Amazon Music for Artists

Amazon's artist portal: profile control, Alexa request data and streaming analytics across Amazon Music tiers.

Best for: Profile control and Alexa request data, free. Every artist with music on Amazon Music who needs profile control, platform analytics and access for managers or other team members.
Skip if: This is never worth skipping if you have music on Amazon Music.
First move: Claim the profile using distributor authentication or connected official socials, then audit the catalog for mixed-up releases and add current profile and background images.
Watch out: Only images are fully self-service. Artist names, release metadata and credits usually require distributor corrections; bios go through Xperi/TiVo, and lyrics through Musixmatch or LyricFind. Catalog fixes can take four weeks, and release pitches become ineligible 14 days after release.
Reach: Established
When: Useful from day one.
