Wasn’t your song included in this week’s «Outed on Friday!» ? did you  submit it ? If not you can submit your music here! (remember you need to follow us on BlueSky, TikTok and Apple Music/Spotify (artists who don’t follow these rules will always be put in back and will probably never be chosen).

Every week, we turn down multiple song submissions—not because of the music itself, but because the artists fail to follow the submission guidelines. One of the most common oversights? Not having an active BlueSky account, which is a mandatory requirement.
