I signed with these predators when I first began music they take 50% on your Royals and do nothing to promote it. Would have to be one of the worst deals in music.Im glad that I never ended up pouring my hard earned savings into any marketing with these clowns With Distrokid they take nothing and you get banners and flyers or pre saved links. To the reply below ,the deal i signed was 50/50 on Distribution. This may had of changed since then but that what it was.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with Sugo Music Group did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify an important misunderstanding regarding our royalty structure. Sugo does not retain 50% of standard digital distribution royalties. Our current distribution agreements provide artists and rights holders with 80% of applicable distribution royalties, while Sugo retains 20%. Royalty percentages under older agreements may differ. A 50/50 revenue split may apply to certain synchronization licensing opportunities, which are separate from standard digital distribution. It's also important to distinguish music distribution from music promotion. Sugo provides digital distribution, royalty administration, publishing administration, rights management, and licensing opportunities. While we support artists through these services, we do not guarantee promotional campaigns, streaming activity, or commercial success. Different distributors offer different pricing structures and services, and we encourage artists to choose the arrangement that best suits their needs. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify these distinctions and wish you continued success with your music. Sugo Music Group
