    I never knew Tory Lanez got on like that. Songwriting is so underrated. You’d be surprised how many of your favorite songs was not written by the artists who sang them

  • @SouthernEmperor

    It's best to discover your own artists and make them hot as a writer. Industry writers get the vaseline and they don't really get all of their publishing.
    It's a DIY age, if you're a talented writer break your own artists and lock down all of your publishing. Looking for industry deals is not the way anymore. That's the wrong route today. You get more attention from mainstream execs and artists, by creating your own bubble and making your own money and creating your own buzz, and if you're dope, they will come to you and you will have more power in negotiating your publishing.

      @@RedVelvetUnderground333 definitely. You just gotta network a lot, and find people who are looking for demos so you can connect with them or market yourself to them.
      I just mentioned the studio thing because meeting people in person is a great way to make things happen quicker. Online can sometimes take longer since you have to build up the relationships and reputation before anyone takes a chance on you.
      Just use whatever method is complimentary to your communication style. Also, if you have a friend or someone you know who's really good with talking to people, and they're part of the music industry, consider using them as another way to market you to other people.
      Word of mouth is super powerful.

    Tory wrote for Justin beiber for a good while BUT he actually got on by being an artist FIRST . He had a deal long before he started writing for other people then he came back out again. Tory lanez wasn’t a good example for this point BUT we get the point👏🏽👏🏽 because the reality is you can’t can even become a songwriter without having a buzz already too. It’s just like being a beatmaker or artist: like noone wants a song from someone who isn’t co-signed yet. Tory already had a co-sign waaay back. His old videos are still up btw if anyone wants to reference them. I mean videos soooo far back before he even got his teeth fixed.

    • @BrandmanNetwork
      @BrandmanNetwork  5 років тому

      I disagree tbh. Getting "signed" before writing for other artists wouldn't change anything about what I said. Most music careers aren't linear. And many people start as an "artist" but become writers.
      What youre describing about Tory's specific case is about how he came "back out" is due to his writing. Point is whatever level you're at, it could be of value for you to get to the next level.

    Great Video and materials as always big homie! I'm about to start marketing myself as a song writer over the past decade I've made over 200 songs (Hip-Hop & R&B) and I'm definitely looking to spread the love....the songbird that writes for the caged bird...

      That has nothing to do with anything.
      I'm not saying he became an artist AFTER he was a songwriter. I'm saying he was able to come out on another level AFTER being a valued songwriter because of the resources it afforded him. In the same way I'm telling people who are currently artists "if you're an artist that CAN be a songwriter it can help your career as an artist"
      We should all by now that mixtapes and even a record deal does not equal success.

    I agree with your points but you obviously need connections to artists in order for them to even know about your songwriting skills.

      King of January You could also possibly submit your music to labels or find the management/booking email. There are ways to do it as a diy artist, I used to think it was hard too but it’s all in how you think about it. The internet is Cake
