Samenvatting:
The Art of Business in Music, Second Edition
Endorsed by Alander “Big AJ” Pulliam Jr., Former Marketing Director, Universal Music Group.
Your Tactical Playbook for an Industry Built to Break You
Fully Reloaded. Seriously Expanded.
The Second Edition builds on everything from the first—and then unleashes over 40,000 new words. Nearly 100,000 words of unfiltered truth, real-world tactics, and battle-tested business intel. This is the upgrade they hoped you'd never get.
This Second Edition does more than teach—it takes a stand.
For the first time in publishing history, a music business book includes a formal, public petition to the United States Copyright Office, calling for a Notice of Inquiry (NOI) into the practices of the Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC). The author officially urges the Copyright Office to launch an NOI in response to the MLC’s obstruction and failure to comply with federal law—specifically, its disregard for properly executed Notices of Termination under Title 17 U.S. Code § 203 of the United States Copyright Act.
This public request to the United States Copyright Office, now preserved as part of the permanent record within this book, represents a real-world effort to reclaim mechanical rights under federal law. Chapter six presents the supporting evidence and details of the complaint. This is not theory, it is advocacy in action, grounded in fact, ethics, and an urgent commitment to defend the rights of authors and composers as protected by federal statute. The MLC, operating under the authority of the United States Copyright Office, is legally obligated to honor these rights, yet its current actions stand in direct conflict with those obligations.
Inside, you'll uncover:
• Why most artists never see money beyond their advance
• The hidden dangers of recoupable expenses
• The truth about masters, syncs, copyright & contracts
• How to spot manipulation and industry snakes
• 250 traits to help you find true allies
• A fire-tested blueprint to reclaim control
• Why ownership isn't just power—it’s survival
You have two choices:
-
Keep believing in music industry fairy tales and live in denial.
-
Or buy this book and equip yourself with the knowledge to master your business in music.
