The LiteraVerse logs 41,369 Lity Streams for C.M. James’ The Black Book
The LiteraVerse published its first official Lity music report, saying C.M. James’ The Black Book: The CM Files drew 41,369 first-party streams over seven days from Sept. 4 to Sept. 11, 2026. The report gives the platform a new in-house way to measure audience activity as it expands into music, audio stories and other creator tools.
Why it matters: - The LiteraVerse is trying to establish its own audience metrics instead of relying on third-party streaming benchmarks. - The first Lity Report gives the platform a public, repeatable way to track music activity across its ecosystem. - The report also signals that The LiteraVerse wants to grow beyond music into audiobooks, stories, visual talent and visual art.
What happened: - The LiteraVerse published its first official Lity music report on Sept. 14, 2026. - The report logged 41,369 Lity Streams for C.M. James’ album The Black Book: The CM Files. - The measured period ran from Sept. 4 through Sept. 11, 2026. - The total reflects activity recorded only inside The LiteraVerse. - The count does not include plays from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music or other outside platforms. - A complete track ranking and the reporting period are available on the Lity Reports page.
The details: - The LiteraVerse said it compiled the report from first-party audience data using its “Every Click Counts” framework. - A Lity Stream is recorded when a visitor clicks to access eligible music or audio content on The LiteraVerse. - Repeat accesses may count. - Lity Streams are not presented as royalty-bearing DSP streams, unique-listener totals or third-party-certified figures. - “I’ll Do It Again” ranked No. 1 in the initial reporting period. - “Cash Smash Nash” ranked No. 2. - “No Translation” ranked No. 3. - “Blick Hop” ranked No. 4. - “My Favorite Hobby” ranked No. 5. - The album version of “Blick Hop” intentionally ends before Isha Mane’s full appearance. - The track is meant to transition into Due Process, a forthcoming album on C.M. Jaye Music. - The late Larysa Jaye’s Nashville Dream is also planned for release later this winter. - The LiteraVerse currently offers immersive audio stories and experiences, including Widow’s Vendetta and Center Stage: The Last Fan. - The platform also includes works from multiple authors and creators. - LiteraVerse Seen, a modeling and visual-talent division, is in development. - The CreatiVerse is also in development and will extend the ecosystem into visual art.
Between the lines: - The first report appears designed to define The LiteraVerse’s own measurement standard before outside audiences compare it with mainstream streaming services. - Founder C.M. James is positioning Lity Reports as both a product feature and a brand statement about direct audience relationships. - The platform’s expansion plan suggests The LiteraVerse wants to function as a broader creator marketplace, not just a music destination. - “The LiteraVerse is here to stay,” C.M. James said, adding that the platform is for new artists, authors and creators who want a more direct relationship with audiences. - James also said the reporting model is meant to define the measurement, publish it clearly and report directly to the people.
What's next: - Lity Reports will continue publishing dated first-party reports covering music, audiobooks and original audio experiences available through The LiteraVerse. - The LiteraVerse App is available in the Apple Store and Google Play. - The company is also building out its artist and creator pipeline through upcoming releases and new divisions.
The bottom line: - The LiteraVerse is using its first official report to turn internal listening activity into a public metric and to frame its next phase of growth around music, audio storytelling and creator tools.
