Song Credits are just the start. We’ll also be rolling out SongDNA, an interactive view that maps out connections between songs, showing collaborators, samples, and covers all in one place. Spotify Premium listeners will see it in the ‘Now Playing’ view as a new way to explore, dig deeper into how tracks are connected, and trace a song’s creative roots. Samples and covers in SongDNA are powered by WhoSampled, which is now part of Spotify. With WhoSampled’s community-built knowledge, fans can dive into the influences behind the music they love, while giving sampled and covered artists fresh ways to get discovered and celebrated.

I agree, no record label needs to know which songs i sampled on my tracks and take me to court -_-

They hardly ever take people to court. If they do it's when an artist is attempt to make money off the song that is sampling a record that they own.

Most times when a song that is using a sample but not making money, it'll either just get taken down, or be unable to upload it to a DSP like Spotify, Apple Music, etc. They can still be uploaded to YouTube, but the person just won't make money off of it from ads, views, etc.

Spotify is anti-hiphop

Bunch of euros who don't give 2 f***s about rap or musicians, the main ones pushing slop and algorithms over art, the main ones trying to phase out artists in favor of podcasters and AI

Them sinking their tentacles into one of the gateways of fans who actually like the culture, sampling, is a bad thing lmaooo

Mind you, one of the people "leading the charge" on the "stop sample snitching" movement is some f***in white guy from Canada who has likened sample snitching to "gentrification"...

The lack of self-awareness is astounding to say the least.

Also the idea of “sample snitching” is the dumbest s*** in the world, grow up

They should be getting their music sampled. We are not in the 80s and 90s where people from poorer backgrounds could only make music through sampling.

Now its just theft

it is over.

Except it’s not

You’re basically telling all the OG producers to grow up. Imagine telling Premo or Q-Tip to grow up lmao

If a huge major label artist doesn’t clear a sample then yeah that’s on them but snitching on underground artists is lame as hell

Man Fruity Loops is here. Premier and Q Tip grew up in a time where it was largely necessary; that time has now passed.

If today the millionaires Q Tip and Premier were stealing samples then thats dumb as hell

I spent hours on this site when i used to search for chops. Was fun to track some of my favorite flips and get inspired to do them differently.

I hate how Spotify has gamified music s***s wack

Why do I need to see who an artist sampled, how much monthly listeners and followers they have, how high they’re ranked amongst other artists, how much streams they get per song, etc.

Way too much transparency imo. Even though it’s the superior product I am an Apple Music loyalist cuz of bs like this
