Music Licensing & PRO Pipeline
Two ways to pay: tokens for online and indie licences, cash for broadcast and big campaigns. Buy once, use forever on that project. Indie and broadcast licences include PRO cue sheet metadata so African creators get their backend royalties.
Understanding Your License
We believe in total transparency. Here is exactly what your license covers and how your rights work.
Perpetual Clearance
Your sync rights never expire. Once published in your registered project, it remains cleared forever without any recurring subscription fees.
Licensed, Not Sold
You purchase the legal right to synchronize and broadcast the music. Underlying master copyright remains with the African composer and Mulika Studios.
100% Royalty-Free
Pay a single upfront fee. You never pay per-view, per-stream, or per-episode sync royalties out-of-pocket to MAS or the composer.
Project-Specific Scope
Each license covers your registered production, channel, or series. Distinct third-party corporate client campaigns require separate sync clearances.
Tokens or Cash
No subscription needed. Everyday licences use tokens; broadcast and big campaigns are priced in cash.
Sounds, loops and music licences
For YouTubers, editors, indie filmmakers and producers. Top up once and spend as you go.
Broadcast & big campaigns

Guaranteed Royalties for African Artists. Zero Headaches for Editors.
When African music is broadcast on television or film, broadcasting networks pay performance royalties. Video editors often fail to log African composers because they lack PRO metadata. MAS automatically generates an industry-standard 1-page PDF Cue Sheet upon purchase containing composer legal names, PRO affiliations (UPRS, SAMRO, PRS, ASCAP), IPI numbers, and publisher splits.
