Some artists, albums and songs are not currently available or may only be available in some countries or regions and not in others.
This is because all content that appears on Deezer is licensed. If something doesn't appear, it may be because the agreements with artists, labels or right holders are still underway.
Ownership rights can also change hands, and, in the case of very old or obscure music, we may have been unable to identify the current rights holder.
Our team is constantly in talks with artists, labels and rights holders to ensure you have access to the largest possible music catalogue. If you can't find an artist or song you are looking for at the moment, check back over time and it may appear.
Request music to add to Deezer
If you'd like to request music to add to the Deezer catalogue, please visit this page.
Many artists make mixtapes freely available online today. For us to share them with you on Deezer, we still need to license them.
Artists provide their music to us through an aggregator. We are happy to provide mixtapes on Deezer, but if a mixtape contains material, such as music samples, audio clips, video clips, and so on, created by someone other than the artist themselves, it is up to the artist and their team to gain permission from all the individual rights holders to use the content.
Note: The same licensing and ownership constraints can also apply to videos and podcasts
