You should use a "Work for Hire" agreement. This contract ensures that you will own all the rights to the beat, with no future royalties or claims from the producer.

are there any similar ways to do this without legally making the producer my "employee"?
Case Rating: *
You can use a "Transfer of Rights" agreement instead of a "Work for Hire" agreement. This contract allows the producer to sell you all rights to the beat without being classified as an employee. It should include:
- Identification of both parties
- Description of the beat
- Payment terms (flat fee)
- Transfer of all rights to you
- Signatures of both parties
Is there any other information you need?

It seems like you're looking for a straightforward way to purchase the rights to a beat without making the producer your "employee." Both "Work for Hire" and "Transfer of Rights" agreements can achieve this, but the latter may better suit your needs.
If you have any more questions or need further details, feel free to ask!

under a transfer of rights agreement would i still have to credit them as a songwriter?
Case Rating: *
Under a "Transfer of Rights" agreement, you generally do not have to credit the original creator as a songwriter since you have purchased all the rights. However, it's always best to include a clause in the agreement explicitly stating the terms of credit.
Do you need help drafting such a clause?

is not giving any credits considered fucked up in the industry?
Case Rating: *
Not giving credits is generally not considered "fucked up" in the industry if it's explicitly agreed upon in the contract. However, it's good practice to discuss and agree upon it beforehand to avoid any misunderstandings. If you have any other questions or need further information, let me know!
