That’s fair. Video coming.. and we talked about it a lot on this live stream about half way through as someone asked the difference between DistroKid and cd baby : ru-vid.combT10JvSetFI?si=X8bWSTnFNwQ4irkC
Great video !. However people still need to work on their marketing allthough they can upload endlessly music onto plattforms. This in order to get known by a particular audience or audience in general. Ohterwise they never gonna be heard. The pros of a real record company is that a record company has the big money to invest in for example marketing and merchandise. Nowadays its easy to distribute music, but other topics are left.
This is true and it’s the marketing budget that labels still have that help push the song or songs out there. That playing field I fear with never be level. 🤷🏻♂️

Hey dude. Ahh that’s a shame. I don’t know as I don’t deal with them from a customer service point of view. All I could suggest (which you might have done already) is to go through here and chat to them: support.distrokid.com/hc/en-u Go to the bottom and there is a ‘contact us’ option. It takes you to an AI 🤖 but go through it and you can emend a message there. Sorry I can’t be of more help. Hope you get refunded.
@@ispitfactsregardless7535 Yeah the other platforms only show up on the earnings. Stats are still only counting Spotify but the earnings shows everything
sir can i ask why my artist name cant change in applemusic and spotify even if i change my artist name in distrokid. its been a month but dis not change my artist name in both platforms but in youtube is change already.
That’s a very good question. Have you claimed them both on the platforms? Once you release music you can claim your artist profiles and with that. Change a few things. If it’s not changed then have a look here: support.distrokid.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
@@JohnPaulMusicUK thank you so much sir i realy appreciate you. im always go in your channel if i hav quetion about distrokid. more bless you sir johnpaul. thank you for response.
That’s right, they don’t pay artists. They collect the money from all the places your music is played and store it for you which can take up to 90 days to recover and then you can transfer that money.
Damnn.. that’s not good! Did you have samples or stuff that was copyrighted from somewhere else? Or where plays on playlists where they are paid for? Did you reach out to their support?
