In the world of creators and performers, whether famous or aspiring artists, theft is commonly known by different names: it is sometimes refered as “plagiarism”, “intellectual theft”, “artistic theft”, “copying”, or “infringement”. The purpose is always the same: to usurp the work of others to make a name for oneself.
Moreover, it can affect not only the melody of the music but also the edits, broadcasts and even the lyrics!
There is nothing more rewarding than creating a song and being prepared to publish it, under your name or pseudonym, of course, so that everyone hears it and associates it with your artistic personality. On the other hand, there is nothing worse when someone else takes credit for it instead of you.
In a highly creative and competitive artistic environment, it is important for musicians, even amateurs, to plan to establish the proof of their anteriority on their musical creation. This will limit the risk of unauthorised exploitation by a third party.
Copyright for Music. Protecting a song or music has never been easier.
Let’s start with a little definition: what is a musical work? It is a composition, with or without words, created by one or more individuals.
Secondly, a musical work must be the result ofcreative work, and therefore be original. Artistic works, including musical works, are protected by copyright law by the mere fact of their creation
But how can you prove that your song or lyrics were created on a specific date? And by you? These are major questions that will arise in the event of disputes, for example, concerning a copy or an inspiration bordering on plagiarism.
