Every day, more than 20,000 singers and a songwriter bringing new music to Apple Music – songs that make our catalog better than the day before.

It is no longer enough just to connect artists and fans, it is about making those connections deeper and more meaningful.” And one of the many ways we help Out in providing context is through the new series Apple Music todaywhere we will pick a new song every day and delve into its story, because we know that each of the 100 million songs in our catalog has its own story.”
