Licensing FAQ
Why exclusive licensing only?
Soul City Vibes production incorporates the art of sampling — a foundational element of hip-hop culture. Exclusive-only licensing ensures that sample clearance can be properly coordinated with one artist, protecting both the buyer and the producer. It also means you're the only artist who will ever release music on that beat.
What is included with every exclusive license?
Every exclusive license includes WAV + Stems + MP3 files, unlimited streams, unlimited distribution, unlimited music videos, for-profit live performances, unlimited radio broadcasting, full commercial use, and the beat is permanently removed from the catalog. Credit is optional.
Why do some beats have a starting price and others say "Contact for Pricing"?
Beats with a listed starting price have an established floor based on production value and demand. Beats listed as "Contact for Pricing" are priced by negotiation — factors include intended use, commercial scope, and whether sample clearance is required.
What is sample clearance and why does it matter?
Sample clearance is the legal process of obtaining permission from the original copyright holders to use a sampled recording commercially. Without clearance, releasing music on a sampled beat commercially can result in legal liability for the artist. Soul City Vibes coordinates sample clearance as part of the exclusive licensing process so buyers are fully protected.
How do I inquire about a beat?
Click the "Contact for Pricing" or "Starting at $500" button on any beat, or visit the Contact page directly. Include the beat name, your intended use, and any relevant release details and we'll get back to you promptly.
Can I preview beats before inquiring?
Yes — all beats in the portfolio have 30-second previews available. Hit play on any track to hear it before reaching out.
How long does the licensing process take?
Simple exclusive licenses with no sample clearance required can be turned around quickly. Deals involving sample clearance depend on the rights holders and can take longer. We'll give you a clear timeline when you inquire.
Do you offer custom beats or work-for-hire production?
Yes. If you don't find what you're looking for in the catalog, reach out via the Contact page to discuss custom production.
