How to put an acapella over an instrumental?

Is it illegal to put a different instrumental on an acapella?

  • Answer:

    Without a license, yes. You would need to get permission to create a derivative work from the rightsholders of both songs, and both recordings. Many artists release various tracks with such licenses attached (such as Jay-Z's 2003 The Black Album), but it's up to the rightsholders to decide whether to offer this or not.
