If you want to learn about SAMRO, I've made a playlist of videos that will teach you everything you need to know about the organization and how to join them. youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…

Most countries have one main performance rights organization. South Africa is no different, but you're free to choose which country's PRO you want to join.

Ever wondered what the difference is between ISRC and ISWC codes?

Cue sheets aren't something musicians have access to. I may be dreaming here, but a digital reporting system that's automated would be an absolute dream.

Radiomonitor may be necessary but quite frankly it's out of the price range of most upcoming artists. Those that do pay end up using their royalties to pay their subscription to the service. Radiomonitor and Tunesat costs are more easily absorbed if you have investment or a label

I've benefitted from SAMRO initiatives, but such stories make you wonder how much more impact could be made.

Here are my music consultation services explained. Be sure to DM or email me for info and booking availability.

How long should you wait before your SAMPRA registration is approved?

Why does SAMRO corruption feel so bad. Are we the only ones facing this problem?

How long should you wait to receive your relation number from SAMRO? Generally you want to give them 30 to 45 before following up aggressively. Always contact via call.

This is how much if costs to register your music and earn all your royalties. It's not a costly exercise so try to get it done ASAP.

Release your music. Don't let it die on someone's hard drive.

I recently did a video where I breakdown how music royalties end up in the artist's pocket. It obviously doesn't account for corruption, but it's a simple breakdown that should help you understand the system better. youtu.be/p7-AzsBhQS8?si=ILgq…

Do you have any questions about the South African music industry?
