Sound Royalties’ unique model, tailored to creatives’ individual needs, lets creators keep full ownership of their copyrights while providing ongoing cash flow during the term of the advance. The company works with all types of royalty streams to maximize clients’ options, going far beyond solely music streaming platform revenues. It works with thousands of accomplished creatives of all levels like artist DJ Khaled (Rick Ross, Jennifer Lopez, Migos), music producer David Tickle (Prince, U2, The Police), songwriters Sonia Leigh (Zac Brown Band), Steve Dorff (Barbra Streisand, Kenny Rogers, Whitney Houston), and Larry Weiss (Glen Campbell, Dolly Parton, Barry Manilow), among many others.
