Inside the Lamar structure

Creation and administration, kept deliberately separate.

Two entities, two jobs. Together, they take a project from a first session to a registered, royalty-earning release.

Bac Pay & West End Production

Create and prepare the music

Recording, production, mixing, mastering, artist development and release-asset creation.

Lamar Music Group

Release, administer, protect and monetise it

Label services, distribution, rights registration, royalty accounting and catalogue management.

"Bac Pay helps create the music. Lamar Music Group helps release, administer, protect and monetise it."

How we operate

Core principles.

Transparency

Clients understand how their music is administered, how income is calculated and what fees are deducted.

Creator Control

Creators retain ownership where appropriate, granting LMG only the rights required to perform agreed services.

Accurate Administration

Metadata, ownership, splits, registrations and royalty records are maintained precisely.

Written Agreements

Rights, obligations, fees and ownership arrangements are always confirmed in writing.

Professional Accountability

Organised records, clear reporting and proper payment procedures throughout.

Long-Term Value

Music is treated as intellectual property — a commercial asset built to earn over time.
