One of us makes the music. The other has spent ten years working in music rights and distribution. We started LEVR to find out whether independent artists can take home more from the audience they already have.
Saba is a creator, recording artist and business operator who has experienced music distribution from the artist side firsthand. The creator behind @theslurpy, he brings experience running businesses to LEVR's creator experience, pilot design and artist onboarding.
His focus is making the commercial terms, migration process and artist net result understandable before a catalog moves.
At GMI Rights Management, Jaba served as Head of Digital and became a central operator alongside the CEO, helping build the company's digital rights and distribution operation from the ground up. He brings ten years of experience across music publishing, labels, rights management and digital distribution.
He leads the rights, distribution and catalog-operations side of LEVR, complementing Saba's experience as a working creator-artist.
What we’re here for
Make the music. Make it count.
LEVR's current work is focused on distribution for independent creator-artists with an audience, an active catalog and meaningful streaming activity.
Publishing, rights administration, sync, licensing and other catalog services may become relevant later. They do not come before proving the distribution model on real artist net earnings.
Future services earn their place only after the first promise works: make the same streams worth more.
The next step
Don't trust the pitch. Trust the comparison.
Share your artist links and a few catalog basics. We’ll tell you whether a pilot is worth discussing.
