Your music is making money.
Unlock some of it now.
Social Playlist X helps independent artists, producers, songwriters and rights owners access upfront capital from the music they already own.
You may not need to sell your catalog forever. Depending on your rights, income and eligibility, you may be able to rent, license, or use your catalog to access upfront funding — while keeping some or all of your long-term ownership.
Don't know what your catalog is worth? We help work that out.
From catalog to capital
Six clear steps. No label, no gatekeepers, no pressure.
Tell us about your music
Start by submitting some basic information about your catalog and royalty income.
We may ask for
- ✓Artist / producer / songwriter name
- ✓Catalog size
- ✓Streaming history
- ✓Royalty income
- ✓Distributor
- ✓Publishing income
- ✓Ownership percentage
- ✓Recent royalty statements
You do not need to know what your catalog is worth. We help work that out.
We check what your music could qualify for
We review your catalog, income history and ownership to understand what funding options may be available.
We may look at
- ✓How much your music earns
- ✓How consistent the income is
- ✓Streaming performance
- ✓Catalog age
- ✓Rights ownership
- ✓Territory
- ✓Royalty history
- ✓Recent growth
- ✓Existing advances or agreements
The cleaner your paperwork is, the faster the process can move.
Choose how you want to unlock capital
Every artist is different. Depending on your catalog, there may be several ways to access money.
Rent your catalog
Instead of selling your music forever, you may be able to give a funding partner the right to receive certain music income for an agreed period — in return for cash upfront.
When the agreed period or structure ends, the rights may return to you — depending on the deal.
License your catalog
You may be able to license certain rights or income streams for a period of time in exchange for upfront capital.
This can be an option for artists who want cash today without permanently giving up everything they own.
Get upfront royalty funding
If your music already generates regular income, you may be able to access some of that future income today.
Think of it as unlocking money from royalties your catalog is expected to earn in the future.
Sell your catalog
If you want a larger lump sum and are comfortable giving up some or all of your rights permanently, a catalog sale may also be an option.
You decide which route makes sense for you.
Your catalog is an asset. We help you understand how it could work for you today.
Review your options
If your catalog qualifies, you may receive one or more potential funding options. Before choosing anything, you'll see the important terms:
- ✓How much cash you could receive
- ✓Which rights or royalty streams are involved
- ✓How long the arrangement lasts
- ✓What income is being collected
- ✓What ownership you keep
- ✓Any fees or repayment terms
- ✓What happens at the end of the agreement
You are never required to accept an offer.
Get your documents ready
Before funding can happen, the information you provide has to be verified. That may include:
- ✓Royalty statements
- ✓Distributor statements
- ✓Publishing statements
- ✓PRO statements
- ✓Catalog lists
- ✓Split sheets
- ✓Copyright information
- ✓Existing contracts

If you have everything ready, the process can move much faster.

The things every artist asks first
Do I have to sell my catalog?
No. That's the whole point. With Social Playlist X, you may not have to sell anything forever. Depending on your catalog, you may be able to rent or license it, or get upfront royalty funding, and still keep some or all of the long-term ownership of your music.
A full catalog sale is only ever one option you can choose — it is never forced on you.
Do I need to be famous?
No. You do not need millions of followers, a big name, or a record label. We are genre-agnostic and we work with independent artists of all sizes.
What matters is that your music generates real, verifiable income — from streaming, publishing, sync, or elsewhere. If it does, we want to hear from you.
What can I use the money for?
Whatever pushes your career forward. That's the point of the money:
Get a real number. Not a maybe.
