My next curated sync album is officially in the works, titled “Radio.” The vision is modern Top 40 pop—think Bruno Mars, Sabrina Carpenter, Tate McRae, Lizzo, and Ed Sheeran—songs that feel current, timeless, and instantly familiar. For my curated albums, I won’t be accepting outside submissions. Instead, I’ll be executive producing and intentionally collaborating with select artists, songwriters, and producers to craft a cohesive, album-level body of work—projects that sound authentic, polished, and purpose-built for sync while still feeling like real records. If you believe your creative voice could be a strong fit for this project, throw your name in the mix—I’d love to connect.

Let’s talk about one of the most overlooked income streams in music — Mechanical Royalties 💰 🎵 What They Are: Mechanical royalties are payments owed to songwriters and publishers whenever a song they wrote is reproduced or distributed — whether physically (like CDs or vinyl), or digitally (downloads and streams). Think of it this way: Every time your song is mechanically reproduced — someone has to pay for that copy. 🎧 Where They Come From: Streaming services (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) Digital downloads (iTunes, Bandcamp, etc.) Physical sales (CDs, vinyl, etc.) Ringtones and interactive streams 💼 Who Collects Them: In the U.S., these royalties are collected and paid out by the Mechanical Licensing Collective (The MLC) to the songwriters and publishers. If you’re an independent artist who owns your publishing, make sure you sign up with The MLC so you don’t leave that money on the table. We are working on an admin course to help you through this process, coming soon!

Check out my first curated sync album of 2026! https://s.disco.ac/iachfijogbel WORLD DOMINATION — Press Synopsis World Domination is a bold, culture-forward curated album executive produced by Emmy and Telly Award–winning music producer Mr. Hit Record. Designed to transcend borders and genres, the project is a powerful fusion of global sonics, modern pop sensibilities, and sync-ready excellence—crafted with intention, cohesion, and worldwide reach. Blending influences from Afro-inspired rhythms, Latin and Caribbean energy, international pop, hip-hop, and anthemic global sounds, World Domination lives up to its name. The album features standout collaborations with platinum-selling Jamaican artist Serani, international charting Brazilian-Latin star Gabby B, sync licensing veterans Tribe Mafia, rising Latin sensations Baby Wine and Toshany, and a diverse lineup of emerging and established voices shaping the next wave of global music. What truly sets World Domination apart is its cultural depth. The project brings together contributors with roots spanning the United States, Puerto Rico, Brazil, Spain, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Africa, Colombia, Haiti, the Philippines, Nicaragua, Canada, France, and beyond, resulting in a sound that feels authentic, expansive, and undeniably international. More than just a compilation, World Domination is a curated album experience, strategically crafted for today’s global audience and tomorrow’s placements across film, television, advertising, gaming, and digital media. It’s a statement project that celebrates cultural unity, sonic ambition, and the power of music without borders.
