WHY LYRICS MATTER

Words outlive the music. They show up in protests, weddings, breakups, and revolutions. Built in by partnership with Universal Music Publishing Group, The Word Dept. treats lyrics as what they've always been: enduring works of intellectual property. Every product honors the songwriter. Every design credits the craft.
