For artists

Your page, your tracks, on the site's own player.

Artists can register, publish a profile immediately, and keep up to 100 saved tracks: singles, or an album and EPs with their own shared cover. You decide what is published, and there is no approval queue. Two things stay separate here: editorial stories are chosen and written by the desk and are never paid for, while an artist-paid homepage placement is a distinct promotion that only the desk can set and that is always labelled Sponsored.

Launch your artist page

Free · self-service

  1. Step 01

    Profile, photo, bio

    Create your page with a stage name, a profile image and a short bio. Save it and it is live.

  2. Step 02

    Add your music or official players

    Publish your own MP3s, or point to your official music and video players. Outbound links outside those players are not shown as a player.

  3. Step 03

    Share the public page

    Copy your page link and a short caption from your dashboard. Nothing is posted for you.

Create an artist accountApply for an interviewOne profile per account. No approval queue.

Step 01

Create an account

Sign up with an email and password. One account holds one artist profile, and only you can edit it.

Step 02

Publish your page

Add your stage name, a short bio, your city, an image, and links to your own channels. It goes live as soon as you save, with no approval step.

Step 03

Upload singles, an album, or an EP

Singles publish straight away. An album or EP takes a multi-file upload queue and one shared cover, and stays a draft until you publish it. MP3 only, 50 MB per file, checked by the server after upload. Up to 100 saved tracks, 30 per album or EP, and 20 projects.

Step 04

Publish, pause, remove

You choose whether each track is published. Published tracks play in the site's own player on your artist page straight away.

Upload terms, in plain language

Read this before uploading. It is the whole agreement for artist uploads, and it is deliberately short.

Your recording You publish MP3, 50 MB 100 tracks
  1. 01

    You must have made the recording, or hold permission from everyone who owns it. Uploading someone else's music is not allowed, and the account can be closed if it happens.

  2. 02

    You give New Hip-Hop Releases a non-exclusive licence to host and stream the track on this site. You keep ownership, and you can unpublish or delete it at any time.

  3. 03

    Publishing is immediate and under your control. There is no approval queue: your profile and your published tracks appear on your artist page as soon as you save them.

  4. 04

    The editorial desk can still unpublish or remove content after a copyright report, and the reason is shown on your dashboard. A takedown is not a copyright ruling.

  5. 05

    Each artist page holds up to 100 saved tracks and 20 albums or EPs. MP3 only, 50 MB per file, with no transcoding: upload the file you want played.

  6. 06

    Uploaded audio and images sit on a public file link, so the site cannot prevent anyone from saving a copy. There is no DRM here, and no download protection is claimed.

  7. 07

    No automatic copyright checking happens. The site does not fingerprint audio, and publishing a track is your claim that you have the rights to it.

  8. 08

    A homepage feature is a separate paid promotion. It is never part of editorial coverage, it is always labelled Sponsored, and it is set only by the editorial desk.

Promotion

Homepage placement is separate, and paid

Editorial picks are chosen by the desk and are never for sale. A homepage feature is a different, clearly labelled thing: a Sponsored placement with a start and end date, set only by the editorial desk.

Price is not configured yet, so no placement is being sold. A sponsored placement runs seven days, requests can be sent to the desk with the form below, and there is no checkout.

Homepage feature

Request a homepage placement

Price: not configured · Duration: 7 days

This is a request, not a purchase. No payment is taken, checkout is inactive, and no placement, timing, or ranking is promised. A paid homepage placement runs for a fixed seven-day term once the editorial desk books it, and paid placements are always labelled Sponsored.

What an artist account stores is described in the privacy statement. Editorial coverage is chosen separately and is never paid for — see the editorial policy.
