Help build Music With a Mission. Our first priority is hiring qualified legal counsel.
I'm Jamar Davis, the producer behind Yahmiir. Through Miir Logistics, I’m building a recurring music program that brings established recording artists and music professionals together to release original music and support community work over time. We’re raising $890,000 across all Music With a Mission pages combined for the first-year plan. The first priority for campaign funds is qualified legal representation to put contracts, spending controls and revenue rules in place before we make major artist commitments.
How the Mission Works
I develop the instrumentals, lyrics, melodies and arrangements under the Yahmiir brand. The music already on Yahmiir.com includes AI-assisted recordings. We plan to match selected songs with skilled human performers, approach established artists through authorized representatives, and work with their labels where required. The first funded year allows for up to six proposed collaborations and original releases, subject to financing, rights clearance, interest and signed agreements. For each release, we’ll agree on rights and payments, track revenue, report results and repeat the process as funding permits. Today’s contributions help build the legal and professional foundation; eligible future music revenue is the intended source of the charitable share.
Legal Foundation
Qualified entertainment counsel, with charity and fundraising compliance expertise, is our first priority. Counsel will help establish contracts, spending approvals, rights, accounting and the rules for distributing revenue. Before committing major funds to artists, we need written agreements, cleared funds and approvals for the specific project. Performer fees will be negotiated song by song. Ownership or licenses, royalties and credits will be documented separately.
Charity Roster Application
We plan to invite charitable organizations to apply for a roster for future releases and community projects. We’ll verify eligibility, confirm how funds would be used and require written terms and reporting before selecting a recipient. The roster is not open yet. Applying would not guarantee selection or payment.
Community Partnerships
Community centers and local organizations could identify needs, connect residents with services, host listening events or share approved releases and updates. Partners can help without becoming funding recipients. Communities seeking support can propose needs through a participating organization once the program is operating. We’ll agree on roles and use names, logos and stories only with permission.
Professional Opportunities
Counsel comes first. We then plan to work with accountants, royalty administrators, producers, engineers, session professionals, distributors, promoters, managers and label representatives as work is funded and approved. Expressing interest does not create a contract or job.
Artist Collaborations and Recognition
We aim to match songs with performers who can deliver them substantially as written where feasible. Artists may receive a negotiated recording royalty or ownership interest, in addition to any agreed fee. Composition credits depend on authorship and applicable agreements. Supporters can suggest artists once nominations open; a suggestion is not a booking or endorsement. We’ll credit and recognize collaborators only as authorized. No established artist, label, attorney or charity is announced as a confirmed partner.
Financial Transparency
We plan to report combined campaign receipts, fees, spending and milestones. Campaign contributions are tracked separately from music sales and royalties. Single sales, full album sales and streams are distinct. Before advertising a specific charitable benefit, we’ll disclose the eligible release, recipient, share, calculation basis, permitted deductions and timing. We’ll separately report actual distributions. Contributions support business development through Miir Logistics and do not buy royalties, ownership, repayment, artist access or a guaranteed release. They are not represented as tax-deductible. Existing store purchases are commercial sales. The personal housing appeal is separate.

The $890,000 gross goal supports this operating estimate. Fees and usable proceeds depend on actual payouts. The legal allowance is a planning estimate, not a quote or a separate goal. Community-benefit setup is not a grant pool. The conditional artist reserve models six possible $50,000 engagements; it does not establish anyone’s rate or promise any booking. The previously modeled $245,000 and approximately $3.11 million cases remain separate planning alternatives, not additional goals.

Under FundRazr’s Optional Tips pricing model, the platform fee is 0%; payment-processing fees still apply. The itemized amounts are planning allocations, not guaranteed net proceeds. We will report actual fees, combined project receipts across channels and any remaining funding gap before committing to work that available funds cannot cover.
