I will fix rejected music distribution and audit your metadata


About this gig
Your release is stuck in "Review" and DistroKid, TuneCore, or CD Baby won't tell you why.
I audit your track titles, artist credits, ISRC/UPC setup, artwork, and metadata against
each platform's actual compliance rules the same rules Spotify, Apple Music, and
distributors use to reject or delay releases.
WHAT CAUSES 90% OF REJECTIONS:
- Generic or all-caps titles ("TRACK 1", "UNTITLED")
- Featured artists listed wrong (in title instead of credits field)
- Explicit content not flagged correctly
- Artwork with text, logos, or wrong dimensions
- Mismatched artist name across profile vs. release
- Missing or duplicate ISRC codes
WHAT YOU GET:
- Full metadata audit (titles, credits, genre tags, release date logic)
- Line-by-line fix list you can copy-paste straight into your distributor
- Explanation of exactly why it was rejected (in plain English)
- Re-submission-ready checklist
I've worked across DistroKid, TuneCore, CD Baby, and major-platform metadata standards.
Send me your rejection email or a screenshot of your release page and I'll tell you
exactly what's wrong usually within the hour.

FAQ

YesI never need your login. Send me screenshots of the rejection reason and your metadata, and I return a fix list.
Can you guarantee approval?
I can't guarantee platform decisions, but I fix every known compliance issue based on the current distributor guidelines the majority of resubmissions pass afterward.

DistroKid, TuneCore, CD Baby, and general Spotify for Artists / Apple Music for Artists metadata standards.
