## Content

## In Short
InterSpace Distribution has joined the third volume of the Josplay Rise Fund as a distribution partner. The Rise Fund is Josplay’s funding and visibility programme for independent African artists.

## What Happened: How InterSpace Distribution Joined Josplay’s Rise Fund
Josplay announced the partnership on 11 November 2026. The programme opens on 16 November.

Volume 3 is open to independent artists from any African country. There is no entry fee. Entry is through a completed Josplay artist profile with at least one original release live on the platform.

The campaign runs for about twelve weeks. It starts with an open entry period, then a public leaderboard stage, then a shortlist. An editorial panel then chooses the winners.

Prizes include cash awards for top finishers, plus editorial and marketing support, a mentorship session with a senior music executive, and distribution support. Josplay says it will publish the full entry rules and prize structure at launch.

## Why It Matters: Ownership And Royalties For InterSpace Artists
InterSpace says artists who enter keep full ownership of their music, their brand, and their likeness. It also says any prize money is paid directly to the artist.

InterSpace says royalties are unaffected. Streams earned on Josplay and other platforms will continue to be collected and paid through InterSpace on the same schedule and the same terms.

InterSpace says it will share entry details with the artists and labels on its roster when the programme opens. It also says it will support participating artists through the campaign.

InterSpace says the two companies have worked together since 2025, when InterSpace’s catalogue was integrated into Josplay’s digital service platform.
