Dream Big. Get Noticed.

 

100K Distribution isn’t an open-upload platform.

 
We work with artists who are serious about growth, understand investment, and are ready to be evaluated at an industry level.

 
By distributing through 100K, your music enters a system backed by and aligned with EMPIRE’s standards, data tracking, and professional infrastructure — not a self-serve upload site.

  

Our Mission: Build Artists That Last

100K Distribution exists to help independent artists build sustainable careers, not just release songs.

 
We focus on:

• Quality control

• Market data

• Long-term strategy

• Realistic growth plans

 

Distribution is the foundation — not the finish line.

 

No Sign-Up Fee — But There Are Standards.

 • Your music must meet EMPIRE’s quality and compliance standards

• You must be willing to invest in yourself as an artist

• Distribution is not guaranteed without passing review

 
This ensures our catalog remains professional and competitive.

 

How 100K Distribution Handles Your Releases

 

100K Distribution is built to support serious artists like a label, without taking control of their music. While our self-serve upload system is being developed, releases are currently managed via email.

This process ensures your releases are handled professionally, helping you build a strong reputation in the industry while growing with 100K Distribution.

Required Market Test (New Artists)

 

Before full rollout, all new artists must complete a Market Test:

 
• 3 songs submitted for testing

• $25 per song (marketing + data evaluation) (other fees may apply.)

• Used to measure engagement, audience response, and readiness

 
This data allows us to:

• Identify strengths and gaps

• Determine realistic growth potential

• Build a custom investment plan

 
This is not a “pay to upload” fee  it’s a strategic test used to show you results of marketing and promoting at a small level.

 
Artists must commit to their plan to remain in distribution
