Where to Promote Your Music For Free In Nigeria

At EdabyTrends, we understand the struggle of emerging Nigerian artists who are trying to get their music heard. You’ve got the talent, the passion, and the drive—but it’s not always easy to break through the noise. That’s where we come in. EdabyTrends is a platform created to help up-and-coming Nigerian artists share their music with the world—for free!

We offer a place where your music can be heard by a wider audience, but there are some simple conditions you’ll need to follow in order to have your music showcased. Here’s how you can get started and what to expect when you upload your music to EdabyTrends:

1. Eligibility:

At EdabyTrends, we focus on showcasing rising Nigerian artists who are striving to get their music noticed. To participate, we aim to feature a limited number of 20 new artists per month, so space is competitive but fair.

2. How It Works:

Here’s how you can upload your music and get it featured on eT:

Step 1: Promote Others Before You Get Promoted!

To create a sense of community and mutual support, we ask that you stream and share the music of 5 other artists before you submit your request to us. The key part here is to share the music on social media with proof. This not only helps you connect with the artist community but also ensures that you're actively engaging with others, which is a crucial part of building your presence.

Step 2: Share Your Proof and Reach Out to Us

Once you’ve completed the sharing step, you can message us directly on any social media platform. We’re present on all platforms with the same username—@edabytrends. Whether you message us via Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook, just send us a screenshot of the posts where you’ve shared the songs of the 5 artists you supported. This lets us know that you're genuinely engaging with the community and ready to participate.

Step 3: Submit Your Music

Along with your message, send us the following details:

Your artist name

A bio (brief background about you and your music)

Your best song (the track you’d like to showcase)

Links to your profiles (Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Boomplay, Audiomack, or any other relevant platforms)

Social media profiles

Once we receive your submission, we will review it as quickly as possible. If everything checks out and your music fits the vibe of our platform, we will feature you on our homepage and start promoting your track!

Step 4: Homepage Feature and Verified Badge

If your music is selected, you’ll be featured on EdabyTrends' homepage! Here’s what you can expect:

Homepage Feature: We’ll highlight your song and add a special section dedicated to showcasing you.

Verified Badge: If your profile meets the criteria, we’ll add a verified badge next to your name. This badge signifies that your profile has been reviewed and confirmed by us, ensuring that fans can trust the information presented on your profile.

Step 5: Music and Profile Showcase

Your best song will be front and center for fans to listen to. We will also share links to your most important profiles on streaming platforms like Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Boomplay, Audiomack, and others. This is a great way to drive traffic to your profiles and increase your visibility on multiple platforms.

3. How the Featured Artists Are Chosen:

We feature only 20 artists each month, so it’s important to act quickly! However, we also have a system in place to make sure the best content gets the attention it deserves:

Top Songs Stay Longer: Each month, we track which songs get the most clicks and streams. If your song gets a lot of attention, it will remain on the platform for the following month as well, even after the other 19 spots are refreshed. This gives the best tracks more time to be heard!

Monthly Clean-Up: At the end of each month, we clean up the platform by removing tracks that didn’t get as much attention, making room for new music. But don’t worry—if your song continues to perform well, it’ll stay!

4. The EdabyTrends Community:

At EdabyTrends, we are all about fostering a community of Nigerian artists helping each other grow. We believe in supporting one another, which is why the sharing requirement is so important. By engaging with others, you’re not only building a network but also making your own music more visible.

When you submit your track, you're not just getting a free promotion spot on a platform—you’re joining a community of passionate artists who are all looking out for each other and helping each other rise. It’s all about collaboration over competition.

5. What We Do for You:

We give rising Nigerian artists a platform to get their music heard, and we do it for free.

We’ll feature your best song on our homepage, along with links to your profiles on streaming platforms.

We’ll provide you with a verified badge if your profile meets our criteria, boosting your credibility as an artist.

We’ll work hard to get your music in front of people who are excited to hear new Nigerian talent!

6. Conditions and Requirements:

To participate, you need to engage with and share the music of 5 other artists on social media, with proof of your shares.

We’ll feature only 20 artists per month, so you need to act fast to secure your spot.

Your song’s performance will determine how long it stays on the platform, as we will remove low-performing songs each month.
