Glamourpuss 29,062 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I'm assuming he gets a one off fee when they sign contracts to work with each other. And he signs the contract for an agreed amount of royalties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

giskardsb 12,565 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 producers are generally paid directly at session, and usually end up getting some royalty points. If you wonder why modern producers also work on writing songs it's because songwriters get higher percentage of royalties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIghtmareElm 2,606 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 That's actually a great question. Something I have always wondered about too. Since Gaga chose him as a producer, does she pay him out of her pocket for working on the album? Or did Interscope pay him? If Interscope is the one that pays the producers, does Gaga have to ask Interscope for every producer she works with? This would obviously be before royalty fees. I rappers will charge a certain fee for a verse to be featured on another artist's song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand how they set up the hourly price bc maybe one day they won't be very efficient and they will chat all day long, one day they won't find any inspiration...

brownie 5 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 So in the case of Gaga, Interscope will usually pay for her producer booking fee / time / studio. They hope that some of the tracks she makes with any given producer will end up singles, or album material. If she makes 5 songs with a producer and none make the album, the producer still gets paid plenty for his time. In some cases, the producer can take the material and use it later for other projects too -- we know Zedd and DJWS have used scrapped Gaga material before. With Gaga herself though, she has her own studio in Malibu / studios she frequents where she knows the owners, and if she wants to go in with DJWS and work off the clock just jamming, she can too. She probably pays DJWS very nicely, but I'm almost certain they also just spend nights experimenting in her own studios or on the tour bus. Even if she doesn't pay him for the direct studio time, he'd get paid very well for being an executive album producer like he was on ARTPOP for example. He'd get royalties for every song he wrote / produced that made an album too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIghtmareElm 2,606 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Also what does an executive producer do on an album? Like Suge Knight was the executive producer for Snoop and 2 Pac's album but he didn't actually work on any of the songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 97,982 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 No, producers work for charity Spoiler Of course she did, what kind of question is that If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
