I’ve been blessed enough to help legendary #LegacyActs retain or regain access to their #masters after rights to terminate come up. Most are able to retrieve without issue. Nevertheless, because #SaltNPepa were 17 year old kids who didn’t know they were signing off their music as “Work For Hire”…. this might not be fixable.

To EVERYONE. You too, #tech geeks, especially the app developers. Please review EVERYTHING YOU’VE EVER SIGNED. Please check your ownership rights OFTEN. Protect yourself.

Also, if you were ever a fan of Salt ‘N Pepa’s #music… you’d better go out and buy a physical copy of their albums NOW, because if it doesn’t go right, you will not be able to play their music via streaming at ALL. They are already moving to take their music out of all commercial use licenses… movie and tv placements, TV and radio commercials… everywhere you’ve ever heard a SHOOP or PUSH IT… won’t be there anymore.

Physical copies are STILL IMPORTANT.
