ORB Entertainment Launches Platform for African Artists

ORB Entertainment has officially launched its digital music distribution platform to support independent African artists in releasing music globally, managing their careers, and retaining control over their earnings. Founded by Oluwaseun Ridwan Bamiro and headquartered in Lagos, the platform provides access to over 150 digital music services, including Spotify, Apple Music, and TikTok.

It addresses barriers faced by independent musicians, such as high entry costs and limited access to distribution infrastructure. Artists can start with a free plan, and ORB charges no commission on royalties, allowing musicians to retain 100% of their earnings.

The platform enables artists to upload recordings, manage metadata, and select digital stores through one interface, with a review process completed within 24 hours. ORB aims to expand its presence across more African markets and develop additional services for artists.

Bamiro stated that the goal is to empower African artists to build sustainable careers without losing ownership of their work.
