YOU MADE
THE MUSIC.
GET PAID
FOR IT.
Publishing royalties exist for every song you write. Most independent artists never collect them. FOF Publishing registers your catalog, tracks your splits, and makes sure every dollar finds its way back to you.

PUBLISHING
IS MONEY
YOU'RE OWED
Every time your song is streamed, played, licensed, or performed — publishing royalties are generated. Without a publisher, most of that money never reaches you.
Music publishing covers the composition copyright. Every song has two copyrights: the master (your recording) and the composition (the song itself). Publishing pays separately from your distribution income.
Songs not registered with PROs don't collect performance royalties. Unregistered splits cause disputes and delays. Missing metadata means platforms can't trace income back to you. It adds up fast.
Undocumented splits become legal problems. Incomplete metadata means royalty systems can't find you. FOF Publishing fixes this before it becomes your problem.
Major artists have teams handling this. Independent artists often have nobody. FOF Publishing gives indie creators the same infrastructure — without signing away creative rights.
FOF Publishing is an admin deal, not a full rights transfer. You keep your catalog. We handle the administration. The difference matters — and we're on the right side of it.
Songs compound over time. A record that earns modestly today can generate significant royalties years from now — especially if it gets a sync placement or goes viral.

WHO THIS
IS FOR
IF YOU
RELEASE
MUSIC
You're writing the songs, recording them, putting them out — but without publishing admin, a significant portion of what you earn stays uncollected. FOF Publishing closes that gap.
- ✓You release original music (singles, albums, EPs, mixtapes)
- ✓You write or co-write your songs
- ✓You want publishing royalties, not just streaming income
- ✓You're not signed to an exclusive full-publishing deal
- ✓You want to build catalog value over time
IF YOU
MAKE THE
BEATS
Producers are songwriters too. Every beat on a released song earns publishing income. Without admin, that money disappears. FOF Publishing ensures you collect your share.
- ✓You produce beats that are commercially released
- ✓You have production credits on streamed or distributed songs
- ✓Your split agreements are (or can be) documented
- ✓You want performance and mechanical royalties collected
- ✓You're building a production catalog
IF YOU
WRITE THE
WORDS
Songwriters who don't perform their own music are often the most underpaid people in the room. If your words are on a released record, you're owed publishing royalties.
- ✓You write lyrics or melodies for other artists
- ✓Your songs have been commercially released
- ✓You have writing credits (or can document them)
- ✓You're registered with a PRO (or ready to register)
- ✓You want to turn your catalog into a revenue stream
