The musician or the record label?When a musician changes his record label who keeps the rights to sell the music?
More than likely, everything that was recorded while the artist was under contract with record label A is owned by record label A even if was never released, unless record label B buys the songs from label A. Every new song the artist records after the switch belongs to label B. In rare cass when the artist is powerfull enough to keep ownership of his music he can take it with him where ever he is signed because he alone owns it....this is extremely rare!When a musician changes his record label who keeps the rights to sell the music?
Depends on the contract. Its usually the label but the musician does get royalties..When a musician changes his record label who keeps the rights to sell the music?
Contract determines it
