Who we are

YHL Media (YourHitList Media) is a music marketing and artist services company

Our Services

YHL Media provides the following services, each of which may be governed by an additional service-specific agreement, scope of work, or statement of work agreed with you before work begins:
• Branding strategy and artist development, including branding education
• Paid media management across Snapchat Music Ads, Instagram Ads, YouTube Ads and Google Ads
• A&R services, including playlist pitching, feature and collaboration sourcing
• UK events and club circuit bookings and promotion
• Royalty collection facilitation for African-market artists
Where these Terms conflict with a signed service agreement or statement of work for a specific engagement, the signed agreement takes priority.

Eligibity

Our services are intended for artists, managers, labels and industry professionals aged 18 or over. By engaging YHL Media, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement, or that you have the permission of a parent or legal guardian acting on your behalf.

No Guarantee of Results

YHL Media provides marketing, promotional, A&R and facilitation services. While we work diligently and draw on genuine industry experience and relationships, we do not and cannot guarantee specific outcomes, including but not limited to:
• A specific number of streams, followers, views or engagement from any advertising campaign
• Playlist placement, feature opportunities, or acceptance by any curator, label or artist
• Any particular booking, event outcome, or audience size at a live event
• Any specific financial return, chart performance, or career outcome

Results in the music industry depend on many factors outside our control, including audience reception, platform algorithms, and third-party decision-making. Our commitment is to professional effort, transparency and strategy — not guaranteed outcomes.

Paid Advertising Services

Where YHL Media manages paid advertising campaigns on your behalf (Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube, Google), the following applies:
• Ad spend budgets will be agreed with you in advance and are separate from our management fees, unless otherwise stated in your service agreement
• Campaign performance depends on third-party advertising platforms, whose policies, pricing, and algorithms we do not control and which may change at any time
• We will provide reporting on campaign performance at intervals agreed with you
• You are responsible for ensuring any creative assets, music, or content you provide for advertising do not infringe on the rights of any third party

Royalty Collection Support

YHL Media facilitates royalty collection for African-market artists by connecting them with licensed payment and royalty collection partners, to help address international payment and banking restrictions that limit access to earned royalties.
• YHL Media acts as an intermediary/facilitator and does not directly hold, custody, or guarantee client funds
• You are responsible for providing accurate banking, mobile money, tax and identity information required to process your royalties
• Processing times, fees and requirements are set in part by our third-party payment and collection partners and are outside YHL Media’s direct control
• A facilitation fee, calculated as a percentage of royalties processed at 10%, applies to this service and will be disclosed to you before you engage it
• YHL Media is not liable for delays, losses or errors caused by third-party payment providers, banking systems, or inaccurate information provided by the Artist

Events & Bookings

Where YHL Media arranges or promotes live event bookings on your behalf:
• Event dates, fees, and terms will be confirmed with you and the relevant venue or promoter in advance
• YHL Media is not responsible for cancellations, changes, or issues caused by venues, promoters, or circumstances outside our control (including illness, travel disruption, or force majeure events)
• You are responsible for your own travel, accommodation, and performance-readiness unless otherwise agreed in writing

Fees & Payment

Fees for our services will be set out in your service agreement, invoice, or package confirmation. Unless otherwise agreed:
• Invoices are payable within [30] days of the invoice date
• Late payments may result in a pause of services until payment is received
• Retainer-based services renew on a rolling monthly basis unless cancelled in accordance with Section 10
• All fees are quoted exclusive of VAT/applicable tax unless stated otherwise

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, YHL Media’s total liability arising out of or in connection with any service shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to YHL Media for that specific service in the [three (3) months] preceding the claim. YHL Media shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, or special losses, including loss of profits, loss of opportunity, or reputational harm, arising from our services, save for liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law (such as death or personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud).

Cancellation & Refunds
Cancellation and refund terms will be specified in your individual service agreement. As a general policy, unless otherwise agreed in writing:
• Retainer-based services may only be cancelled by either party if the services have not been carried out and must be a written notice
• Fees already paid for work completed, campaigns already launched, or ad spend already committed are non-refundable
• One-off packages (e.g. branding strategy, A&R placement packages) are non-refundable once work has commenced, unless required by law

Intellectual Property
You retain full ownership of your music, brand, name, likeness and any content you provide to us. By engaging YHL Media, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive licence to use your music, name, image and promotional materials solely for the purpose of delivering and marketing the agreed services (including, where relevant, showcasing our work on our own website and social media, unless you opt out in writing).
Any branding strategy documents, ad creative, or campaign materials developed by YHL Media as part of a paid engagement become your property upon full payment, unless otherwise agreed.

Client Responsibilities
• Providing accurate, complete and timely information required to deliver services (including for royalty collection, campaign targeting, and event bookings)
• Ensuring you own or have the rights to any music, image, or content you provide to us
• Responding to requests for approvals, feedback or materials in a timely manner, as delays on your part may affect campaign timelines or outcomes

Third-Party Platforms
Our services rely in part on third-party platforms (including Snapchat, Meta/Instagram, YouTube, Google, streaming services, and payment providers). We are not responsible for outages, policy changes, account suspensions, or algorithm changes made by these third parties, though we will act reasonably to adapt strategy where such changes affect your campaign or service.

Confidentiality
Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public business, strategy, or financial information shared during the course of the engagement, and to use it only for the purposes of delivering or receiving the agreed services.

Termination
YHL Media reserves the right to suspend or terminate services if a Client breaches these Terms, fails to make payment, or engages in conduct that is unlawful, abusive, or damaging to YHL Media’s reputation or business. Sections relating to fees owed, confidentiality, intellectual property and limitation of liability shall survive termination.

Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Nigeria. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of our services shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Nigeria, save where mandatory local consumer protection law provides otherwise.

Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our services or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent version. Continued use of our services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
