Important Notes

  • There are other distributors out there, but based on my AI music experience, these two have been the most reliable and creator-friendly.
  • Always read the fine print if you choose another provider — especially regarding AI-generated audio, rights, and payouts.
  • Policies for any platform can change, including BandLab and DistroKid. Stay current.

If you prefer full guidance instead of shortcuts, continue below for the complete drop workflow.

The 5-Step Drop Path

This is your entire workflow. Keep it simple. Keep it moving.

1. Make Your Song

Use Suno AI to generate your track. Try two versions, pick the one that feels right, and don’t overthink it.

2. Create Your Cover or Visual

Use Canva or Leonardo AI to design a simple cover or looping visual.

3. Prepare Your Release Info

  • Song title
  • Artist name
  • Cover art
  • Short description or caption

4. Publish Your Track

5. Promote Your Drop

  • Post your visual
  • Use your own sound on TikTok, Reels, or Shorts
  • Tell people why you made the song
  • Share your link everywhere

Beginner FAQ: Distribution, Promotion & Copyright

1. How do I release my AI songs on major platforms?

Upload through DistroKid or BandLab Distribution for delivery to Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, Reels, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, and more.

2. Can AI-generated music be legally distributed?

Yes — as long as the tool (like Suno paid tier) grants commercial rights.

3. Do I need a mechanical license for covers?

Yes, unless your distributor handles licensing automatically (DistroKid does). AI voice imitation of real artists is not permitted.

4. Will Spotify or Apple reject AI music?

Only if it violates copyright, impersonation, or metadata rules. AI itself is allowed.

5. How do I get my song into TikTok / Reels / Shorts?

Use a distributor that includes social delivery. Afterwards, your song appears as a selectable sound.

6. How do royalties work?

You earn normal royalties — AI does not reduce payouts when rights are granted.

7. What copyright mistakes should beginners avoid?

  • Unlicensed covers
  • Copyrighted artwork
  • Imitating real artist voices
  • Copying melodies or lyrics
  • Incorrect metadata

8. Do I own my AI-generated music?

With Suno paid tier, yes — you own your audio output.

9. Can I sell AI music on my own site?

Yes. You can sell downloads, licenses, or use tracks inside digital products.
