Julia Holt recently made a guest appearance on Law Insider's Contract Teardown Show to discuss an artist-friendly license agreement with Whip Shots, an alcohol-infused whip cream company. In the episode, Holt provided valuable insights into the legalities of licensing agreements and shed light on how artists can protect their interests in such deals.

Music licensing is another important legal consideration when self-releasing an album. You'll need different types of licenses for different uses, such as a mechanical license for when someone else wants to cover one of your songs or a sync license for when your music is used in a TV show or movie. Obtaining the necessary licenses is essential to avoiding legal issues down the line.
