Most blogs don't give you a step by step on how to submit music to them, I feel like it will make both of our lives easier if I do that. Lets get into how to submit both as an artist and as a fan. The requirements for artist are there to help you present yourself professionally. I ask fans to answer certain questions to help artists see who their fans are and what's working for them.
There are 2 ways to submit; the traditional way and the easy way.
THE TRADITIONAL WAY
Artists
Send an email to thesharchive@gmail.com with "Artist Name - Song Name [Submission]" as the Subject. The body of the email should include:
- A short artist bio (150-200 words)
- (optional) A short description of the song
- A few photos of the artist (1-5)
- YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal Links (Official music videos are preferred over lyric/artwork videos)
Note: If your music is not on all streaming outlets required, submit as a fan. Any missing info can result in a declined submission.
Fans
Send an email to thesharchive@gmail.com with "Artist Name - Song Name [Submission]" as the Subject. The body of the email should include:
- Why you like the song
- (optional) A short bio (Name, Age, city and/or state and social media handles)
- (optional) Your backstory with the artist (Do you know them personally? Is this the song that made you a fan? Have you been a fan for a while or are they new to you?)
- YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal OR SoundCloud links (Official music videos are preferred over lyric/artwork videos)
Note: Only one link is needed, feel free to include as many as you'd like.
The Easy Way
Artists & Fans
Go to dailyplaylists.com and follow the instructions to get your song ready for submission. Make sure hip-hop is selected as your genre and search for "New Gospel Rap/R&B" or "sytE's collection" and submit.
You'll know the playlist is mine if it says "by sytE" under the playlist name.
