This is where you express the public face of an artist. An artist profile is an opportunity to show fans who you are, what you care about, and make a lasting impression. The content you write here will serve as tags and keywords to guide fans to find and connect with your releases. Genres, influencers, and contemporaries you list here help will categorize your music within music services.
