When I buy a beat does it still contain the  vocal tags?

Once a visitor has paid our low price of 99¢ for a specific beat they are interested in, they are immediately provided with a higher-quality version of the beat 100% tagless. Only the streaming audio versions of our beats contain “99Cenbeatz.com” vocal tags. After you purchase/download our beats you receive a version of the beat without a single vocal tag.

“What is an Exclusive Lease?”

“An Exclusive lease is a lease in which only a certain amount of people can download (ie: the number on the side of the beat name)

“What rights do I receive when purchasing a 99¢ license?”

When you purchase a 99¢ license, you receive non-exclusive rights to the instrumental. Non-exclusive rights enable the buyer to:

- Make one master recording over the beat/instrumental
- Distribute this recording for any profitable or non-profitable use for up to 4000 copies

Please understand that production credit must be given to 99centbeatz.com for distributed material. This can be done verbally on the recorded song, or displayed in text on the CD booklet/back cover.

“I’d like to own full rights to an instrumental. Do you offer exclusive rights?”

Yes, We do offer exclusive rights, If you are interested in purchasing Exclusive rights contact us via the contact page.

Free beats can be used for any non-profitable promotional or personal use including posting the recorded song on Myspace (and all other social networking sites), putting the song on your personal website, burning the song onto a cd to display your work for others, and any other non-profitable, non-commercial use.

“I Don’t Have 99¢, So I’m Just Going To Steal The Beat.”

There are people out there who steal beats from websites. Instead of paying the small leasing fee or buying exclusive rights, they’d rather steal a producer’s work.

There is no benefit in doing this. All of our beats are LEGALLY PROTECTED and owned by us until exclusive rights are purchased. After which ownership is then given to the buyer. Let’s say you steal one of our beats and put it on your mixtape or album. Without proof of purchase, all legal actions will be taken against you. Stealing beats is simply not worth it.
