In 2024 I released four songs to the public. I am, for better or worse, a music artist with an EP released. I am a BMI songwriter.  My songs are registered through BMI.  I distribute my music through Distrokid.

This post, and video following, are my 2024 results from releasing music. With Distrokid as my distributor, I am placed in Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, iTunes Store, YouTube Music, iHeart Radio and a whole bunch more.

Distrokid then collects the data and pays me. As you will see, unless you are streaming in the millions, you don’t get much. So here is my data. If you want to see me talk more about the data, watch the YouTube video from my YouTube Music Channel.
