← Release Guideline

Composition shares

Confirm all writer and publisher splits before registration.

Agree the ownership split

List everyone who wrote the lyrics or music and agree their composition shares in writing. Composition splits describe ownership of the song, separate from ownership of the recording.

Check the total

The agreed writer shares should total 100%. Identify any publisher administration separately and make sure agreements explain territories and duration.

Resolve changes first

If contributors disagree, settle the split before requesting registration or collection. Retain a dated approval from every participant.
