RapCaviar via MusicPromoToday
Originally created and run by Tuma Basa, RapCaviar is Spotify’s largest Hip-Hop playlist with a following of over 10 million users. Today, the playlist is no longer in the hands of Tuma but now is organized by Spotify editorial team members who have essentially lowered the standards of their music submission. In this day and age, MusicPromoToday has exclusive plugs and contacts to get you a spot on the RapCaviar playlist. Our specialists are very particular and pay attention to uniqueness, creativity, and originality when picking music to send to our contacts at Spotify for RapCaviar. If any of these categories describe you as an artist and if you think your sound will impress our team, check out these simple steps you can follow to catch the attention of MusicPromoToday and to get your music on one of Hip-Hop’s hottest Spotify playlists.
Be Strategic With Your Releases
In many cases, getting noticed on Spotify doesn’t take too much work. Some artists think that they need a one hit wonder or just one flaming hit to make the cut on Spotify. However, in most cases it’s quite the opposite. Having more releases where you can show the editorial team that you’re a consistent producer of your craft is what is most appealing to both MusicPromoToday and Spotify editors. The more releases you accumulate, the better chance you have to generate the algorithms when a new release hits Spotify. Simply ensure that you don’t disregard quality, move as quickly as you can, and work hard to release a top of the line record.
