About HyDistro

A home for independent artists in Africa — and beyond.

HyDistro is a music distribution platform built for artists in Africa and beyond — a single place to release music, manage royalties, and grow a real, sustainable career from your catalog.

01 Our Mission

Distribution shouldn't be the hard part.

We built HyDistro around one idea: distribution shouldn't be the hard part. Upload your music, and HyDistro takes care of getting it onto every major platform — audio and video — while giving you the tools most distributors treat as an afterthought: transparent royalty splits with collaborators, a real-time wallet with multi-currency support, detailed analytics, and a direct line to support when you need it.

02 What You Get

Everything an artist actually needs.

01

Distribution

Releases go out as singles, EPs, or albums, across major streaming platforms, with support for music video distribution too.

02

Royalty splits

Set up and manage splits with collaborators directly on the platform, so everyone gets paid correctly and on time.

03

Wallet & payouts

Track earnings in real time, across multiple currencies, with clear, on-platform withdrawal tools.

04

AI mastering

Professional-grade mastering built into your release flow, no separate software or engineer required.

05

Artist tools

Cover artwork generation, promo card creation, smart links, and a bio-link page to bring your whole presence together in one place.

06

Funding

Advance funding options for artists who need capital against future earnings.

07

Playlist pitching

Get your new releases in front of curators and playlists that matter.

08

Support that actually helps

A real knowledge base, live support, and an AI assistant that can answer questions about your account, your releases, and your earnings, any time.

03 Who We Are

Built by an artist-first team.

HyDistro was built by people who understand that African artists have been underserved by distribution platforms built for other markets — with pricing, currencies, and payout methods that don't reflect the reality of building a music career here. We built HyDistro to close that gap: real tools, real payouts, real support, without the friction.

Founded by an artist, for artists

HyDistro was founded by Pius Dilibe, a Nigerian music entrepreneur also behind Hypexclusive — built from firsthand experience of what independent artists actually need.

20+ local currencies

Accept payments and withdraw earnings in over 20 local currencies worldwide — no card headaches, no painful conversion fees.

Real, fast support

Live support and a knowledge base built to actually answer your questions — not just point you to a contact form.

Join independent artists across Africa and beyond who are already distributing, collecting, and growing with HyDistro.
