Okay, so you we may have covered this but, I’d like it etched in your 🧠 …Neighboring Rights = the royalties your PRO isn’t telling you about. 🌍

They’re paid when your recordings (not just songs) play publicly around the world.

But here’s the kicker: if your metadata isn’t set up, the money gets stuck — or paid to someone else.

👀 Your PRO form is NOT busywork. It’s a paycheck.
Skip IPI, splits, or publisher info, and you’ll be chasing lost royalties for years.

Labels don’t win because they’re smarter… they win because they control metadata.

Every stream, sync, or placement runs through metadata.

No metadata = no money.
💡 Don’t give away what you can own.

Your music is ANOINTED… so why isn’t it going VIRAL? 🤔

The uncomfortable truth: Anointing opens doors, but PSYCHOLOGY makes content spread 🧠
See below:

❌ Most gospel content fails because it’s “spiritually correct” but psychologically boring
❌ Artists post the same content on every platform (huge mistake)
❌ They think “safe” content spreads (it doesn’t)
❌ They wait 30 seconds to get interesting (too late - you have 3 seconds)

✅ Viral gospel content makes the SHARER look good
✅ It bridges identities (like Tasha Cobbs = Worship + Fashion)
✅ It starts conversations, not just worship sessions
✅ It uses platform-specific psychology

This carousel reveals:
🔥 The 3-second hook formula that works
🔥 Why controversy (done right) spreads your message
🔥 Platform-specific content strategies
🔥 The collaboration code nobody talks about
🔥 How to bridge your anointing with viral psychology
Your calling is too important to stay hidden in the algorithm 📱

🫵🏽🫵🏽🫵🏽👇
Every week, your worship song could be playing in hundreds of live-streamed church services.

But here’s the real question…
Is your publishing set up to collect the royalties? 🎧💰

Let’s break it down:
✅ CCLI + WORSHIPcast licenses allow churches to stream legally
✅ You must be registered with ASCAP, BMI, or SESAC
✅ Your song needs to be reported and tracked to generate revenue
✅ Most gospel artists are leaving $$$ on the table—without knowing it
Even Maverick City Music earns consistent royalties from this setup.
It’s called micro-licensing—and it’s one of the best-kept secrets in faith-based music.

👀 Your songs are rental properties, not one-time sales 🏠!!

Most gospel artists think: “Release song → Promote → Move on!”

Smart gospel artists think: “Release song → Promote → Optimize → Repeat income”☝️

Your catalog should generate income for DECADES, not days.

Kirk Franklin’s “Stomp” still pays his bills 25+ years later.

Mahalia Jackson’s estate still collects royalties.
CeCe Winans’ classics still generate sync deals.
Every song you release is a property in your real estate portfolio.

Are you building assets or just making noise? 🤔

Save this if you’re ready to think like a music mogul 📌

💡 Did you know there’s a royalty check most indie and gospel artists never even claim?

It’s called Neighboring Rights — and it pays you when your recording (not your publishing) is played overseas.

Radio in Brazil? ✅ TV in Europe? ✅ Airport playlist in London? ✅

If you’re not registered, you’re leaving global money on the table.

💬 Drop a “💸” in the comments if you’ve ever heard of neighboring rights before.

📌 Save this so you don’t forget to register internationally.
