An artist or an artist’s legal representative or manager can apply to verify an artist's profile.
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.
You can follow these steps:
1) Register or sign-in on Musixmatch Pro (please be sure to use the email associated with your artist, label etc, when you set up the account. The use of a different email can cause a delay in the verification process)
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
Please keep in mind that the artist verification process may take up to a few working days.
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?
If you have a Pro Premium plan, please contact us via the Messenger and we will help you sort this out.
If you have a free plan, both profiles will be required.
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.
What if the artist has already been claimed?
To prevent false claims and ensure that only rightful owners can access their artist profiles, we do not permit the claiming of artists that have already been verified.
If you are affiliated with a label, it's possible that this artist has already been claimed by your colleagues. Since our paid plans offer workgroup functionalities, you can reach out to them to request access to manage the roster.
It often happens that the artist was already claimed by you while using a different account. For example, you used the same email, but you logged in with Google the first time and with Facebook the second time. Each login method is linked to a different account, even when using the same email address.
