Cheryl Potts

Technology & Membership Director

Selected as one of the Top 50 Black Women in Entertainment by Black Noir Magazine, Cheryl M. Potts is delivering on the company’s vision to become one of the leading independent boutique music copyright & royalty administration company in the U.S. market today.   Crystal Clear Music provides copyright & royalty administration and accounting to independent recording labels, music publishers, songwriters, producers and other catalog owners.  The company also provides music/sample clearance, royalty collections and royalty audits on behalf of its clients. 

Ms. Potts first experience in the entertainment business was as Executive Vice President of Well Defined Management, an artist management company.  At Well Defined Management, she oversaw the marketing, publicity and promotion of Well Defined Management artists.   But it was her love of music and the ‘song’ that fueled her to take on the challenge of heading up Well Defined Music, a music publishing company when the founder added publishing to its entertainment group.   This challenge brought her to learn about the music publishing, copyright law, licensing and music clearance to protect their artist’s interests and more.   She handled all of the music administration for the artists/songwriters for the company.  But it was when she took on a well known music administration company over an issue of issuing a mechanical license to a major record company without proper signature and authorization of a songwriter, which she proved and won in obtaining back royalties in addition to getting their future royalties, she knew she had something destined on her hands.
