Music Mafia Radio – Independent Artist Submission Guidelines

If you’re an independent artist looking to get your music on the air, here’s everything you need to know. We listen to thousands of tracks every year, and the artists who follow these guidelines make it much easier for us to give their music a fair shot.

Where to Send Your Music

All submissions must be emailed to:

musicmafiaradio@yahoo.com

That’s the only inbox we use for new music. If it doesn’t land there, it won’t be reviewed.

Accepted Audio Formats

We accept the following file types:

• MP3
• WAV
• FLAC
• Links to download any of the above formats

If you send a download link, make sure it goes directly to the file — not a streaming page.

Tagging Your Files

If you’re sending an MP3, please make sure it’s properly tagged with:

• Artist name
• Song title
• Album or single name
• Artwork (if available)

Tagged files help your track display correctly in our system and on listener devices.

Include Your Links

When you submit, include:

Your social media links Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X — wherever you’re active.

Your website (optional) Not required, but helpful. It gives us a better sense of who you are and what you’re building.

What Not to Send

Streaming links alone will not be considered.

Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud — those are great for fans, but they don’t work for radio submission. You can include them as extras, but they cannot replace the downloadable audio file.

What Happens After You Submit

We listen to everything that comes in. But here’s the honest truth:

• We receive over 13,000 submissions a year
• We review them all
• Airplay is not guaranteed

If your track gets added to rotation, you’ll hear from us. If not, don’t take it personally — we simply can’t play everything we receive.

Checklist Before You Hit Send

• MP3, WAV, or FLAC file attached — or a download link to one
• MP3 is properly tagged (if that’s the format you’re sending)
• Social media links included
• Website link included (optional)
• No streaming‑only submissions
• Sent to musicmafiaradio@yahoo.com

If you’ve got all that covered, you’re ready to go.
