in entertainment law, what is the most important step for me to do before i record a song with a producer?

Question

I have paid upfront with a music producer who mixed and mastered the song (music and beats which I created) that I recorded with. What steps do I need to take to ensure this song, including the music and beats, is completely mine and he will not be able to sue me for copyrights?

Lex-Praxis · Accepted Answer

Hi. The important step to take before recording a song with a producer is to have a contract signed between yourself and the producer. In fact, this ought to be done before or at the same time payment is made. Such contract will address issues of ownership rights as well as other important factors.

Hope this helps.
