Mark a track Explicit if it contains strong language, sexual content, or references to drugs or violence that would typically carry a Parental Advisory label. Stores use the flag to filter content for younger listeners and some regions.
Guidance
- Mark each track individually; a release is considered explicit if any track is.
- A "clean" edit should be a separate track marked not explicit, with "Clean" in the version field.
- Do not add "Explicit" or the Parental Advisory logo to your artwork or titles — the flag handles it.
Incorrectly marking a track is a frequent correction request because platforms verify it during their own review.
