sound
