Yes. A producer may have contractual master royalty rights even if they do not own part of the underlying composition or publishing rights. The rights are separate, and the agreement determines what is available.
Publishing royalties are paid for the song itself, including the original music and lyrics. Master royalties relate to the specific recording. A producer might receive a production fee and negotiated points on a recording without owning a publishing share. Another producer may own both.
Elizabeth Music Group Master Royalties focuses on the master side. We review the producer agreement, label information, payment history, and available statements to determine whether there is a royalty interest we can help pursue. We do not require you to move your publishing to Elizabeth Music Group Publishing to request a master royalty review.
For example, if a label contract grants master points but the song's writing credits belong to other people, those points may still be relevant. What matters is the recording agreement, not an assumed publishing percentage.
Send us the contract and release details. If you are unsure which rights you hold, we can help separate the two questions before discussing collection.
If a producer has no publishing rights in a song, can Elizabeth Music Group Master Royalties still review their master points?
