"Sorry, TH-cam is unable to process Official Artist Channel requests at this time. As soon as they're ready to process them again you can do that here. Please check back shortly." Distro Kid said this what do I do
yooo, this is a really helpful vid! One question, I went to the TH-cam official artist channel section in DistroKid and there wasn't the drop-down list of artists to choose from. It currently says, "To get started, upload some music to TH-cam." I uploaded my music to DistroKid last night. I found the topic channel with the music on TH-cam today. How can I fix this? (sorry about the long comment)
@@YaBoyFreak I don’t remember exactly how I did it, but I think it was because I didn’t have 3 tracks uploaded. I could be wrong though, but it did eventually work
It's still not working on Distrokid. Their website says, "TH-cam is unable to process Official Artist Channel requests at this time. As soon as they're ready to process them again you can do that here. Please check back shortly." Did you ever find a solutions to creating a TH-cam Official Artist Channel?
Yo! Thank you for the awesome content, but what is that tool that seems like its giving you constant analytrics on anything you see on youtube? Put us on game 😭😭
hey so I have only one song distributed currently (by Distrokid) but when I search the song it comes up as a Topic on youtube. Is this normal for those who still don't have a minimum of three uploads?
Thanks! Do you also have knowlegde about covers? As far as I know you are not able to make a YT content ID with covers throughout your distributor. But is it possible to make claims to the companies you mentioned in your video on the master audio recording part? I see a consultantcy session is 100$ on your website. But how long does it take and do you have knowlegde about covers as well?
Thank you for all of your help. I got my access through Label Worx but I am having some issues with obtaining the official music icon for my channel through TH-cam. When I write a message in the comments it will show up but it is not showing on my actual channel
I released two albums under united masters. Since I don't have 1000 subs yet, I was wondering if I could do my next release under distrokid and use the link to my topic page so they can put it on the same youtube channel. Maybe then I could claim my youtube page?
Hi.Thank you for this important information. I was wondering if you can have your music linked from multiple distributors to the same TH-cam channel. I ask this because I have distributed my music through Repost (now SoundCloud for Artists) but am about to start using Landr or Tunecore for my new releases. I was under a different artist name and had SoundCloud transfer that to my new name already. I wasn’t planning to move those older songs to Landr because I still like using my SoundCloud for my songwriting promotion and figured to just leave them there despite the 20% they take of streams. I am still newbie so not much coming in anyway. But my new music is a different story. I want this to be set up right from the start before releasing anything else. You input is greatly appreciated. 🙏🏾✨
@@igobyneq i mean when i claimed my youtube artists channel it linked that channel and my current channel which has the same name. and now it says that i am a music channel (music is not my main focus so i don't like this) and only shows me analytics for my topic channel. if you know how to unclaim or unlink my topic channel that would be great
I’d be happy to help. This situation requires me to get more information so if you wouldn’t mind scheduling a call and we can get your issue fix asap www.igobyneq.com/shop/30-minute-music-business-consultation
And here are two big questions ?? If you link your topic artist channel via Distrokid will the views and the subscribers go with it ?? The second question is if you for any reason quit Distrokid and don't go to another Distributer will the songs still remain on your artist channel or they get deleted ??
Unfortunately they discontinued the service. Artists now have to pay the distribution services a fee and/or a precent of their ad revenue to get access.
@@igobyneq ok that makes since then, because it said it was connected but it's not and I noticed under my song it has something for TH-cam as a added service. I think it's like $4.95. thank you for letting me know because I was so confused 😂
hey, thanks so much for this video! I am pretty new to all this stuff, but claiming my other profiles was super easy. youtube and distrokid are giving me a hard time though. I went to the special access tab and tried to link my youtube account, and it was telling me, release music first, despite the fact I have released about 4 albums/eps. does youtube just need time to update or something?
So do you have to already have content on your main TH-cam music account for this to work I’m not talking about the music topics I’m trying to get my music topics merge to my main
Sir i can't claim for OAC for TH-cam..they show me your artist name doesn't match with your TH-cam channel My artist name is LUCKY and my TH-cam channel name is LUCKY And distokid artist name also LUCKY.. many times am change my TH-cam channel handle but every time show artist name doesn't match

How do you link your channel to the distribution channel
Where I come from, we'd call you an absolute legend, thank you
I appreciate that.
Please teach me
I have music distributed but I don’t see the list of artists selection. Is there another way to do it?
Thank you so much for the help!
You’re welcome 💪🏾
Will my subscribers from the topic channel merge in with the other channel or will I have to start over
They’ll merge
Good question I had the same thing
I gotta say, the process is ridiculous as it can get. Nothing simple about it. Every path is a dead end.
Felt the same way
Would you like to purchase a copy of my book to make this process easier?

Why does TuneCore say that my content is copyright after I distribute it?I already have on my TH-cam with the video ,but get hit with a copyright
There could be several reasons, Probably because you used a beat that someone else has
@@igobyneq no but this was after I distribute through TuneCore,I already had it uploaded to TH-cam while my channel is monitized,
What if you already released these songs before creating a youtube channel...will those releases move over to my channel?
Once you claim you TH-cam artist channel all your songs will transfer over
amazing vid you ROCK!! unexpectedly released my 1st song last Friday via DK now in a world of pain navigating ALL THIS HAHAHA. x
goodies is not there for me wht plan do you have
But what if its a featuring song, and that distributor made a ghost account on my name? How can i fix that to my own profile
Reach out to your label or manager to help get you right
Thanks! Do you also have knowlegde about covers? As far as I know you are not able to make a YT content ID with covers throughout your distributor.

So do you have to already have content on your main TH-cam music account for this to work I’m not talking about the music topics I’m trying to get my music topics merge to my main
can you edit the descriptions of the music videos once you have an official artist channel?
No. The descriptions are generated by your distributor
