The Upload Process
How to upload Reggae music.
Start in your BeatsToRapOn artist workspace. Submitting a recording does not make it public until the applicable review and approval stages are completed.
Build Your Profile
Sign in or create a BTR artist account. Add a recognisable artist photograph, a real bio and your consistent stage name.
Upload + Classify
Open the track workspace, upload your audio and custom cover, enter the title and credits, and pick the closest eligible genre.
Review + Share
Submit your track. Once it is approved and published, open its public page and share that actual release link.
Already mastered the song?
Start with up to 10 track uploads in total on a free artist account. Review rights, artwork and metadata before publishing.
BeatsToRapOn + BTR Music
Two sides. One music ecosystem.
BeatsToRapOn is the artist-facing place to prepare and manage releases. BTR Music is the connected listening destination. A direct BTR upload is not delivery to unrelated streaming services.
A Real Track Page
Present reggae music under your actual song title, artwork and artist name instead of relying on an unlabelled audio file.
Music Uploads →Genre Discovery
Choose the accurate sound category so eligible listeners can explore relevant music. Discovery and chart placement are not automatic.

Approved, published tracks meeting profile, cover and mobile requirements can be available on supported iPhone and Android devices.
Explore BTR Music →Direct Fan Products
Eligible artists can access supported fan products such as Superfans, Tips, Backers and Shoutouts. Product and earnings conditions apply.
Artist Features →Artist Tools
Work on production, mastering, metadata and promotional content with BeatsToRapOn's wider creator services.
Music Mastering →Quality Matters

Reggae Artist Guide
Finish the sound. Release it properly.
Reggae encompasses roots, lovers rock, dub and many contemporary fusions. Offbeat rhythm and bass-led movement connect these sounds, but the songwriting, arrangement and cultural context of each style deserve accurate presentation.
Let the bass carry without masking
A reggae master depends on controlled low frequencies, clear skank guitar or keyboard and space for the vocal. Test the track at different volumes.
Credit the players and producer
Where a band, session player or producer contributed, record the right credits and ensure the group has authorised the final release.
Differentiate roots, dub and lovers rock
Use the relevant BTR subgenre and write a precise description. A dub version with studio effects is not the same recording as a roots vocal single.
Make artwork and profile authentic
Give the release its own cover rather than leaving the default image. Keep the artist bio current and add a recognizable photo.
Your upload page should describe the music you actually made. A polished cover, legitimate credits and consistent artist identity matter more than stuffing unrelated music genres into the title.

Reggae Release Strategy
Upload the track. Give it a reason to travel.
A successful release needs more than a link. Your audio excerpt, metadata, track art and message should all describe the same song. For reggae, these details make a practical difference:
Put the song’s message first
A lyric, melody or instrumental bass moment gives the audience a reason to explore the full track.
Choose the right reggae listeners
Roots reggae, lovers rock and dub can appeal to overlapping but distinct listeners. Use honest tags and a relevant music catalogue link.
Keep a durable artist destination
Once approved, share the track page and connect related songs through a clear artist identity.
For preparation and promotional assets, explore the song key and BPM finder, free BPM analyzer and music promo maker. These tools do not change track eligibility or guarantee an audience.
Reggae Upload Questions
Know before you upload.
Can I upload a reggae band recording?
Yes, if you have permission from the necessary rights holders and the recording meets BTR content requirements.
Can I upload an original dub version of my track?
Yes, where you hold the rights to the source stems, composition and master or have permission to create and publish that version.
Can reggae fusion songs be uploaded?
Yes. Use the closest available genre classification, and describe any dancehall, Afrobeats or R&B crossover accurately.
Is uploading music to BeatsToRapOn free?
Yes. A free artist account currently allows up to 10 track uploads in total, subject to content review. Artist Pro provides unlimited track uploads and additional features under the current plan terms.
Does uploading to BTR put my song on Spotify or Apple Music?
No. BeatsToRapOn is the artist platform and BTR Music is its connected listener service. This is not delivery to Spotify, Apple Music or other outside streaming services; use a separate distributor if needed.
Will the song automatically appear in the BTR Music mobile app?
No. Approved and published songs may appear in the iPhone and Android app when they satisfy the applicable profile, artwork, content and mobile eligibility rules. Uploading is not a guarantee of placement.
Do I keep ownership of my music?
You retain the rights that you lawfully own. You must have the required rights and permissions for third-party vocals, samples, beats, artwork and recordings. Review the BTR Terms for the licence needed to host and play content.
Can I earn money from these uploads?
Qualifying streams and supported direct-to-fan features may generate earnings for eligible artists under the BTR Payment Terms. Streams, views, chart positions and uploads are not guaranteed income.
What file and cover artwork should I prepare?
Prepare a high-quality finished audio file in a format accepted by the current uploader and an original square cover; 1000 × 1000 pixels is a useful artwork target. Check the live workspace for accepted file types, upload limits and current requirements.
How long does it take for music to go live?
Review and publishing times vary. Check the track status in your artist workspace, then share the public release URL only when it is approved and live.
For a general walkthrough, visit upload music online. For a continuous DJ recording, see upload DJ mixes. Review BTR Terms and Payment Terms for the applicable rights and payment requirements.
