The idea of getting paid to listen to music sounds too good to be true. However, there are a few websites that will pay you to listen to and review new music tracks. The pay isn't going to make you rich, but you can earn some decent pocket money by doing something you enjoy - listening to music.

Earnably

Earnably is a GPT (Get-Paid-To) website where you can earn money for completing various tasks like taking surveys, watching videos, and listening to music. They have a section called "Earn from Music" that pays you to listen to and review newly released songs.

Here's how the music program works:

New songs are added to their music library each day. You can choose which songs you want to listen to and review.

Listen to the full song and then provide your honest review and rating about elements like the melody, lyrics, rhythm, and originality.

For each song review, you will earn 2 to 10 cents. The review takes around 2 to 3 minutes to complete so you can earn a few dollars per hour.

Your earnings are paid out to your Earnably account balance which you can withdraw to PayPal or for gift cards. The minimum payout is $5.

The key is to provide thoughtful reviews and not speed through them just for the earnings. Earnably wants genuine opinions to provide to their music partners and artists. If your reviews seem low quality, you may not receive as many music opportunities. But high-quality reviewers can earn extra bonuses and perks.

Overall, Earnably’s music program provides an easy way to earn some money on the side while discovering new music. Give it a try in your spare time and see how much you can earn just for sharing your opinion about music tracks. For an extra reward, make sure to read my blog for more ways to earn with Earnably!

Current

Current is another music app that will pay you to listen and review new songs. They work with music labels and artists to get opinions on newly released tracks to help determine which ones are worth promoting further.

Their music review program works as follows:

You sign up for free and download the Current music app to start earning. The app is available for both Android and iOS.

New songs are added to the app each day. You can choose which ones you want to listen to and review. Most songs are 1 to 3 minutes in length.

Listen to the entire song and then provide your honest rating and comments about the vocals, instrumentals, lyrics, originality, and other elements. Your reviews can be short, around 3 to 5 sentences.

You'll earn 1 to 5 cents per song review. Payments are made via PayPal or you can donate your earnings to charity.

Bonus: For the first 3 months, new members get a 20% bonus on all earnings. The bonus expires after 90 days so be sure to start listening and reviewing songs as soon as you sign up to take advantage of it.

Current aims to provide music fans and aspiring artists with a platform to connect.

Playlist Push

Playlist Push is a music review service that allows independent artists to get feedback on their songs from real listeners like you. In exchange for your reviews, Playlist Push shares a portion of the revenue from the artists with their reviewers.

Here's how their program works:

Sign up for free to become a music reviewer. You must be at least 13 years old to participate.

Artists pay Playlist Push to have their music reviewed by fans and listeners. The songs span all genres like hip hop, rock, country, and electronic.

New songs are added daily that you can choose from to listen and review. Provide your honest feedback on elements such as the melody, beat, lyrics, originality, and what you liked or didn't like about the song.

Earn between 5 to 15 cents per song review. The exact amount depends on the package the artist purchased. Payments are issued monthly via PayPal as long as your balance is at least $10.

For some songs, the artist may also ask some multiple choice questions to get additional feedback. You'll earn extra for answering these questions.

Playlist Push is an easy way for music lovers to earn cash while supporting up-and-coming artists. While the pay isn't substantial, many members find it an enjoyable way to spend their spare time and make a little money on the side.
