A music career, one week at a time
From open mic to number one
You're 18, with $1,000, a part-time job and a notebook of ideas. Write, record and release songs, play shows, sign a deal or stay independent, and climb the charts. Rapper or singer, seven genres, one career that is yours.
One-time Pro upgrade · no forced ads
Write · record · release
Write to what's hot, cut the demo in your bedroom or a top studio, and pick your moment. Rush your releases and your listeners tune out.
Sign or stay indie
Majors bring radio and big playlists. Indie deals and going it alone keep more of your money. Every offer shows you the math before you sign.
Chase the charts
A Top 100 and a Top 25 for every genre, packed with 90 fictional rivals. To get on it, your streams have to beat theirs.
Tours, fans, trouble
Open for a bigger act or headline your own tour. More than 80 events, from hecklers to label drama, and every choice has a cost.

Hitladder is free to play. Hitladder Pro is a one-time purchase: a sandbox start, up to five careers at once, poster colors and career stats.
Cash packs are optional and they can't buy fans. Ads bring listeners, not followers, and the charts only count organic listeners.
