What helps Afrobeats releases

  1. Deliver to Boomplay alongside Spotify and Apple Music — it is one of the most used streaming apps across Africa.
  2. Tag the right sub-genre (Afropop, Afro-fusion, Amapiano) so editors and algorithms place you correctly.
  3. Add Instagram & TikTok so creators can use your song in Reels and videos — that is where most Afrobeats hits start.

Questions

Can I release a song with Pidgin or Yoruba lyrics?

Yes. Pick the main language of the lyrics when you upload; stores use it to recommend your song to the right listeners.

How do I get paid if I live in Nigeria or Ghana?

Earnings are in US dollars and you can withdraw to PayPal, Payoneer, Wise or an international bank account.
