How To Sell A Song You Wrote Become A Songwriter
You can start thinking about how to pitch your song to music publishers, record labels, music libraries, and recording artists if you've written a song that sounds like it could appeal to today's listeners-one that has a memorable chorus, a focused lyric with a fresh approach, and a contemporary, radio-friendly melody. If you want to be a recording artist, keep in mind that many of today's best performers and producers began their careers as songwriters with publishing deals, so it's a wonderful place to start.
A music tip sheet, or song tip sheet, is a research service that regularly publishes information about which recording artists and film and TV projects are looking for music, along with the appropriate contact information. They are used by songwriters, publishers and record producers, but most commonly by new songwriters looking to gain a foothold in the industry.

Just remember that the big record labels still have their grip on everything, there are many artist fighting to be heard just like you and just like me. This is just an option that some artist can afford to buy into, and some of those artist get lucky having the perfect song for the perfect time, you never know what the future holds, but dont place all your hope in ONE outcome, always have a plan B, plan C and more. Every song you write has the potential to change your life, but in most cases it may come years after your plan A. So keep writing!

HEy thanks for the question Jaholo, the best way is to really team up with others as hard as it may be, because you need to present a finished product to have the "WOW" effect and sell your song. When you put pen to paper and write your lyrics, you envision the finished song already, but to the person reading your lyrics, they just see a poem. You gotta make them see the whole picture, otherwise they will just move on to the next song.

@TieDyeKitty 3 ай бұрын

Hey Cameron, the only thing you can really do is align yourself with Soca in some way and launch yourself out from that after some time, because Soca has the Trini audience. The truth is for all music these days is that everyone has become lazy, no one makes the time to seek good music again, they rather be told what to listen to. And if everyone listens to soca, start working your way in that direction. Chromatics (Richard Raj-Kumar) has been around for years in the Trini rap scene but this year went in the direction of soca to gain more attention. Nailah Blackman is a pop/rock singer songwriter, who is now on the tips of most trinidad lips because of soca, but she has being intoducing her true self and style of music on her albums little by little, so when she does switch, to a pure pop/rock type album, no one will complain. And well the is also Freetown Collective, they are on the verge of Folk music in Trinidad, but one of their biggest songs broke into the soca market in a big way!

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I myself do not know the market value going rate per song, because I would imagine it may go in accordance to the hit potential and which artist wants to buy your song. Next thing is royalties, work on what % of the song you wrote, was it 100% or did they just use your chorus, there are many things that could influence that. But the main thing to know, is that once your name goes down as a songwriter on the song, you will get royalties for life.

Guys dont do this, rather get in touch with anyone in the industry and pitch them the way u think they can be reached, because in this industry , mostly songs are from their own circle of friends or network, your melody alone is valuable and can be stolen just like that, if u submit a cool ass melody they dont care about your lyrics as long as it sounds good and fresh, now they are trying to find the next big genre, as the top Artists nowadays become big because of new Styles they came up with. Fusion of different genre, lets say post malone, he fused hip hop pop and country and alot more to sound fresh and new, because people will always gets bored listening to same type music, so now, its the end of that melodic rap era, currently were waiting for the next era, so becareful guys when submitting, if its too dope, release it on your own, make sure to get a copyright

Hi Poppy Paul, thanks for your input on this topic! But most have no connection when they first start off, so any and everything including tip sheet or songwriter conferences is a great help. Tip sheets may not always bring the best deals, but you really never know who is looking for songs or even where they look.

@@TieDyeKitty no not really, i think they're just giving songwriters false hope.

@@TieDyeKitty networking. that's also what the industry professionals says. artists seem to write with their friends and people they trust and feel comfortable with. i think that to get a cut with artists that you have no connection with, you need to be one of the top writers in the industry, or you won't be taken seriously. or at least get a referral or recommendation by any of the gatekeepers.

This is true, because do u think that major artist doesnt have friends that probably already pitching them songs and they have already the best people around them in terms of writing and producing sounds, and most of the artist rather make their own song and dont like to get others to be credited because Artists especially main stream mostly are capable and have their own pride in producing their own music and writing their own lyrics and finding their own melody. This is like submitting ideas and then gets rejected but they already gets your melody, they can always reject yours but still can use your melody and all and produce better version of it

Record companies: Go to: Songs from a rebel's past. Peter Calabria. The lyrics are utterly original and radically left as will fit as counterbalance to the coming wave of right wing takeover in November

clear as mud. if there is "so much competition" then why are the billboard charts constantly full of songs which are absolute crap. and taxi, the service mentioned, requires a fully recorded, mixed, mastered version of the song, before even considering it; so if the song is already fully album-ready then what is the point of paying them $$$ as a submission it, since the track is already suitable for a direct release.

Some artist write songs that just don't fit their style, or songs written in a different genre. So they will put them up for sale in that case.

How do they pay songwriter

@TieDyeKitty Жыл бұрын

In most cases it will be through your lawyer because you should have some sort of contract for the sale of the song.
