Save your personal music collection to your YouTube Music library by uploading your songs and albums. Once your music is uploaded, you can use YouTube Music to play your uploaded music as part of your listening experience.
Upload your music to YouTube Music
How to upload
There are two ways to upload your music. On a computer:
- Drag your file(s) to any surface on music.youtube.com.
- Go to music.youtube.com and click your profile picture
Upload music.
Supported file formats for uploads include FLAC, M4A, MP3, OGG and WMA.
You will see a progress bar indicating that your music is uploading and a confirmation message once the songs have been uploaded. Your uploaded music may take some time to appear in your library, even after it has been successfully uploaded.
Things to know:
