I want to ask is there any free distribution for this ? and if there is an artist that puts their music only on Youtube and hasn't registered or licensed their music can I use it and will the distribution ask for my identity or other verification to make sure i'm the real artist?
There are free distributors who take a percentage of your earnings. You're far better off paying the small fee that a distributor like DistroKid charges each year and keeping 100% of your earnings.
No, you cannot use another artist's music. If you even make it past the distributor verification and Spotify's checks, which is unlikely, the original owner can contact Spotify any time or attempt to upload it there themselves one day, and you'll lose your earnings and probably your account. You need ORIGINAL music.
