The updates include a new verification badge, expanded song credits, and a tool to prevent releases from appearing on the wrong artist profile.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.spotify.com\/2024-09-17\/verified-by-spotify-badge-launch\/\">Verified by Spotify<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>Verified by Spotify<\/strong> badge signals that an artist profile has passed a review process confirming its authenticity. Criteria include sustained listener activity and engagement, compliance with platform policies, and a recognizable presence both on and off <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spotify.com\/\">Spotify<\/a>. Human reviewers apply these standards, and at launch more than 99% of artists that listeners actively search for received the badge. The majority of those verified are independent artists spanning various genres, career stages, and regions.<\/p>\n<p>All artist profiles, whether verified or not, will also receive a new Artist Details section. This area surfaces career milestones, release history, and touring updates to give listeners additional context about the artist.<\/p>\n<h2>SongDNA<\/h2>\n<p>SongDNA surfaces the creative contributors behind a track directly in the Now Playing view for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/interspacemusic.com\/blog\/spotify-reserved-ticketing-launches-for-u-s-premium-users\/\">Spotify Premium<\/a><\/strong> users. It displays writers, producers, composers, and engineers, as well as samples, interpolations, and cover versions that shaped the song. Eligible artists and label teams can review and manage their SongDNA information through <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/interspacemusic.com\/blog\/spotify-launches-direct-video-uploads-for-artists-in-beta\/\">Spotify for Artists<\/a><\/strong>, giving them a direct role in how their work is presented.<\/p>\n<h2>Artist Profile Protection<\/h2>\n<p>Misattributed releases, whether caused by metadata errors, common artist names, or deliberate manipulation, can distort an artist&#8217;s catalog and listener data. Spotify is addressing this with Artist Profile Protection, currently in beta in select markets. The feature allows artists to review and approve releases before they appear on their profile. Combined with existing content mismatch reporting, it provides both proactive and reactive safeguards for artist profiles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Spotify has launched three
