Interesting enough, many exCheiron guys are not on that earnings list containing 125 people. Ali Payami is everywhere on charts but he earns so much less than Max and Shellback. It may be that his earnings split contract with Max is quite modest, compared to Shellback's. Ilya is even not on a list. Politics?

Also interesting to see ABBA guys still earn net 10M USD 40 years after their hits were written. This looks like a best business in the world :) Only obstacle is, it is extremely hard to break into top guys gang. Finally, last guy on a list earns 200K USD, quite a nice support.

As I remember from billboard article about This is what you came for, the authors get up to 40% of song earrings, producers get up to 4%.

Ali is one of several producers, and I guess his investment in songs' writing is not that big. Actually, his income is 4% of MM's income. Looks right.

Ali makes tracks that become songs.
Basically, he's an author too. I think he gets at least 25% of input.

And I liked it..

Luke has always been scum.  The courts just decided to roll around in it too.

I'm curious, can you elaborate this impression a bit

Have you ever met Luke? 

Before the companies?  Before Sony?  Before Max?  Or even right around when they were meeting?


What about Martin? Did you ever know him or is this just a fanboy site?

No I haven't. If you did it would be interesting to hear about them from a first-hand experience. It would nicely  complement other parts of this topic.

Well, it's hard to do but we have to separate the person from the author.

You can be a horrible musician and a great person, or a great musician and a terrible human being.
Or a good brother and a terrible son... for example.

Ne-Yo - Nights like these. My favorite Luke's song since 2015 or so. Co-produced with Cirkut and Billboard
