It appears TikTok and music distributor DistroKid have taken things to another level. The two powerhouses look to build off past collaborations and will announce an enhanced process for artists.

Now, those millions of musicians who use DistroKid to upload their music worldwide can get seamless access to highly sought-after TikTok Artist Accounts. What once took weeks of patiently waiting is now set up directly through DistroKid profiles within just hours.

Once approved, artists open themselves up to a range of TikTok discovery features. An exclusive Music Tab and prominent placement in the New Release category give more reasons to discover people. Increased depth in profile sections shares Behind the Songs insights with supporters, lets artists connect back to them through Fan Spotlight highlights, and lets commenting pros promote shows via Ticketing features.

DistroKid President Phil Bauer exclaimed about “Building on our long history of collaboration, DistroKid members now have unique access to tools and features for promoting their music on TikTok’s leading discovery platform.” This union of the two titans in the indie music space is sure to fire up the juice that is creators everywhere.

Artists have already seen impact, according to singer NERIAH. She raved about tools really helping promote music and follower growth. It would appear the synergistic benefits of this revved up rapport can’t be overstated.

Since its first deal in 2019, DistroKid and TikTok have tightened those relationships even more. Music entered TikTok ads as part of a commercial agreement. Then, DistroKid tracks populated the beta streaming app TikTok Music across numerous countries. Extra goodies like CapCut editing and DistroVid uploads have been thrown in for good measure.
