What rights do I need to upload, license or sell work through Songbay?

Before you upload, license or sell any song, lyric, recording or other material through Songbay, you must own all necessary rights in that material. If you own only a share, you must have the clear permission of every co-writer, co-owner or other rights holder before using the service. Human-created songs and lyrics: You must own the copyright in the song or lyric you upload, or own an agreed share and have the clear permission of every other copyright owner. Where there is a recording, you must also hold the master-recording rights or have permission from the master owner. You must not upload, license or sell another artist's songs, lyrics, recordings, arrangements, samples, performances, voices or other protected material unless you have all permissions and licences required to do so. Lyrics must be entirely human-written: Songbay does not allow AI-generated or AI-assisted lyrics to be uploaded, licensed or sold in any form. Anyone submitting AI-written or AI-assisted lyrics for sale is in breach of Songbay's terms. Lyrics offered on Songbay must be 100% human-created, and the seller must own or control the rights they are offering. AI-generated or AI-assisted songs: Songbay may accept AI-generated or AI-assisted songs where the underlying lyric is entirely human-written, the AI use is clearly disclosed, and the user holds the full commercial-use rights required for the song and for the Songbay selling option chosen. You must comply with the terms of the AI service used and must not use material where the provider restricts commercial use or where its terms are incompatible with your intended listing. You remain responsible for obtaining permission for any third-party recordings, samples, voices, likenesses, prompts or other protected input included in the work. If you are unsure whether you hold the necessary rights or permissions, please obtain advice before uploading. You must not use Songbay to offer material that you are not entitled to use, license or sell.
