Top publishers for R&B and soul

You can send your track directly to publishers through Groover. Browse the list, select publishers that match your style (neo-soul, contemporary R&B, alternative soul), and submit your music. Each publisher listens and responds within 7 days.

Publishers look for strong songwriting, unique vocal style, and production quality. They want artists who fit their catalog, whether that's smooth neo-soul, emotional contemporary R&B, or experimental alternative soul. A clear artistic vision and professional presentation help you stand out.

Publishers focus on your songs and compositions, not just recordings. They handle sync licensing, royalty collection, and placements in film, TV, and ads. Labels release and promote your music. Many R&B and neo-soul artists work with both to maximize opportunities.

Send your best track with a short, personal message. Mention why you chose that publisher and how your sound fits their catalog. If you make neo-soul or alternative R&B, highlight what makes your style unique. Keep it direct and professional.

You get guaranteed feedback within 7 days. Publishers may share your track, offer publishing deals, or give advice on your sound. Not every pitch leads to a deal, but you always get a response. If they don't reply, you get your credits back.
