How to add and verify an artist profile on Musixmatch Pro?

Updated this week

An artist or an artist’s legal representative or manager can apply to verify an artist's profile.

If a representative or someone else has already claimed your artist profile, you can still regain access. Here’s how!

It can happen that we need to do further investigations in order to authorize you to manage the artist profile. If you claim to be the manager or affiliated with a record label, but does not possess the corresponding email address, always CC the label or the artist in the email.

Anyone found not to be the legal representation will be removed from the platform and/or legal actions will be taken based on our T&C’s.

⚠️ In the verification process, ensuring catalog consistency across platforms is crucial.

Before sending your claim, make sure to have an accurate and complete music database on Spotify and Apple Music.

You can work with streaming platform support teams or your distributor to correct these misallocations.

You can follow these steps:

1) Register or sign-in on Musixmatch Pro

Using the official email address linked to your band, group, or agency's representation adds credibility to your profile claim and ensures smoother account verification processes.

2) Go to Musixmatch Pro and click on the "Roster" page and click on the "Add artist" option on the top left of the page

3) Search for your artist by name and submit the request

If you cannot find it with the name, you can also provide us the link.

Insert the Spotify and Apple Music ID for the new artist you want to verify and submit your request. Please keep in mind that the artist verification process may take up to a few working days.

What if I only have a Spotify or an Apple Music artist profile, and not both?

We recommend having artist profiles on both Spotify and Apple Music for smoother verification and faster distribution of your lyrics. If you don’t have both, don’t worry—our support team will be happy to assist you with the process.

What if my request does not get approved?

You will receive an email explaining to you why and giving you further instructions.

Please read the instructions carefully and take the necessary actions before submitting it again.
