The 100 Percenters Launch T.O.P Network, Expanding Into Media With Debut of T.O.P News

The 100 Percenters today announced the launch of T.O.P Network, a new media platform dedicated to amplifying the voices and expanding the visibility of music creators with a specific focus on songwriters.

​

The network debuts with its flagship program, T.O.P News, hosted by Grammy-winning songwriter Tiffany Red. T.O.P News covers music news that directly impacts songwriters, producers, and artists, including copyright, royalties, legal disputes, artificial intelligence, and broader industry accountability.

​

T.O.P Network operates under The 100 Percenters Media Group, the for-profit media arm within The 100 Percenters ecosystem. While The 100 Percenters Foundation continues its nonprofit advocacy and education work, T.O.P Network is focused on building media infrastructure by creating original content, new platforms, and new opportunities for creators to be seen.

​

T.O.P News is not limited to video. While full episodes stream on YouTube via T.O.P Network, the newsroom also publishes written stories covering key industry developments. These articles are available at 100percenters.com and on Instagram, and will now be distributed through Substack. 

​

This multi-platform approach ensures that music creators can access information in the format that works best for them, whether through long-form video, written reporting, or visual news summaries.

​

T.O.P Network is designed to do more than report. It is built to help make creators more discoverable. In today’s music economy, visibility is currency. Songwriters shape culture, yet often remain behind the scenes with limited public recognition and fewer pathways to expand their careers. T.O.P Network aims to change that by elevating their stories, celebrating their work, and creating space for new talent to be seen, heard, appreciated, and discovered.

​

“Songwriters are foundational to every record, but we’re rarely centered in the narrative,” said Tiffany Red, Founder and Host. “On T.O.P News, we’re going to talk about this industry honestly and from the creator’s point of view. And through T.O.P Network, we’re creating more space for music creators to be seen, discovered, and celebrated. Visibility is power, and it’s time music creators had more of it.”
​​

T.O.P News is the first of several original shows planned for the network. Future programming will continue to spotlight the people behind the music while blending culture, conversation, accountability, and celebration.

​

T.O.P Network represents an evolution of The 100 Percenters’ mission, moving beyond advocacy alone to build a media platform that strengthens the creative economy from the inside out.

​

T.O.P News is available on YouTube, Instagram, Substack, and at the100percenters.com. Viewers and readers are encouraged to subscribe and follow for upcoming episodes, written features, and original programming.
