I’d still recommend them for the reputation they’ve build themselves over the years as the most convenient platform for distribution but I’d sure will check the stats myself and compare with their own calculations and again, like I’ve said before on the spot, I hope you do have an accessible Spotify artist page and an Apple one as wellĪpple are highly transparent with their payment so it’s the best by far I see a lot of shie going on lately but it’s mainly due to fake streams and claims are real or not, I see legit successful artists getting impacted by it. Maybe it’s some new year BS ideas they’re trying and maybe feeling too confident to scam high warning artists but I truly believe they shouldn’t take the heat even though they might be responsible for it Maybe the streams went down, or maybe something funky is going on non stop with your distributor I’ll might find an available day to mass produce an album or maybe a few singles to test it out again since I’ve copped their fancy plan even though I run a year long test with BeatStars distribution platform but yeah Now that out the way, my man if you use DK as your distro I’d suggest checking your statistics carefully and compare them with both Spotify stats and Apple artists statsįrom there you’ll get a better idea where the problem is coming fromĭistrokid (sadly) had some issues and a lot of artists got impacted by itįrom “fake streams” to huge payment decreases
That might help quite a lot of judgementsīack in 2017 till mid ‘18 I had the best focus on streaming platforms but a lot has changed and I’m not actively involved in it but I do consider different methods and trying/researching on the go to make it clear You should email them maybe it’s just some lazy bs and they will process your payment soonīest of luck man and let us know what’s up Reasons aside I wanted to give their musicians plan a shot anyways a few days ago but after checking Reddit for their BS I personally highly regret I impulsively got their ‘Musician’ plan man Some can’t distribute with them ever again after that but overall man they were the best release time wise, stats etc. Second thing is man I’ve rocked with DK for quite a few years but lately this post year rebranding I’m glad I’m distributing with BSD man check out other distributors (tunecore etc.)Īfter you hit a certain ‘milestone’ and enter their “VIP” artist list you either see them playing games and emptying your ‘bank’ temporarily claiming your Spotify streams might be manipulated/bottled or some other
My man you’re losing money on the table if you’re distributing solely to Spotify
