Horrid experience

Horrid. Musixmatch, at least the free version, is the least user friendly site I've come across other than Microsoft. Full of more bugs than a summer cornfield. No company assistance, just constant redirect to have other users fix their problems. Even basic things don't work or are stuck in an endless loop between pages or site sections. Not even a contact form or bug report. Can't believe they're still in business.

Imagine paying a business to make money…

Imagine paying a business to make money off your intellectual property; that's musixmatch for you!

Not only that, the business even lets you use your free time to work for them if you're a contributor. For free!

They don't answer your questions either when they get too complicated, they just refer you to the artists space, an echo chamber of small artists trying to promote their work to no audience. And where no questions are left answered.

There is no transparency at all, I'm yet to see how I can collect any royalties on the content I provide and there is no way you can get past this business since it's holding a monopolistic position on the market. Yay, great company.

Hi Paul,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

At Musixmatch, we value every contributor and rights holder who helps make lyrics accessible to millions of listeners worldwide. We completely understand your concerns about ownership and royalties. To clarify — if you are a self-published songwriter (without a publisher agreement), it’s indeed possible to register your works with us so that your rights and royalties are correctly managed.

Since this process currently requires manual onboarding for songwriters, please reach out directly to our dedicated team at publishers-support@musixmatch.com. They’ll provide you with the necessary information and contract to get started.

You can also find more details in our Help Center here:

Requires Government ID!!!!!

I’ve used Musixmatch for years as an artist, and I honestly can’t believe the direction they’ve taken. Out of nowhere, they now require a government ID just to verify my artist profile even though I can easily be verified through my official record label, Spotify for Artists, verified email, or even my Instagram account.

This is absurd. Musixmatch already has multiple secure, legitimate ways to confirm identity without forcing artists to hand over personal government documents. It’s invasive, unnecessary, and feels like a massive overreach for what should be a simple lyrics management tool.

Musixmatch, do better. Artists shouldn’t have to trade privacy for access to their own work. Until this policy changes, I'm left helpless and cant even upload my own lyrics to my hard worked songs unless i give my government ID.

Hi Robert,

We completely understand your concern — sharing personal information online can feel intrusive, and your privacy matters deeply to us.

At Musixmatch, protecting our artist community is our top priority. Lyrics and their publishing rights are a vital part of every artist’s career, which is why we take verification so seriously. While we recognize that other forms of verification exist, official government identification is the only way to ensure that your catalog and royalties are fully protected from misuse or fraudulent claims.

This extra step helps us safeguard your intellectual property and ensure that the right people — you and your team — remain in control of your lyrics across every platform.

Thank you for being part of the Musixmatch community and for raising this important point — feedback like yours helps us keep improving how we support artists worldwide.

Best Regards,
The Musixmatch Team

They don't care about their contributors

The website is just extremely frustrating for an average contributor like me. The tools are decent, when they work. But they often don't and feels like a buggy mess.

Just want to sync the lyrics of some songs I enjoy. Spent a lot of time syncing then just got sv flag errors. Retried and same errors and after a few retries the retry button just stop working. The help button leads me back to the page of the song. There's no way to ask for help either from the website.

And even when I successfully submitted it, the contribution history shows I 'added' the song, not 'synced', and the last contribution was years ago. How would I even know if I was successful?

I don't care about getting credit. I don't care about the curator system or making money from transcribing/syncing lyrics. I just want lyrics to the songs I love transcribed/synced. And their system is extremely hostile towards people like me. They just want free labor for their product. Very disrespectful.

Plus they're using AI for transcription, and their AI transcribed lyrics is like, considered the ground truth. They can have obvious mistakes but as a nobody contributor I have no way to correct/challenge it.

Dear Fresky Yang,

thanks kindly for your feedback.

I'm sorry to hear you've been having troubles with the contribution tool. With being able to look into the specific songs in detail, the matter seems to be related to a bug ticket we opened yesterday and which our team is currently working on solving.

Generally speaking, I want to make it clear that we're extremely grateful for all contributors on our platform. For reasons of quality assurance, we're unable to let every contributor edit every song, but our community permissions system ensures that the most active and engaged members receive the greatest contribution powers.

If you wish to gain some of these powers for yourself, we'd love to welcome you into our Curator community.
You can find a guide on how to get there inthis article: https://support.musixmatch.com/en/articles/222334-curators-who-are-they-and-how-can-i-become-one

Musixmatch is an absolute embarrassment…

Musixmatch is an absolute embarrassment to modern technology! Their tech is abysmal to use. Their AI basically does not work or perform as intended, by any stretch of the imagination. I can't believe that Spotify has partnered with them for their lyrics for artists. It's an absolute crime.
