You can name your tracks exactly how you want! But again, the stores have some rules. Read below on how you can avoid complications when it comes to titles:
Keep it simple! Avoid extra information in the title if you can
Do not add the featured artist or the original artist if your song is a cover
Titles that do not comply with store-specific metadata guidelines may be changed or rejected. Ensure your titles meet these requirements to avoid complications.
Do not add the name of the artist in the release title (such as "My song by XYZ").
Avoid including the artist’s name in the title to maintain consistency across platforms, as required by store guidelines.
Do not add the recording year
Try avoiding adding special characters
Refrain from including bracketed text or non-standard notations, such as "[Free]," in titles.
Don't add emojis or symbols
If you have a featuring artist, the name should be added in the contributors' field.
If it is a remix, it should be added as a version (read more about it here)
For French titles on Apple Music, use sentence case as required. If you prefer a different capitalization, you can request to exclude Apple Music from your release.
No transliterations (translations in the title) are accepted. A track cannot, for example, be called “Mi Vida / My Life”. It can either be called "Mi Vida" or "My Life".
Do not use Generic Titles. For example, Titles such as "track 1" and "track 2", or an album called "Album", or "Demo".
Avoid using generic terms, descriptive phrases, or search keywords in titles. Examples of disallowed terms include genres, musical descriptors (e.g., "beat/type," "Hz/BPM"), or phrases like "tracks for sleeping."
We suggest not to use generic terms as they are not always accepted by the stores
Some information may be added to the title: Intro and Outro are OK in the title when in brackets. For example, My Flower (Intro)
If a track has different versions (radio edit, Extended version, etc.), feel free to add a version in the app when uploading, but not in the title (read more about it here)
Descriptors like "Instrumental" should be added to the Version field rather than the main title to comply with metadata guidelines.
Can the titles have explicit words? Yes, they can, but iTunes and Apple Music might censor them with ***. We don't censor titles
For covers, always use the original song title exactly as it is - no edits, translations, or tweaks
