Overview
This asset includes the publishing and songwriting royalties for “4MOTION” by French hip-hop artist Maes, a single-track catalog centered on digital-first consumption.
Earnings are generated across multiple channels. The profile is stream-heavy, reflecting how listeners primarily engage with the song today, while contributions from radio and other non-streaming sources add depth beyond a single listening environment. As is often the case with newer tracks, consumption and cash collection do not always move in lockstep—usage can occur broadly across platforms and territories before all royalties fully settle, allowing income to build over time while payments continue to flow.
At the royalty level, earnings are diversified across performance, streaming mechanical, and streaming performance income types, each contributing meaningfully. This structure enables the same underlying listening behavior to monetize through multiple pathways rather than relying on a single royalty stream.
The catalog also benefits from a higher-frequency payout schedule - eight distributions via ASCAP and two via Beatstars - providing more regular visibility into cash flow than assets with fewer distributions.
Artist & Song Information
“4MOTION” is a 2024 French rap track by Maes featuring PLK, released on Maes’s album LA VIE CONTINUE. Built on a sleek, trap-leaning production, the song emphasizes movement, urgency, and forward momentum. Within the context of LA VIE CONTINUE—an album that performed strongly in France and earned gold certification—the track benefited from the project’s broader commercial momentum. “4MOTION” charted on the French singles chart following release, signaling mainstream traction, and was further amplified by an official music video and consistent streaming presence, positioning it as one of the more visible collaborative moments from the album cycle rather than a standalone awards-driven release.
