A copied SoundCloud profile can use an artist’s artwork while sending listeners to different social accounts or payment pages. Compare the profile with the artist’s own release links.

Check the artist and release links

  1. Follow the SoundCloud link on the artist’s established website or social profile and compare the exact account URL.
  2. Compare track dates, titles and release artwork with the artist’s announced catalog.
  3. Check the bio’s website and contact links against the artist’s known destinations.
  4. Review comments and reposts for messages that direct listeners to unrelated payment or contact pages.
  5. Investigate copied artwork paired with altered release details or a sudden batch of old tracks on an unfamiliar account.

What to include in a report

  • Profile and track URLs with the time checked.
  • Side-by-side screenshots of artwork, release details and conflicting links.
  • Payment requests or misleading comments, with the artist’s official release reference.
