For Artists For Curators Help Center

Do I have to add tracks to my playlist?

No. You are never required to add a track to your playlist. You are paid for your honest feedback, not for adding tracks.

Editorial independence

Your curatorial judgment is what makes Tunebump valuable. Artists come to us because they want real feedback from real curators. If every track got added regardless of quality, placements would be meaningless.

Add a track only if you genuinely think it fits your playlist and your listeners would enjoy it.

What good feedback looks like

Even when you pass on a track, a helpful review explains why. For example:

  • "The production is great but the tempo does not fit the energy of my playlist"
  • "Not quite the right genre for my audience, but strong vocals"
  • "Added to the playlist — fits perfectly with the current vibe"

Specific, constructive feedback is what artists are paying for. It also keeps your curator rating high.
