Why Genre Selection Matters?

When creating your artist profile, choosing the right genre might seem like a small step — but it actually makes a big difference. Here's why:

1. Reach the Right Audience

Listeners often discover music by genre. If you label your songs with the genre that best reflects your sound, you’re more likely to connect with the right people who will truly enjoy your music.

2. Improve Recommendation Accuracy

Platforms like Playary use genres to recommend tracks to users. Choosing the right genre helps your songs get suggested to relevant listeners, leading to more plays and exposure.

3. Define Your Artistic Identity

Selecting a genre is part of defining who you are as an artist. It helps new listeners understand your style and gives you direction in shaping your creative path.

4. Organize Albums & Playlists Better

Genre-based organization makes it easier for both you and your listeners to navigate albums and playlists. It also increases your chances of getting featured in curated playlists.


🎯 Bottom line: genre selection isn’t just a formality — it’s the key to reaching the right ears.
