Messaging & Communication
Rythme bridges the gap between fans, artists, and managers — creating a more personal, engaged music experience. Whether you're sending feedback, coordinating a collaboration, or just saying thanks, our integrated messaging tools bring conversations to life.

Yes. Artist and manager accounts have full control over their inbox visibility and message permissions.
Inbox Visibility Settings Artists and managers can choose:

🔘 Completely disable messaging
These settings are managed under: Profile > Inbox Settings > Message Permissions
Tip: Use the “auto-reply” feature to greet fans or direct them to your NFT drop, staking campaign, or social links.
Are chats private or public?
Rythme supports two types of communication:
Private Chats
One-on-one encrypted messages between you and another user
🔒 Private only
Public Threads
Available on some artist pages and release drops
🌐 Publicly viewable
Event Chats
Temporary discussion threads tied to live events or drops
🌐 Public / semi-private
All private messages are end-to-end encrypted and stored securely — only the sender and receiver can read them.
Moderators may intervene only if messages are flagged for abuse or spam, in compliance with our platform’s safety policies.
