Our Expert Score

78/100

FanLabel is a fascinating hybrid of a rhythm game and a fantasy sports league. Instead of drafting athletes, you're essentially 'drafting' songs and artists to your virtual record label. The core loop involves predicting which tracks will blow up on streaming services. It’s a game of musical insight, requiring you to stay on top of trends and new releases.

The competitive aspect is what keeps it fresh. Daily music contests and the global leaderboard give you a tangible goal to work toward. The fact that you can win real-world prizes like AirPods or artist merch adds a layer of stakes that most music apps lack. While it requires a decent knowledge of the current music landscape, it's also a great tool for music discovery. If you’re the type of person who is always saying 'I knew they’d be famous' before anyone else, FanLabel is your playground.
