My Release Got Rejected for a Title Formatting Issue. WASSUP?

Streaming Services don’t accept song titles that contain:

  • Too much extra information
  • Strange things in parenthesis
  • Odd punctuation
  • Dates or years
  • Primary artists listed also as featured artists
  • URLs, contact information, social media names, or streaming service names.
  • “Official” within artist names

Here are examples of song titles that look incorrect:

  • Track 1 – Stairway to Heaven
  • Billie Jean (performed by Michael Jackson)
  • “Sad But True” by Metallica
  • Beyonce – Crazy In Love ft. Jay-Z
  • Money For Nothing 1984
  • Honey I’m Good (122 BPM)
  • Forgot About Dre (Hip Hop)
  • I’m High (Drake Type Beat)

Here are examples of those same song titles that look correct:

  • Stairway to Heaven
  • Billie Jean
  • Sad But True
  • Crazy In Love (feat. Jay-Z)
  • Money For Nothing
  • Honey I’m Good
  • Forgot About Dre
  • I’m High
