How do I correctly name my song or release?Updated a year ago

Please make sure each song title is unique, free from overly generic phrases, and avoids extra information. Here’s how to name your tracks effectively:

1. Avoid Generic Titles

Song names like “Track 1,” “Beat 2,” or “Instrumental 3” make it hard for listeners to identify your songs and can cause confusion in music libraries. Instead, choose distinct titles that capture the essence of your track.

2. Don’t Use Names of Famous Artists

Avoid including the names of popular artists, actors, or public figures in your song titles. This can mislead listeners into thinking the artist is involved in the track.

Examples:

• Incorrect ❌: Life is Good (Drake Cover)
• Correct ✅: Life is Good

3. Skip Excess Information

There’s no need to add details like BPM, genre, or “type beat” in your song title. It clutters the name and can make your track harder to search.

Examples:

• Incorrect ❌: On My Soul (122 BPM)
• Correct ✅: On My Soul

4. Avoid Symbols and Unnecessary Parentheses

Using quotation marks, hyphens, or brackets in titles can cause formatting issues and confusion. Stick to clean titles without extra symbols.

Examples:

• Incorrect ❌: “I Like It"
• Correct ✅: I Like It

5. Don’t Include Contact Information

Avoid putting URLs, social media handles, or any contact info in your song or release title.
