She's a signed artist to Interscope...they own her music masters 

She's not independent...

She might actually own a lot of the masters of the tracks she did with Rob Fusari. Most of them were created when she was with Def Jam and she took her master's with her when she left.

Otherwise no.

No, behind the year Interscope is listed and not her own name like Lana or Taylor. That means she doesn't own the masters.

The master ownership is kinda of a mess it's not only interscope but it's shared with Akon, Vincent Herbert and Troy Carter

yeah Akon and Troy sold many things from the investment on her to interscope but not their share in the masters because the "sinking ship" will still bring money through music :yennefer:

I don't know what is their percentage of the share on the master but they still owe something with interscope, so they still earn from every use of the songs.

Interscope records own the master recordings of her music, with the mega hits Gaga has I highly doubt she’ll ever buy her catalogue or be given it back as part of a new deal. I do believe that Gaga has earned the most of the money made from her music because she apparently signed a 360 deal for 5 albums, at the start of her career. And usually, from those deals the artist will take 40-80% of royalties from music sales. 

Good thing her publishing is entirely separate from Universal and signed to Sony/ATV for that, so she earns money (50/50) from having her songs in commercials, movies, played on radio (pays a LOT), anywhere in public, official cover song releases of her songs.

Yes, if the name behind the year means that.

Do y’all think Gaga is doing so many sponsorships now because she’s out of the original 5 album deal and renegotiated it where she gets a bigger share of sponsorship money?
