In 2020, Tiffany Red was a working songwriter caught inside the same broken system she’d watched exploit creators for years. Outdated contracts, missing royalties, no transparency and no accountability. No organization was willing to make enough noise about it. So she built one.
If the space doesn’t exist, build it.
We built relationships with decision-makers by challenging them to evolve, not by making them comfortable.
Contracts
More than 10 songwriters and producers exited outdated deals, many signed before streaming was the dominant format.
Grants & royalties
Multiple grant rounds for working creators, plus help recovering royalties that were already owed and sitting unclaimed.
Industry rules
We’ve pushed to end Minimum Delivery Requirements in publishing deals, and we successfully advocated for BMI to add window periods to member dashboards, a change that’s now live for every BMI writer.
Creators we’ve fought for, in their own words.
