TLS aims to provide opportunities without requiring traditional long-term label contracts for its independent artist-release model. The specific terms, permissions, and conditions applicable to each release should be confirmed before the artist participates.

For eligible releases under the applicable TLS artist-release model, artists receive 100% of the net YouTube revenue attributable to their release, as defined in the agreed terms.
