If you’re an independent artist pulling solid streaming numbers on platforms like Spotify or Apple Music, you could qualify for a \$50K to \$2M advance—without signing a record deal.
These advances are based on your projected future royalties. Companies evaluate your streaming performance and offer upfront cash in exchange for a temporary cut of your royalties. You keep your independence, creative control, and ownership of your masters.
I am Shartric “Fly Shy” Boyd, with over 20 years in the music business. I’ve helped artists get funded without losing their rights and currently serve as a label marketing consultant for six-time Grammy-considered, chart-topping producer Anthony “Sam Peezy” Avery, who recently secured a major distribution deal through Virgin/UMG.
Here are three legit platforms offering royalty advances:
1. Sound Royalties
Advance Range: \$5K – \$2M+
No rights or deal required. Just steady royalties and past statements.
2. BeatBread
Advance Range: \$1K – \$2M
Data-driven funding based on streaming. You stay 100% independent.
3. Lyric Financial
Advance Range: \$5K – \$500K
Fast advances for artists with consistent digital income.
