Williams’ crossover appeal resonates in Miley Cyrus’ anthemic “We Can’t Stop,” which has sold over 2.9 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. “It started off with me being all the way influenced by Atlanta and southern music but I knew my sound had to grow – I started learning melodies.” Though Williams grew up listening to hip-hop, as a teenager he began educating himself on country and pop. For his debut album, Williams will receive 4.5% of the royalties assigned to each song, on top of publishing royalties. Most producers make money in three ways: earning advances (upwards of $75,000 per song for producers like Will, even low six figures for Swizz Beatz) receiving 3-4% of royalties per track (about 5 cents a song) and half the $0.091 publishing royalties per copy, which are split between songwriter and producer (around $0.045 for each single sold).
