Unsong Music is a music distribution and artist development company dedicated to helping independent artists build sustainable careers on their own terms.

We believe independent artists deserve access to meaningful support from the earliest stages of their careers, not only after they’ve built momentum.

We combine digital distribution, A&R support, artist marketing, creative direction, brand management, digital strategy, playlist pitching, and more to help artists build momentum faster, grow their fanbase, and navigate the music industry successfully.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between the opportunities available to independent artists and those available to artists signed to traditional record labels.

Your music will be available on major stores within 1–10 days after submission.

You can also select a custom release date to align with your marketing plan.

Yes! Unsong Music will provide you with access to your sales dashboard.

You can easily track how your music is performing, including sales, streams, and earnings, all in one place.

Yes! With the UNSONG PREMIUM plan, artists who don’t distribute through us can still access our other services.

Simply apply for the plan, complete the form, and select the service you’d like us to provide.

Our team will review your request and be in touch shortly.

If you’re subscribed to the UNSONG PRO plan, our A&R team will evaluate your release and, if approved, pitch it to DSPs for editorial playlist placements.

Approval by our A&R team does not guarantee placement on editorial playlists, as playlist curators independently decide which music aligns with their playlists' themes and audiences.

To give our team enough time to review and pitch your music, please upload singles at least 30 days before the release date, and EPs or albums at least 45 days in advance.

Unsong Music offers three tailored plans, each designed to support independent artists with varying needs and career goals:

UNSONG ROOKIE – At ₦24,900/year, this plan is designed for artists who want digital distribution only.
It offers unlimited releases per artist, free release links, and the option to upgrade to UNSONG PRO as your needs change.
UNSONG ROOKIE artists retain 90% of their streaming royalties, while Unsong Music takes a 10% commission.

UNSONG PRO – At ₦44,900/year, this plan is designed for artists who want more than digital distribution. You are assigned a dedicated A&R Manager, and your releases are evaluated for editorial playlist pitching to Apple Music, Spotify, Audiomack, and other platforms. Having a dedicated A&R Manager means having an experienced partner throughout your journey with Unsong. Whether you’re making creative or business decisions or dealing with technical challenges, you’ll have an industry professional by your side to offer guidance and practical support.
You will also receive an independent artist kit at major milestones: 2 million, 5 million, and 10 million streams (terms and conditions apply).
UNSONG PRO artists keep 80% of their streaming royalties, while Unsong Music takes a 20% commission.

UNSONG PREMIUM – This invite-only plan offers bespoke royalty splits per artist, alongside other services including Artist Marketing, Playlisting, and more.

Having a dedicated A&R Manager means having an experienced partner throughout your journey with Unsong. Whether you’re making creative or business decisions or dealing with technical challenges, you’ll have an industry professional by your side to offer guidance and practical support.

Your A&R Manager can provide support in areas such as:

• Creative direction

• Release strategy

• Marketing guidance

• Technical support

• Career advice

So you’re never left to figure it all out on your own.

The Independent Artist Kit includes creative tools such as headphones, wireless earbuds, Bluetooth speakers, studio equipment, content creation gear, and other essential items curated to help you create your best work.

You unlock these items as you achieve significant milestones: 2 million, 5 million, and 10 million streams.

Only UNSONG PRO artists are eligible for this kit.
