Adding Artists says can't find artist?

[YoungLam1]

 I am trying to claim my new artist profile under my artist.spotify, and even though I can find it on the drop down menu 

 it keeps telling me this when I try to continue on to setting up and managing

is it cause the verification is failing? how can I verify it is me

what is the problem here?

Please just type spotify:artist:7oHm02PP5wf96E4IAxR0IZ right into the field on the access request page.

Ok so now I have access to the profile, and can edit pictures and stuff. it shows all my music under there 

but in my catalogue it shows nothing? how do i get the songs to show there so i can manage stats. this is so confusing

[Brunelicia]

If you added the songs now, it can take a few days to appear on there. 😉

Ok they were added a few days ago to Distrokid and I just verified my profile so will it take a few days and they should appear on there? thank you so much I been stressing over this

[Brunelicia]

Yes, it takes some time to generate some statistics.
