Start with one release.
A writer covering a new track needs to know more than its title. A short, accurate credit note helps them understand who made the recording and how to identify the people involved. Choose one track and prepare the information before you offer it for coverage.
List the essential credits.
Include the artist name as it should appear, the exact track title, release date or planned date, and a link to the recording or an agreed private listening link. Add the songwriter, producer, featured artists and other relevant contributors with their roles. If a detail is still being confirmed, label it as tentative rather than guessing.
Verify names and permissions.
Check the spelling, professional names, roles, and any requested credit wording with the people involved. Confirm who can share the recording and whether any private link has an expiration date or listening restrictions. Do not disclose an unreleased date, collaborator, or personal information without the appropriate permission.
Make it easy to use.
Put the credits in a short, readable note or on a single page with a contact for questions. Include any approved artwork or press image only when you have permission to share it, and identify its creator. If you offer the track before release, clearly state any requested timing and agree on terms with the recipient before sharing; do not assume they have accepted an embargo.
Send it with a reason to listen.
Find a writer who covers music like yours. Pair the credit note with a concise explanation of the track and a link, giving the writer room to form their own view. Accurate details support the conversation and make it easier to correct an error if one appears.
