Tokenized creative rights are shifting from 'artist owns everything' to 'community co-owns the work' — platforms like Sound.xyz and Royal are letting musicians fractionalize ownership into thousands of pieces, meaning a single song can have 10,000 stakeholders instead of three label executives deciding its fate. The math is brutal but beautiful: artists keep 80-90% of revenue splits instead of the traditional 15-20%, and that's not speculation, that's the actual contract structure changing right now.
