How Artists Should Deal with Failure

- Some advice to artists whose latest work didn't land with critics or their audience. It's of course an outsider's perspective, so if you are a musician in such a position, you can take it or leave it.

Thanks for coming to my little sister's piano recital. Calling it a "failure" was a bit harsh...making a video about it seems unnecessary. But I know she appreciated your presence. Have a blessed day Anthony, see you at Sunday's farmer's market.
Paul Ul really? That doesn't sound like him? He came to my daughters violin recital and told her how proud he was of her. She got so happy and said "Thanks Uncle Anthony!" And gave him a big hug! What a swell fella.

1. Marry logic and talk about how much you love your bi-racial husband

Yoooooo😂😂😂😂😂
Chance the rapper is surrounded by yes men and it's obvious with how badly he deals with negativity.
I heard he's an asshole in real life so everyone prolly agrees with him cuz they don't want to get fired or bitched at lol if you seen Atlanta he's supposed to be tha rapper that's being a dick to tha engineer.

@@Kst188 idk where but I read an article saying that shit about atlanta you can look it up on Google it could be just a rumor or sum. It makes sense tho
Same with eminem
Arda Göksoy yea after dropping kamikaze someone should have slapped him
Best way to deal with failure: get discouraged and quit your career, live in regret, spend LOTS of time making it a spectacle online and try defend your work, when the scathing criticism subsides and you’re a stale meme, quietly live in shameful despair and take it VERY personally. Got it Melon, thanks for the advice, love ya ❤️ 😔💔😢
I feel like this would be a more effective way to get Melon's message across. Anybody who reads this would immediately stop feeling sorry for themselves.
Anthony broke out of Alcatraz to make this
jamesdfd2001 🤣🤦🏻♂️
I wonder what got him in there
💀💀💀
*Melon has broken out of containment*
Tyler, the Creator is a great example of what an artist SHOULD do. Didn’t let the negativity of Cherry Bomb get to him and put out Flower Boy two years later
Wife ≠ Jaden Smith
I agree. Tyler's Cherry Bomb was slaughtered by critics (I think it got lower than The Big Day; 65 on metacritic or something). Tyler turned that upside down in 2 years.
He didn't let it "get to" him, but he did kinda pull the whole "only real music fans and appreciators will get it" thing. Not to a crazy degree like say a Kanye or something, but it was there.
Gazebo Luecke although he did address the hate on social media he still didn’t let it seep into his next body of work. He just worked on his music improved his producing skills and delivered his most personal album without focusing on the flop that was Cherry Bomb in the album
@@gazeboluecke6333 In the Zane Lowe interview he does say that it got to him. He didn't address it publicly at the time though. He quietly got better, and two amazing albums better he now speaks on it.
If he had got mad defensive or spoke about it publicly, people would not have responded as well to Tyler.

As an artist i can easily say that i have been challenged with various types of critique and id be lying if i said that they didn't bother me. It's been tough but each time I'm faced with the critics I've learned how to manage my ego more and more so that it won't affect my creative process or my mental health. Every one of the points Anthony has made has been valid and the advice can be used for even everyday living. It's just cool to see someone else thats heavily involved in the industry share valid information to others who may be unaware of how to cope with their psyche when dealing with critique. Cool melons Melon. Keep living healthy mane

I think the way Kanye handled the criticism of 808s & Heartbreaks and the Taylor Swift incident was the best response possible. He released his Magnum Opus My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. The irony of it, 808s & Heartbreaks is arguably his most influential album. Whilst The Big Day will never be a timeless classic. Never.
Kanye didn't love his wife yet
this makes no sense. no one thought 808s and heartbreaks would be such a big thing in the future. think again boy
@@nikitay2559 actually I did. I time traveled and saw that people loved the album. I came back and told everyone the album would age well, and now everyone looks at me like a genius
@@nikitay2559 yeah but there's a difference between the 2 situations. People were hesitant to 808s because it wasn't anything conventional, it wasn't the kind of Kanye people were used to and it was experimental. TBD is bland, tasteless, generic and corny. There is no real progression other than "I love my wife". It sounds like a watered down version of Colouring Book but hits everything wrong. That's why
I remember when 808s dropped. It was so, so different from anything he had done and basically anyone had done up until that point. This was after that Graduation album sales beef with 50 fucking cent and suddenly this left field project nobody knew what to do with. There wasn’t a blueprint for avante guard Kanye yet...808s opened up space for projects like Yeezus later. So many stink pieces ‘Has Kanye lost his mojo’ and then you’re right, immediately afterward was Ima Let You Finish-gate and dude was straight up out of the country for like a year. Damn man. MBDTF is the greatest comeback album of all time, OF ALL TIME

I‘m just kinda... skeptical of
Chance actually loving his wife that much.
I honestly think, he basically tells himself he really loves her that much because it seems to be the right thing to do.
Then the whole „eyo, I‘m super religious now, drugs are evil“... just reeks of surpressed shit.
Day 2 of asking for a buffcorrell's Death Grips covers: Worst to Best.
buffcorrell smells like garlic shrimp
Buff correll is Soo under rated
his Talking Heads covers >
I totally agree. I don’t understand why Chance said People want him to “kill himself”. I didn’t see anything about that .
Alex Smith He’s a huge public figure who dropped (a universally agreed upon) bad album of course he probably received death threats, jokes with more malicious intents. If I was an artist who spent 3 years on an album expressing my happiness only for people to turn the album and me into a meme I’d probably feel kinda shit too.
Yikes M8 but nobody wants to kill him They just wanted a better album. An Album spurred from genuine emotion
@@alexsmith879 I know no one wants to kill him but it doesnt mean people probably arent sending "kys" and other shit like that. i think you missed my point
@@alexsmith879 They're telling him they wish he would just go back to doing drugs.
Alex Smith His album was spurred from genuine emotion. Just because you don’t relate with or understand his emotions doesn’t mean he they don’t exist
why did logic re-upload his video just to put in the part about him being biracial?
Artists are sensitive as hell. I remember a Donald Glover interview where he mentioned the reason he's not on social media is that it's too much for him to take in. More artists would live happier lives if they just did the same.
The internet: Chance loves his wife
Chance: you all want me to kill myself
Yeah that was so fucking stupid lol. I'm 100% sure that there wasn't a single person who told him to kill himself.
@@cheekybananaboy3361 I'm sure several people told him that.
@@JC20XX Yeah, I mean
It takes, what, 3 seconds to type "kys"? Not really unlikely
@@cheekybananaboy3361 dude he's a famous person on the internet of course they did
Peruvian Leftist Fella if you’re talking ab taking acid, you’ll never die or get close to death from acid, considering that’s the drug they’re telling him to take again
And I appreciate this video. I remember the first time I watched your channel I hated you cause you gave an album I liked a low score. But it’s exactly the mindset that you have with the internet that allows you to continue making such quality content! Keep it up man, I appreciate you.
Thank you. This video was very helpful Anthony. Unsubscribed
Original.
I bet you are the type of person to tell managers "you will never get my business again" 😅
I have a rock album I’ve been working on for 4 years and I can’t wait to release it and see the reaction, whether it be negative or positive. Hope Fantano reviews it one day.
Though I’m 99% sure he’ll give it a decent 5.
Is it out?
Twin Pumpkin it is not. I couldn’t get any help realizing its full potential. I do have a collection of track listed demos of the songs and I’m missing like 4 of them. I can link them to you if you’d like.
If you need any help on drums tracks, im available!
Anthony hurt Chance’s feelings so bad with that review that he had to create a power point to show Chance how to deal with it.
What a legend.
It's okay Melon, you didn't have to delete the vid the first time we know you love your Wife
this was really thoughtful, and it applies to a lot of things outside of music too, so it's a useful bit of stuff for a lot of people i think. it's not anything i hadnt heard before, but its one thing to know something and its another thing to hold myself to the same standard i hold others, lol. i would tell an artist friend of mine all of this in a heartbeat, but i wouldn't necessarily tell it to myself. so, having someone doing that in video form is helpful haha
These friendly advices prove how much you're a positive human being! Thanks for your work and your great sense of humour, Fanthony! :-)
Anaël Honings you forgot to unsubscribe
@@OpaqueVideos LMAO
Chance is being way too sensitive about one little meme
don't think it's just the meme, the record blew big time
Nah I'd say it's pretty just for him to react this way for his first album release
Wil Anderson he probably should of dropped a good album then lol
I thought it was pretty good he thought it was good A bunch of people said it wasnt good......He hasn't dropped one bad project until now and people act like it's the end of the world stop hating and just listen to something else dont hate on the artist
@@IHav3No3n3mies ooh I love my wife
Generally this is good advice and can be said to anyone in any creative field. I think you’re right that an audience is easy to forgive when an artist puts out new and better projects. I mean just look at Kanye for example. The man puts his foot in his mouth so much and has made quite a few duds, but always ends up winning favors with his audience because he’ll just hit the nail on the head I guess. Im not even really fan of his but it’s easy to notice when he’s doing well because of the nature of his life having so many highs and lows.
That said it’s just hard being a creative person when it’s so tied to who you are as an individual. You’ve already addressed this, but it takes a lot of discipline and understanding to come out scathing reception like that.
We get it, Melon. You're Chance the Rapper's wife and you just have his album a 0 so you wouldn't seem biased.
There will ALWAYS be more supporters than haters. Sometimes the haters are just louder
Powerful PowerPoint Presentation
If anybody is wondering the actual reason this got reuploaded. The original title was "I love Chance's wife"
1. keep courage
2. f the haters
3. let it go
4. move on
5. its not personal
6. ppl have no memory
there you go, youre welcome
I love you funatish.
funatish Is this the version that is in Lamont terms? 😀
Make a sequel about how artists should handle success, that’s also pretty important in public image
"You can't please all of the people all of the time"
Death managed to never make a bad album, but that's a special band tbh
I think Death has become more and more celebrated since Chuck's passing. The Sound of Perseverance was pretty divisive when it came out.
Watching this one in preparation for putting anything out. Your videos are genuinely helpful to me Anthony, and that I appreciate.
I love you Unkle Adams but I really hope you listen to this
as an artist myself i really appreciated all you had to say in this piece; many thanks for all your wonderful thoughts on our musical world :)
"This is an eventuality. You can't please everyone all the time"
Kendrick would like a word
Thank you man. I needed to hear this. 🤘
Anthony had to make this because he’s next NOT GOOD artist might die.
This honestly applies to critics who get attacked for their reviews, too. I've made all these mistakes!
Someone give me a rundown on why this was deleted
Chance and his wife got to Anthony
Cal reuploaded to let the truth out
Thanks John Travolta
He forgot to edit out a few slurs
lokuendog you mean add in* a few slurs
But in actuality, he misspelled a word in the video
Didn't really think I would personally benefit from this, but now I see future me really benefitting from this. So I needed this, thanks!
This is a great blueprint for many types of failures.
Even though I've disagreed with you at times, Anthony your overall stance makes it so that I eventually see your point and respect your view every time. As you said, continuing to create and proving yourself as a creator bypasses any frustration people might have with a single piece of your work. (Ya still did my boys AM dirty tho, but hey it's ok)
Fuck yo I do not know how not to be discouraged. I struggle hard to keep some sort of self worth when there is so many people that are exactly what you want to be
In the end, I feel like the artistic process is more important than the result of that process. Simple journey not destination thing, but in the case of art it's very helpful for me. Of course they are intimately connected.
Basically: don’t let your failures define you
GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN! THE "YOU DIDNT HAVE TO SAY THAT MELON" COMMENTS ARE COMING! RUN AND THEN DONT LOOK BACK! YOULL TURN TO STONE! YOULL LOVE YOUR WIFE! OH THE HORROR

This was really good. Although Fantano can seem a bit clinical and a bit too analytical in his approach of artists and music in general, I love the empathy Fantano has for Chance in this video (and other artists). It shows his humanity. Empathy is honestly a big thing missing in hip hop culture, but this was amazing to watch
9 rappers who dissed Anthony Fantano.mp4
Honestly, all memes aside, if anyone questions Melon's place to talk about dealing with backlash, I implore you to look up the "controversial reviews" playlist someone made for all his stuff.
Just look through all the like/dislike ratios, it's honestly kinda amazing

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT VIDEO YOU’VE MADE FOR YOUNGER ARTISTS, thanks melon 🌎🌎🌎
“how artists should manage failure”
*reuploads video*
Well said bro. Into it.
Artists are human. There music is there life n when people shit on it hurts. Then you guys call them corny for having human reactions.
No ones ever called anyone corny for having human reactions
Tom Hunt literally everyone does.
They're called corny when they very evidently fake and use emotion as a crutch to make people like there work. Slapping I'm depressed on an unintelligible piece of garbage doesn't make it good. Same with I love my wife.
Yeah, but like melanothy says at 7 min... it's not a personal attack, you have to take the criticism and change next time. In art school I had to learn that my first few years. Plus, everyday people don't know how to properly criticize a piece.. they just say it sucks, or it sounds like shit. It also takes time to know how to criticize something without generally describing it.
i think this is one of your best videos of this format. very well put

I appreciate all of the advice, Melon! Very thoughtful and applicable to the process.
If you kill Chance, I better not be seeing a apologie video coming from you.
This is some of the best business advice I've ever heard. Thank you.
This is a good video. I agree with the Logic point a lot as even though I don't think the biracial stuff and hate is necessarily affecting him too much, he is putting it in his music wayyy too much
impressed with the constant production quality despite being in prison for throwing metal wallets at people melon
Videos like this and your honest opinion is exactly why im subscribed to you. Thank you
my thought, immediately after reading the title:
this is about chance isn't it?
This seems like it's about dealing with negative feedback from fans. I think it would be difficult for an artist to not take widespread negative critical response as something other than digs at their artistic ability.
I see ya fantano with the boy in stripped pajamas drip
