Understanding Exclusive Rights

When you purchase an Exclusive License from me, you’re investing in a beat that becomes 100% yours to use without limits. Exclusives are designed for serious artists who want full creative control, long-term ownership, and a unique sound that will never be sold to anyone else.

 

Below is a clear breakdown of what you receive and what I, as the producer, ethically and professionally retain.

 

What You Receive With an Exclusive

​

As the buyer, you gain:

  • Full commercial rights

  • Unlimited streams & distribution

  • Unlimited monetization

  • Unlimited music videos & performances

  • Full-quality WAV + MP3 files

  • Complete stems / trackouts

  • Beat removed from my store permanently

  • No additional leasing by any other artist

You have full freedom to release, perform, promote, and monetize your song in any way you choose.

 

What I Retain as the Producer

​

Even with an exclusive, professional industry standards allow the producer to retain specific rights. These rights protect both parties and ensure correct credit and compensation.

​

Producer Credit

I always retain the right to be credited as the producer.
This includes:

  • “Produced by Lazy Aparicio”

  • Credit on streaming platforms

  • Credit on YouTube

  • Metadata / liner notes

Producer credit is a standard, permanent part of every exclusive sale.2. Publishing Share (Songwriter Rights)

As the creator of the instrumental, I keep a portion of the publishing, which is the songwriting side of royalties.

Industry standard publishing split:
50% Producer – 50% Artist

This does not affect your ability to monetize or release the song.
It simply ensures the producer receives their fair share of royalties if the song earns through:

  • Streaming royalties

  • Radio play

  • Live performance royalties

  • Sync placements (TV, film, games, ads)

These rights last for the life of the song, which is how the music industry properly credits creators.What I Give Up

With an Exclusive License, I permanently give up:

  • The right to resell the beat

  • The right to lease it to anyone else

  • The right to give it to another artist

  • Any ownership of the final master recording (your song)

Once purchased, the beat becomes your property to build your vision with.In the Simplest Terms

You own the beat.
I keep my credit.
We share the songwriting.

This protects you, honors my work, and keeps everything aligned with real industry standards.
