What happens to an artist’s music when they change record labels?
In: 29
There is no long complicated answer here.
Everything about music depends on who owns the master recordings (and other rights like distribution).
In many cases the music stays entirely with the label because of this ownership. In other cases there are other deals.
Even a lot of money is not a guarantee an artist retains control.
Taylor Swift is a good example of this since Taylor Swift money wasn’t enough to reacquire her back catalog.
