This feature consolidates essential tools, giving music labels the ability to oversee their artists’ YouTube presence with precision, plan smarter promotional strategies, and grow their audience effectively.

Label Requirements

  • Set up a User Owned and Operated Channel on YouTube for your label. If you don't have one yet, first head to Google and create an account. Afterward, please read Google’s help article for step-by-step instructions on how to create the channel.

  • Be authorized to manage two or more of your artist's Official Artist Channels (OAC). Share the Artist Guide included in this article with your roster so they can grant you the necessary permissions.

Artist Requirements

  • Your channel must be an Official Artist Channel (OAC). For more information on how to create your OAC please read our guide here.

  • Follow the Artist Guide included in this article to grant access and set the required permissions for the label to be able to view the performance data.

Artist Guide (3 Steps)

Grant permission to a manager/label account as an OAC Channel.

2. Click on "Settings" which is located on the left side panel, then click "Permissions" after the pop-up window opens, and finally click "Invite".
