Optional tools to support your music career
Rebel Music is built around 100% free music distribution. Uploading and distributing your music to major platforms is always free, with no mandatory fees or hidden costs.
However, some artists need additional support or platform-specific services. For this reason, we offer a set of optional paid services. These services are not required to use Rebel Music and are only available if you choose to request them.
🎵 YouTube Official Artist Channel (OAC)
The YouTube Official Artist Channel helps you unify your music presence on YouTube by connecting your Topic Channel with your personal YouTube channel. This allows you to manage your artist profile, access analytics, and build a stronger brand on YouTube.
Requirements for eligibility
To apply for a YouTube Official Artist Channel, YouTube requires the following conditions to be met:
- You must already have an official YouTube Topic Channel
- At least one release must be delivered to YouTube by an official music distribution partner (Art Tracks)
- Your Topic Channel and personal YouTube channel must use the exact same artist name
Channels that are NOT eligible
YouTube does not approve Official Artist Channels for:
- Empty channels
- Fan channels
- Channels with incorrect or different artist names
- Label or house channels
- Multi-artist channels
- Non-music channels
- Vevo channels
Important note
Final approval is always handled directly by YouTube. No distributor can guarantee approval if the requirements are not met.
To avoid unnecessary issues, we review your channels in advance and confirm eligibility before submitting the request.
Service fee: €10 (one-time payment)
⚠️ Transparency & Artist Protection
These additional services are offered to save you time and avoid mistakes, not to replace platform rules or decisions. Rebel Music cannot override DSP policies, but we ensure that every request is submitted correctly and professionally.
Need help or want to request a service?
If you are interested in any additional service, contact our support team and we will explain:
- what information is required
- whether you are eligible
- how to proceed step by step
Our goal is simple:
free distribution by default — paid services only when you choose them.
⚡ Fast Review & Priority Delivery
Fast Review is an optional paid service designed for artists who want their release reviewed faster and, if approved, sent to stores immediately.
This service does NOT guarantee approval.
It simply means that your release will be placed in priority review, ahead of standard submissions.
✅ What Fast Review includes
- Priority quality control review of your release
- Faster feedback in case corrections are needed
- If the release passes review, it is immediately delivered to DSPs (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, etc.)
- No waiting in the standard review queue
⚠️ Important clarification
Fast Review:
- ❌ does not bypass quality control rules
- ❌ does not guarantee acceptance
- ❌ does not override DSP policies
If your release does not meet platform requirements, it may still be rejected or require fixes — just like any standard submission.
This service only affects review speed, not the final decision.
💶 Price
€15 per release (one-time fee)
🎯 Who is this for?
- Artists with time-sensitive releases
- Artists who want to avoid long waiting times
- Artists who already prepared their release correctly and want fast processing
🔒 Transparency first
Rebel Music remains a 100% free music distribution service.
Fast Review is completely optional and only available if you choose to use it.
