We reached our goal this year, guys.
On this episode we're talking about why millions of other artists quit too soon; before they've found their sound, their look, their audience, and how to create income from their hard work.

If you aren't familiar with the internet trend of "Hear Me Out," where people show photos of UNLIKELY characters from movies and tv that they'd consider romantically seeing (or lately, hear-me-out-cakes, where friends are putting photos of their characters on a stick and sticking them into a cake together), then let us be your introduction to the musical version of hear-me-out-artists we hate t...

Trust us when we say we haven't talked about this before now - so this podcast is a really a stream of consciousnes...

Quality Vs Quantity: Which Is More Important In Your Art?
Переглядів 50Місяць тому
The other day on Tiktok we were talking about how few artists ever post more than 10 songs on Spotify. The VAST majority stop before 10, so we were encouraging our listeners to set a quantity goal: post ten songs and you'll already be ahead of the vast majority. Someone commented on that post and said, "But how does quality vs. quantity come into play here?" We thought that was such a good ques...

Ur a 🚩
I’ve never been as nervous in my entire life than just now, when I was listening to Ryan’s story about changing the key. I’m so sorry, dude!!!!! 😂
@@blainroark432 I give it 0/10. Do not recommend.
That was fun!
Ok and you'll still be making pennies.
nuh-uh
I'm gonna tell you right now, as someone who has followed you both since school days, I'm silently over here cheering you on and in your corner, proud of you for continuing to chase a dream and doing what you love - even if it's messy and even if it's cringe. And I think a lot of people who are friends/acquaintances/past relationships are the same - rooting for us from the sidelines. So keep doing your thing you guys, so many people want to see you succeed and continue pursuing what you love. Plus, the music is always excellent too ;)
Your comment made our day. ❤️ thank you so much Bethany.

@@arguy2021 who are you?!? 🤠
Love it
Thanks!
Dope.
Thanks for listening 🎉
Loved your honesty and advice in this episode! As someone who recently got their dream job (cake decorating) only to find out my products would be constantly critiqued by my coworkers until our cakes looked exactly the same, I have to agree that having a day job that isn't your "passion" or dream career can actually be ideal. That being said, I do think finding a job that isn't soul-sucking/miserable but still pays the bills is worth looking into if you can. Thanks for the encouraging episode and I look forward to what you two have in store :)
@@sydneyhuffman4388 bestie! 🥲 Thank you so much for such a thoughtful comment. We’re really sad to hear that the dream hasn’t quite actualized for you yet, and that you‘be undergone a lot of critique. We know how that feels. But maybe an entrepreneurial adventure is down the road where you can be your own cake boss? 🥰 We’d love to see you make your dream a reality. And yes, we agree with you. The more you enjoy your job, the better ❤️ Thanks so much for listening
The power = art for the sake of art
@@christianbaxter_yt yes!
You’re telling me if you have a solid day job takes care of your family and helped you develop a home studio??? ; )
My day job sucks my soul quite often but it is good and takes care of our needs and allows freedom to create. Love the pod : )
@@christianbaxter_ytI mean we have already quit our jobs and bought an RV but we think this advice is great for other people!
