What can you do in the BTR Music app?

BTR Music is built to make music listening more active. Streaming is the foundation, but it is not the end of the product.

• Stream full tracks. Listen to full music tracks across the sounds and scenes supported by BTR.
• Discover new music. Find artists and tracks through discovery surfaces rather than relying only on searches for music you already know.
• Follow artists. Keep artists you care about closer to your listening experience.
• Build playlists. Save, organise, browse and share collections of tracks.
• Explore charts. See music moving across genres, sub-genres and countries.
• Vote in Track Battles. Listen to two tracks and make the call.
• Scout music early. Build a history of tracks and artists you found before they moved further.
• Explore local scenes. Use geographic signals and events to see music culture closer to where it is happening.
• Add friends. Connect with other BTR Music listeners and artists.
• Create Crews. Private music-first spaces for sharing tracks, playlists, artists and events.
• Message artists. Where available, artist and fan interaction can happen inside the same ecosystem as the music.
• Support artists. Participating artists can use direct fan products including Tips, Superfan, Backing and Shoutouts.

What music is on BTR Music?

BTR Music is not designed around one genre.

The app supports music across hip-hop, rap, drill, trap, Afrobeats, Amapiano, R&B, dancehall, Latin and electronic music, with additional genres and sub-genres available throughout the ecosystem.

Electronic discovery also extends into sounds including house, techno, drum & bass, jungle, garage, bass, breaks, trance, global club and leftfield music.

BTR Music's broader aim is to let genre, sub-genre, location and listener behaviour all contribute to discovery.

The BTR Music app is built to find what comes next

Search is useful when you already know what you want.

BTR Music also focuses on the opposite problem: what do you listen to when you do not know what you are looking for yet?

Drop Roulette

Drop Roulette is a blind-discovery format. Hear the music before artist identity, artwork or existing attention becomes the first thing shaping your opinion.

Scout

Scout lets listeners make an early call on music they discover. Instead of discovery disappearing into a recommendation history, it can become part of the listener's activity.

Power Charts

Power Charts surface movement across different parts of the platform rather than assuming one universal ranking represents every music culture.

Track Battles

Track Battles make discovery participatory. Listen to both songs, pick one, and contribute to what moves.

Music with people around it

Music has never been purely solitary.

People send songs to friends. They argue about records. They discover artists through other listeners. They meet at events. They follow scenes and communities.

BTR Music brings more of that behaviour into the music app itself.

Friends and Crews create spaces for sharing tracks, artists, playlists and events. Chat allows music to move directly into conversation.

Artist relationships sit inside the same ecosystem. A fan who discovers an artist can follow them, interact and — where the feature is available — support them directly.

How is the BTR Music app different?

BTR Music is designed around a combination of streaming + discovery + community + artist access.

The objective is not simply to create another play button. It is to make the space around music — discovery, scenes, people and artists — part of the listening product.

Can artists get music on the BTR Music app?

Yes.

Independent artists can join the wider BTR ecosystem through Beats To Rap On.

The artist-facing platform is separate from the consumer BTR Music app but connected to the same wider ecosystem.

Artists looking to join can visit BTR Music Artist Signup.

Professional music distributors, record labels, catalogue owners and rights holders use the separate BTR Music Distribution Partnerships route.

BTR Music, Beats To Rap On and the BTR name

Beats To Rap On is the artist-facing platform within the wider ecosystem.

In this context, the initials BTR stand for Beats To Rap On.
