How do I know if I can use these songs?
Heya, I am not sure if I am allowed to use certain songs as background music. I know it is copyright free but I am not certain if that includes a paid course too.
The artist is "Lakey Inspired". I am planning to use multiple of his songs and also credit him in some way
Many thanks!

Hey there! adpworkforcenow Lakey Inspired’s music is generally available under a Creative Commons license, which often allows for free use, including in commercial projects like paid courses, as long as you provide proper credit.
To be sure, check the specific license terms for each track you plan to use. You can usually find this information in the track’s description on YouTube or SoundCloud. If in doubt, reaching out to Lakey Inspired directly is a good idea.
Here’s an example of how you might credit him:
