Practice, get good at making music, start dropping, STAY consistent, promote yourself & your on. Its not that deep, but it does take work. People either start dropping music & their not that good yet, or the quality sucks...or they drop music once every 3 months & dont promote thereself...etc. You gotta be on top of everything...Be patient, work & you got it!! Lifes what you make it! Awesome video bro, keep em goin!
This obsession with organic reach sounds like an artistic ego trap. Everybody has a blessing. Your success really starts when you recognize and capitalize on yours. Some people it's their looks, some money, some connects. Take what you can because everyone else is.

i loved your point about using what we have- because so many times us artists feel discouraged because either we don't have enough money, or enough followers, or yada yada. But the reality is we're just wasting our time complaining about what we don't have vs using our time to enhance the skills that we do have or use the resources that we do have!

This is amazing. I think the question EVERY emerging artist should be asking isn’t “how do I build an organic buzz” it’s WHERE IS THE BEST place to put my money to get the most ATTENTION. Is it influencer marketing? Is it the right collab? Is it IG ads? Etc etc.
Exactly right! I feel like there's a massive blue Ocean in crossing digital marketing (online advertising, sales funnels, etc.) and artist brands. It's not authentic for an indie artist to capture leads and sell you a ticket after a consistent drip email campaign, but that's "good marketing" if you're a label? The inconsistencies in this music game are wiiiild
I think the only thing really inorganic is buying likes, plays, or followers. These days algorithms in social media make it necessary to pay for ads and other ways for exposure.
the god’s honest truth is that blowing up and massive success happens when a prepared person encounters a lucky opportunity. if you make sure you’re prepared, and chase down situations and conversations with a solid chance of weighing in your benefit, you might have a shot.
You know, I’m not an artist (I’m a video editor/director) but your advice and concepts apply universally when trying to grow a fan base for ALL creatives. Appreciate it 🙏🏾
hey i’d love for some feedback and possibly to work together in the future, i’m working an a screenplay right now and have been getting a lot of mixed opinions on it. i’d love some feedback from an actual director and film editor for i’m still an amateur and this stuff
@@emailrichy yeah, that sounds easy but do not forget that great music is attractive and do not waste ur budget on a wack music hopping that it's going to blow up 😉😉
@DFM not really, I don't advocate advertising... After all the best marketing is word of mouth.. and I can tell you that from experience. If you advertise your giving up leverage.
I have a friend who makes amazing music but she just doesn’t release anything. Keeps making, and making music. You can’t take off if you don’t let people see your beautiful art!!
I know a few artists here in my small town who want "organic" fans. And they think paying for promo or playlist placement is "cheating" and they make good music... but they have been in the same spot for quite a while.
That’s wtf I’m saying, seeing small artists post stuff like “nobody is listening to my song”, “I’m trying to make it”, or “ I put in all this work give me a chance”, is such a turn off. It makes them seem desperate and seems like they aren’t putting in the time to figure out how to make an audience care about their work. It really does give off “loser”. Like NO, SHOW ME WHY U AND UR MUSIC IS DOPE!
All I see in the comments is a bunch of other artist/producers with that music note by their channel name. Y'all are already doing good and know the right path!
I hate that "Starving Artist" act people try to push. In 2019 there are better ways to create a successful stream of income from your brand and music than trying to sleep on couches and studios across the country calling yourself "Hustling" . Work on your craft , create a plan , and execute the best way possible.
I wouldn't have just did 100,000 Views with running UA-cam ads 🤷🏾♂️ I don't get why you wouldn't promote yourself when these platforms make it so cheap to do so
I don't know who came up with that organic term, but nothing about the music business is organic. People advertise all the time and in millions of ways. How is anyone going to find you without you advertising?
Well you really do need to be good at making music lol, no one that is straight trash is going to make it and that’s the sad truth. It’s a mixture of being great and marketing.
@@user-vx1ib1er1j idk, if you have your niche of ppl that like your music, and you market it to the correct ppl, then you’re good, I think. You really don’t need to be the best in the world
Good Point! MARKETING IS EVERYTHING!!!!! People fail because the label put em on the shelf and didn't market them, YOU HEAR IT ALL THE TIME!!! In ANYTHING in life never forget, YOU HAVE TO MARKET!!! I can't get into the whole story but all I can tell you is LEARN INTERNET MARKETING AND DIRECT MARKETING - IT WILL BE ONE OF THE BEST THINGS, MOST IMPORTANT THINGS YOU EVER DO THAT WILL ALSO GIVE YOU IMMEDIATE EXPONENTIAL RETURN!!! Trust this random stranger... my gift to you!
As a female artist I really appreciate this video. I have these type of convos with my team and just about everything hes said makes complete sense and is accurate. Very well informed man. Intellegence gets you farther then most things. Earned my sub 🤗
I put off advertising when I started off because I wanted to get a feel for how putting out content and "organically" marketing works. Then when I felt ready and felt I might make some money in return, I started advertising. But advertising is the furthest thing from cheating. If it's cheating, every single brand for the past century is a cheater.
In the end people being identified with being “genuine” or “organic” or “pure” is really just another thing they will try to play up later to market and promote themselves. The thing your method of promotion does not effect is the quality of your music. Make your music good first. Then understand that people want to hear it and make moves
Brand man, baby you got to be signing some of these artists you’re putting on... the amount of potential dollars that you could probably generate if you had 1 hot artist
for real, like me. i just need that extra push bc i can obviously make hit after hit. i had a hit before i went to prison. sold 25,000 ringtones. soundcloud.com/sodafrentmusic
I’m a little more seasoned and I’m from Macon, GA. It was understood that you had to spend money to get heard. We had to go to clubs and PAY the DJs to get your record played. You had to PAY to get in front of people at these showcases. You had to actually take trips to spread the word about your music. You had to PAY to get a big DJ to host a mixtape. You can pay $100 get your song in front of thousands of people all at once now. These labels and these artists have these fake 0-100 in 3 month stories bro. It’s throwing these young artists off their game.
Yea man. That's the old school now....The internet and "going viral" reeeeally made a lot of people run with this "organic" narrative. They even try to flip it and make it sound empowering and pure. Just like "DIY". The buzz words will mess you up though.
Work hard ... don’t give up... be original.... Do everything under the sky to get heard ... But mostly love what you do... then others just might... Chaos x
Do you think Russ’s SoundCloud grind (I posted a song a week for two years and blew up) was somewhat manufactured? (like he was paying to get accounts to repost him etc)
Of course you need to invest in yourself and put money into your music but TRUST me when I say, some people out here can magically blow up. You have people that buy their careers with so many ads over time and then you have unique talented individuals that blow up because the song extraordinary. Nothing is impossible. You can make it organically and paid
i came into this expecting "artist" to mean visual arts, like digital drawing, painting, ect Even though i came into this hoping for advice for a different type of art, i was pleasantly surprised that this video still applies PERFECTLY to visual arts, not just music. Good video, and definitely something i needed to hear!
Record labels are not STILLING artist money. First of all, this game is not designed for the artist to make money from sell or the record. Its always been designed for an artist to make money on shows appearances and endorsement. Artist sign the contract and then cry they getting beat.... but they are now BIG!!!.
success is subjective its how u see it but if a person see success like the majority of the world then a artist will have a hard time because they are going to consantly chase something big when they are already big ... yo in a nutshell the music business is a mind game just like the rest of the world its mostly about how u think
I respect with this guy is trying to do however I can tell by the tone in his voice that he is not an artist so really he’s qualified to tell artist what they should do.
It’s all about the intention. As within, so without, as above, so below. You can’t get big and manifest many followers if you’re frustrated or fearfully trying to push your product unto others. Music is spiritual and it cannot be faked. Almost all the musicians that I look up to made it organically. Where they reached a state of professionalism that comes with practicing for more than 10 thousand hours. Once u reach that state, that frequency of being, you naturally attract situations that get your music heard: either through meeting musicians that already have influence or other connections. We gotta be honest with ourselves as to why we make this music in the first place. Those who truly love music will not have the intentions of trying to manipulate their way through. They’ll just create.
Definitely a pill i needed to swallow.....I feel like in this era there's more emphasis on advertising to "prove" that you hace a good product/music....rather than advertising good music Apple puts millions in advertising....i feel

Once u reach that state, that frequency of being, you naturally attract situations that get your music heard: either through meeting musicians that already have influence or other connections.
