What Is PRO And Why You Need It As An Artist?

If you are a serious artist you should definitely register with PRO company…

Below I will explain to you what it is and why you need it if you are a serious rapper, songwriter, etc.


PRO (Performance Rights Organization) – This is an organization that helps artists and music publishers collect and pay money for the usage of their music. It gains royalties from radio plays (as well as internet radios), TV shows, commercials or live shows, venues, and concerts. You can register your work with those organizations.


All royalities are paied to PRO. Such as ASCAP, SESAC, BMI, Zaiks, SOCAN, … . Then they send collected money to artists and their music publishers. Every country has its own PRO company. Here is a list –> LINK


It is really important if you are a serious artist to have such an Agreement with a PRO company, otherwise, you will lose your royalties from plays…

Performing rights organizations collect performance royalties for artists and their music publishers, but they don’t collect mechanical royalties, sync fees, and digital performance royalties associated with the creation of master recordings.


SoundExchange – pay for – digital performance royalties associated with the creation of master recordings.

Here I prepared a video on how to get registered with ASCAP:

If you are already registered with the PRO company you will collect performance royalties, also you want to get your mechanical and sync fees right?

To Collect ALL your royalties I highly recommend using DistroKid Pro Service.
