Billboard Publishing

Billboard Publishing refers to the business of managing the rights to music compositions, such as song melodies and lyrics. When a song is played publicly—on the radio, streaming platforms, or live venues—Billboard Publishing ensures the songwriters and composers receive royalties. They collect these payments from music users and distribute them to the creators. Think of it as a system that recognizes and rewards the effort behind the music, ensuring creators are compensated whenever their work is enjoyed by the public. This process helps sustain creativity and supports songwriters in their careers.
