Hello 

Activate and update your artist profile on Spotify: The first thing you must do, in order to be able to join a playlist on Spotify, is request access – if you don't already have it – to your Spotify for Artists account. If you use CD Baby to upload your music to Spotify, you will have access to claim your Spotify profile using our Spotify for Artists tool in your CD Baby account dashboard (Tools & Promotions → Tools → Request Access to Spotify for Artists) This will verify your artist profile on the platform and allow you to edit your profile. Learn all about spotify for artist. Once you have access, you must update all your details if you want to be considered for entry into playlists. Make sure: Add a profile picture Attach a photo in the header Type your bio (see how to write a bio that will stand out). Add photos to gallery Connect your social networks Use the “artist choice” function (see how here) Pitch on Spotify for Artist First, what is a pitch? Pitching in the playlist world means recommending or making your music known to publishers. It's about giving them as much information about your music as possible, from the genre to the inspiration behind each lyric. That's why it's a very important part of this process, so write a good pitch text! Since 2018, Spotify has allowed all artists to make this pitch from their Spotify for Artist app or website. You just need to fill in the form they present to you. I recommend not skipping any section, as the more information you share with them, the more opportunities they have to be heard. Some important tips and relevant information: Preferably, fill in the form in English.
