If so, how do you go about copyrights? Mainly for lyrics, but eventually beats also. I'm a lil confused trying to figure this out.

Where are you putting up your music to be concerned?

Who you working with?

Ha ya man I hear that. Technically and legally the second you create something it is yours and under copyright. Socan will help if you want to officially register stuff. At the moment if you're just doing your own thing you probably don't need to worry too much about any official documentation but that's your perogative.

Send me your site.
