I have a friend who is an up and coming artist releasing their first few tracks and the amount of scams/snakes (obviously not everybody) on Spotify curator sites like Submithub or Playlistpush where the curator just basically asks for money for a placement, what happened to the actual quality of the music?
We are going to have a strict no-payment for placement policy regardless of how much they would hypothetically offer. We want to give the artists at least some power to get heard and organically grow through the playlists.
The main concept is we have a four playlists setup with the following guidelines:
A. songs with under 1,000 streams
B. songs with 1,000-9,999 streams
C. songs with 10,000-99,999 streams
D. songs with 100,000-999,999 streams
As the artist grows, they tier up, they can grow up to the top of the playlist, it can form a community of up and comers, collaborations, and an opportunity for hip hop and music lovers to discover and be a part of potentially the next big thing (which can be an incredible feeling!). We will follow the metrics closely and continuously update the playlists and can provide an incredible organic experience when they "level up" to the next tier of the playlist!
Let me know what you guys think of the concept and if you have any artists in mind that are looking for opportunities to actually grow through Spotify playlists without all the bots bullshit or shelling out money to BS agencies, feel free to share with them and would love to hear their feedback as well. Feel free to DM here or if you prefer email, you can catch me at submissions@roarkrecords.com
