Who Gets Paid When You Listen?

Music is everywhere. But the people who write it, produce it,

and bring it to life often make next to nothing from your streams.

​Streaming platforms and record labels take 85% of the revenue, leaving just 15% for music creators to split with publishers and collaborators.

Most music creators aren’t earning enough to cover the bills anymore; that's the hard truth.​ So we decided to build something that puts real support directly into creators’ hands.

​

Founded by The 100 Percenters Foundation, this donor-powered fund will continue the Career Stimulus Grant Program, helping creators invest in equipment, studio time, creative projects, and career growth.

​

The Fund also includes an Emergency Relief Grant Program, providing direct financial assistance to creators facing medical emergencies, unexpected financial hardship, or natural disasters, because no one should lose their livelihood over a crisis.

​

In addition, the Fund helps subsidize copyright registration costs, making it more affordable for creators to properly protect the work that powers this entire industry.

​

Help us support the people who make the music you love.
