Music Distribution in Zambia

Zed Beats, Zambian hip-hop, Kalindula and Gospel are reaching ears across Southern Africa, and ORB Entertainment helps you go further. Get your release onto Spotify, Apple Music, Boomplay, Audiomack and 150+ stores, pay in Zambian Kwacha (ZMW), and withdraw royalties to your local bank.

Lusaka's sound, on every platform

Zambia's scene is on the rise — Zed Beats and Zambian hip-hop lead the charge from Lusaka, while Kalindula keeps the roots alive and Gospel commands a huge audience. Boomplay and Audiomack are how many Zambian and Southern African fans stream, so ORB delivers to both as first-class stores while taking you global on Spotify and Apple Music.

ORB fixes the payment problem for Zambian independents. Instead of needing a dollar account, you subscribe in Kwacha and your royalties return to you in Kwacha, withdrawn straight to a Zambian bank.
