If a song you have written is performed in public or on TV you are entitled to a fee.

You get a small fee every time the song is played or - in the case of a play you wrote - every time it is performed. This is also called residual income because it comes in long after you do the initial work.

When you copyright a song is that the same as ASCAP?

No. If you write something, you automatically own the copyright to your work (unless you have previously assigned it to someone else). However, copyright is just the first step in being able to collect royalties from your work. Performance-rights organizations like ASCAP, BMI and SESAC are (ostensibly) in the business of collecting royalties from the live performance or playback of copyrighted music (in public venues, on radio, television or on the internet) and distributing the royalties that they have collected to the composers and publishers, proportionally to the size of the audience and the number of times the music is played.

Who pays musician for recording royalties?

Recording royalties are typically paid to musicians by record labels or music publishers. When a song is recorded and distributed, the label collects revenue from sales, streaming, and licensing, then allocates a percentage to the artist based on their contract. Independent musicians may receive royalties directly from digital platforms or distributors if they manage their own releases. Additionally, performance rights organizations may also handle royalty payments for public performances of the music.
