Why We Require Documentation from Artists on Big Masterz Africa Distribution Platform

At Big Masterz Africa, we are committed to providing artists with the best distribution services while ensuring full transparency and legal compliance.

As part of our onboarding process, we require certain documentation from each artist who uploads their music to our platform.

Here are the key reasons why:

1. Ownership Verification
To protect both the artists and our platform, it’s important that we verify the ownership of all music uploaded.

This prevents unauthorized uploads and ensures that each artist owns the rights to the content they are distributing.

Proper documentation, such as proof of ownership or agreements with collaborators, helps maintain trust and integrity.

2. Royalties Distribution
Accurate documentation is crucial for ensuring that royalties are correctly calculated and paid out.

Whether it’s streaming revenue, sync placements, or other forms of income, having the right documentation allows us to process payments promptly and distribute them fairly to the rightful owners.

3. Copyright Protection
In today’s digital landscape, protecting your intellectual property is more important than ever.

By requiring proper documentation, we can better safeguard your rights and prevent unauthorized use of your work.

This also helps us take swift action in case of copyright disputes.

4. Compliance with Industry Standards
Big Masterz Africa follows industry standards for music distribution and publishing.

To meet these requirements, we need to collect and verify documents that demonstrate an artist’s eligibility to receive payments, sign agreements, or benefit from our services.

This also includes adhering to international laws governing digital distribution and royalties.

5. Advancing Your Career
By having all your paperwork in order, you’re better positioned to take advantage of career-boosting opportunities, such as receiving advances, getting sync licensing deals, and more.

Accurate documentation opens doors to partnerships and placements that can further your music career.

Conclusion
Requiring documentation might feel like an extra step, but it’s designed to protect you and ensure that you receive the recognition, revenue, and opportunities you deserve.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work together to promote and protect your music through Big Masterz Africa.
