Which artists can I pitch my songs to?

The colorful images on the SongSource grid represent artists for whom Mypart has been granted official permission (by the artists/their label) to collect songs. You may submit your songs to any of these enabled artists.

Do you have a mobile-app?

MyPart currently only supports submissions via laptop or desktop computer. SongSource is not yet mobile-compatible.

What about the artists whose pictures are greyed-out?

The greyed-out images indicate artists for whom MyPart does not yet have official approval to collect songs. However, you may submit an ”invitation” for these artists. Artists who receive a substantial amount of “invitations” will be the ones we next aim to bring aboard to MyPart.

What type of content can I submit to recording artists on MyPart?

You can pitch an original song demo, remix, song lyrics, or a video of you performing your song. The more developed a song, (lyrics + composition/production), the stronger a shot it has of being placed.

Can I upload a song without choosing a specific artist, and instead opt to let MyPart choose the artist?

We believe that you are in the best position to make the artistic decision regarding who should use your songs. This is why we believe you should pitch each song to a specific recording artist. However, if we see that your song is a good fit for any other artist on MyPart, we’ll let you know, and ask your permission to send the song over to them as well.

What does it mean to register me in the PRO?

MyPart provides admin and publishing services for songwriters who are not registered with any PRO. If your song is successfully matched to a performing artist and they are interested in working with you, MyPart will help you register with a PRO ( such as ASCAP or BMI) to collect your royalties.

Do I have to own 100% of my song?

Yes, you should own 100% of any song that you submit. If you co-wrote the song with another songwriter, you must obtain their permission to upload the song.

Can I keep my song on additional platforms (Spotify, Soundcloud, etc.) while it’s still in the process of being reviewed on Mypart?

Yes, however please be mindful that songs that are made public during the submission period could be considered “already released”/covers, which may dissuade the artist to whom you are pitching from using the song.

What kind of songs are you searching for?

We don’t believe in good and bad songs, we believe in the right song for the right artist at the right time. The matching process is subjective, and will depend on the artist’s current needs and requirements.

How should I choose which artist to pitch to?

We recommend listening to recently released albums/records by each of the artists for whom we collect songs, and try to tailor your writing to one of their styles/bodies of work. All artists and their teams have different references. Can you visualize the artist singing your song? If you can, consider pitching your song to them.

What is the benefit for artists/songwriters?

MyPart enables songwriters to pitch their song to artists signed with different record labels. If the artists and their teams are interested in your songs, we'll help you negotiate the best publishing deal for that song. You'll receive royalties and the door will be opened to work on other songs for additional artists. If you’re an artist, yourself, you’ll have the chance to be featured in a song, be signed by a label, etc.

Can I submit more than one song?

Yes, absolutely! We recommend that you submit as many songs as you’d like, as long as it isn’t the same song or a different version of the song that is similar to what was submitted before during the 3 month period of exclusivity.

How do royalties work with MyPart?

If, and only if MyPart places your song with an opportunity, MyPart will have an option to offer you a single song publishing agreement.
