"Synced lyrics are only submitted to Instagram/Facebook" says DistroKid :/ Why they stopped sending synced lyrics to Spotify and Apple Music? Huge disappointment :(
How to get your plain lyrics instead of writing them out?It will take to long to write a song out,how would I go about this how did u get your plain lyrics?
For some reason even if I sync them, they don't end up on Instagram or even Spotify.. Been almost a month and they say it takes up to a week. Any suggestions? Great video btw!
Same here... and there’s literally no way to contact them anymore because they just keep directing you to their faqs section which doesn’t help at all...smh
Hello. How long does it normally take for Distro Kid to provide the synced lyrics on Spotify? 6 weeks later after editing the lyrics still is not synced. What can I do?
i just wanna stay right here forever, forever in your arms... banger!! love that second chord in the drop. definitely unexpected and beautiful. didn't know about this distrokid feature. thanks for the tip! definitely gonna do this for my future releases and update my past ones.
Dude, thank you so much for the compliments on my song! I’m glad you dig it. Yeah, this is a great feature they’ve rolled out. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I had a release back in may and uploaded my plain and synced lyrics way before the release and they were all approved, it’s been half a month and still no lyrics on any platforms.. any advice?
A 3-4 month pay cycle is pretty standard for streaming royalties no matter who you use as your distributor, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. And I'm afraid I don't know much about the tax withholding. Maybe it's because I live in the US so I just haven't paid that much attention to it. I have had to put in my tax information a couple of times though. I'm going to dig into that more and see what's what. Thanks for the comment!
@@tomdupreeiii Many thanks Tom for taking out the time to reply. Appreciate it. There is this video from Dan where he talks about it = ua-cam.com/video/DJ37xsNd9X4/v-deo.html . There is also rumours that they dont pay the right amount for the number of streams attained. Not sure if u have heard of that...........I am sitting on the bench not understanding which Digital Distributor to sign up with...
@Ronald Jose Dude, of course! This is very interesting. I hadn't heard that about the streams either. If you're on the fence about which distributor to go with, my two favorites are DistroKid and Amuse. Now, obviously it sounds like DK is probably out for you, so I would highly recommend taking a look at Amuse. They have a great free tier, and their Pro tier is a very fair price in my opinion. Plus it's a flat rate with no add-ons per release or anything like that. Might be worth checking out for you. Hope that helps!
great help - not sure but does apple music also cover spotify?
Yeah, I think it pushes to Spotify as well.
does the lyrics go on spotify as well?
Yes, they should!
@@tomdupreeiii thanks im doing them rn
Artists Unite !!!!
💯💯
New follower here for informative vids. Thank for covering this topic.
You bet! Thank you for watching!
Can the lyrics upload be done before the songs hit the platforms ?
I believe so as long as you upload it far enough in advance!
"Synced lyrics are only submitted to Instagram/Facebook" says DistroKid :/ Why they stopped sending synced lyrics to Spotify and Apple Music? Huge disappointment :(
Well, that's a bummer. I hadn't noticed they changed that since making this video.
How do you now sync them to apple music?

I have synced a few of my songs before but now when I press click to play, nothing happens :/
Hmm. That’s weird. May be a glitch on their end.
For some reason even if I sync them, they don't end up on Instagram or even Spotify.. Been almost a month and they say it takes up to a week. Any suggestions?
Great video btw!
Yeah I've had that happen too. I just kept redoing it until it showed up.
so doing this will sync them to apple music too? Its only on my instagram/facebook at the moment
I did all the steps and everything is green but the lyrics dosen't appear for over 2 months now.
Man, that’s frustrating. I’d reach out to DistroKid and see what’s up. I don’t know why that would be the case.
Same here... and there’s literally no way to contact them anymore because they just keep directing you to their faqs section which doesn’t help at all...smh
Hello. How long does it normally take for Distro Kid to provide the synced lyrics on Spotify? 6 weeks later after editing the lyrics still is not synced.
What can I do?
I've had it take some time before. Reach out to them or upload the lyrics again.
Having the same issue here. Did you get yours fixed?
Hi, great video, but why only Instagram & Apple Music I don’t understand why not Spotify etc ??
I know that it doesn’t work but I don’t understand why
i just wanna stay right here forever, forever in your arms... banger!! love that second chord in the drop. definitely unexpected and beautiful.

Maybe try uploading them again?
My sync lyrics are check mark green but still no show on instagram
Try going through the process again, or you can go through musixmatch directly.
Great videos man! Thanks for all the helpful tips 🤘
Dude you bet! Thanks for watching!
does file format matter?... my music is all in mp3 but when I wanna start doing the synched lyrics, the music doesn't play.
I always recommend using a high quality WAV file.
this time I uploaded a wave format audio but still the same problem
Your spy fire too g looks
How can I get my music on Instagram music if the tape already out
What plan is the synced lyrics
I’ve found this will sync my synched Leyrics for Apple Music, but it’s been almost a month and the song will play on Instagram but no synched lyrics?
Hmm... that's interesting. Maybe try uploading them again?
Same things as mine.
@@khanlifadc still no lyrics and sometimes it tweaks when I search my name too. I guess I’ll try reuploading my lyrics again
Yes, I have the same problem. I did the synced lyrics but they don't appear on Instagram
@@ProdbyTrehnt Was the problem eventually solved or do you still don't have them?
Are the lyrics synced in Apple Music?
great video and advice !!
Thank you! I’m glad it helped!
Thanks for this video. Cool Song TD3
Hey thanks for watching!
BS, been waiting months for lyrics to show up on instagram
Maybe try uploading them again??
None of my lyrics are in social media been waiting forever
Man. Bummer. Maybe try musixmatch?
Hey Tom, I heard they are taking 4 months to pay ur money and they are withholding 30% tax for non US folks....Lots of bad publicity on You Tube?
A 3-4 month pay cycle is pretty standard for streaming royalties no matter who you use as your distributor, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. And I'm afraid I don't know much about the tax withholding. Maybe it's because I live in the US so I just haven't paid that much attention to it.
