Partnership Announcement
bushido, the exchange revolutionizing music licensing and artist monetization, has announced a strategic partnership with Songstats, the premier music analytics platform, to unlock real-time, cross-platform growth for artists and rightsholders.
With this integration, artists on bushido can now track performance across Spotify, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Apple Music, Beatport, SoundCloud, Amazon Music, Deezer, and Tidal, plus Shazam and Bandsintown—all in real time.
This data fuels Almost Famous, bushido's programmatic cross-platform ad engine, which allows artists to set custom business rules that automatically trigger ads based on smart signals—like playlist adds, viral spikes, chart movement, or regional fan activity.
"With Almost Famous, we're demystifying artist and label promotion by releasing a cross-platform ad engine that responds in real time to an artist's momentum—across all platforms, no middlemen, no wasted spend,"
— Jordan Katz, CEO of bushido
Cracking the Code on Sampling
Beyond marketing, Bushido is also solving one of the music industry's most persistent problems: illegal sampling.
The company's newly launched licensing exchange is a first-of-its-kind, white-label solution that integrates directly into rightsholders' websites. It enables rightsholders to:
- •Preclear subsections of their catalog
- •Set custom sample fees and revenue splits per track
- •Maintain approval rights on a per-use basis
The result: weeks or months saved in clearance time, and a new, passive source of licensing income for catalog owners.
"This is licensing done right. We're giving rightsholders total control while unlocking millions in new revenue. And for artists, we're finally making sampling safe, fast, and frictionless so that remixes, edits and derivative works won't get taken down and artists can breathe new life into legendary songs."
— Jordan Katz, CEO of bushido
The bushido x Songstats integration—and the Almost Famous ad engine—is now live for all Bushido artists and rightsholders.
