We’ve fixed several issues affecting artist profiles and improved the experience when uploading tracks.

Artist Profile Fixes

Verified Badge Now Stays Put

Issue: Some verified artists were losing their verified checkmark after updating their profile (like adding gallery images). Now: Your verified status is preserved no matter what changes you make to your profile. Update your bio, upload gallery images, or edit any other details—your verification stays intact.

Unclaimed Profile Badge Fixed

Issue: The “Unclaimed” badge wasn’t appearing correctly on some artist profiles, making it confusing to know which profiles could be claimed. Now: The unclaimed badge correctly appears on any artist profile that hasn’t been linked to a user account yet. If you see an unclaimed profile that belongs to you, you can claim it to take ownership.

Profile Ownership Detection

Issue: Some artist profiles weren’t correctly recognizing their owner, which affected features like the claim banner and profile management. Now: Artist ownership is properly detected, so you’ll see the right options when viewing your own profile versus someone else’s.

Upload Improvements

WAV Format Requirement

Track uploads now require WAV format. Here’s why this matters:
  • Best sound quality — Your beats sound exactly as you intended
  • Industry standard — The format professionals use for licensing
  • No compression artifacts — What you upload is what listeners hear

Helpful Format Modal

When you try to upload a file in an unsupported format, you’ll now see a clear, helpful message instead of a confusing error:
  • Shows exactly which file was blocked and why
  • Explains the benefits of WAV format
  • Makes it easy to upload a different file with one click
This gives you clear guidance instead of leaving you wondering what went wrong.

What This Means for You

  • Verified artists — Your status is safe when editing your profile
  • Profile claimers — Unclaimed profiles are now clearly marked
  • Uploaders — Clear guidance when file formats need adjustment
