🎧 Why Sonic Scout Radio Is Not Payola – And Why That Matters to You

Hey there, artist!
We know how important it is to understand where your music is going — especially when money is involved. So let’s clear something up right away:

Sonic Scout Radio is not payola.
Here’s why that’s a big deal — and why you can trust us with your music:

🔍 We’re transparent — not shady.
With payola, artists pay money to get secretly slipped onto playlists without anyone knowing. At Sonic Scout, everything’s upfront:
A presenter who believes in your music, reaches out to you and you get real airtime. No backroom deals. No mystery.

🎙️ We empower artists — not industry gatekeepers.
Payola helps major labels push the same few artists over and over. Sonic Scout exists for unsigned and independent artists.
You're not paying to “win” a slot — you're investing in exposure on a 24/7 platform built to showcase emerging talent like yours.

💸 You keep control. We help you grow.
You’re not signing away your rights or giving up control. We help you reach new listeners through curated radio shows that highlight your music, not bury it.

📑 We track your song — so you can get paid.
Every track aired is meta-tagged and reported monthly to royalty organizations like BMI, ASCAP, and SOCAN. If you're registered, you’re eligible to collect airplay royalties.
Payola? No tracking. No royalties. No artist respect.

🌍 You’re joining a movement — not a scam.
Sonic Scout is creating a new kind of radio. One that’s transparent, legal, and fair. You’ll be heard by real listeners globally, and more. And you’ll be featured by presenters who truly care about the music.

Bottom Line:

You’re not “paying to play” — you’re investing in real exposure on a platform that’s built to amplify unsigned artists like you.

If you’ve got more questions, reach out anytime — we’re here for it.
