    Just for reference that house was actually a garage at one point 😂 Sketchy neighborhood, but great memories

      Thanks Daniel! Yeah I kind of got emotional thinking back about it! Feeling helpless like that.. never want to feel that way again!

    I am now putting out 2 songs per week. I will slow down to once a week after 3 months. At this point I barely have any streams. A record label hired me to remix some songs and they got 50-60k streams on spotify i didn't get paid but that was the deal but those remix audiences didn't translate to my own tracks. I do anywhere from 5-50 streams per track. Lost both my parents two years back. I'm kinda broke paying for their medical bills. But watching your videos gives me some hope that if i can keep at it maybe life will give me a chance. I can finally afford to have a child with my fiance. Thank you for the positivity brother

      @@zillamode Well to be fair I can relate to the part of your story with the dog))) (my heart squeezed) and I definitely can relate to the feeling of being helpless))) I’m working two jobs at the moment one in school as a TA and other over the weekends as a chef and I only recently start uploading with DSP’s although I’ve been doing music for a quite some time now))) I think overall prospective to look at it as a hobby and have fun really make me to think of how I can change my attitude as well as expectations so it don’t affect me in a negative way))) I also would like to mention that your videos are really helpful as it gives us (viewers and musicians) really good prospective ))

    sup bro, been watching your come up for a while now. what kind of CPA do you get when you run your ads? I cant seem to get mine below 1$ AUD (approx $0.65 USD). I work in advertising and have ran heaps of campaigns but seem to be stuck. Been running music ads for years now and still struggling.
    I see some less equipped artists get really lucky and generate 20-30c conversions but ic ant seem to hack it. I have tried multiple visuals, audio and just about every audience narrow or wide... No Bueno

    Perhaps a TMI question, but the money bit of this video was what I saw as the most important part to me personally, I know it's a long game but I'm curious to how much you'd estimate you'd spent on marketing (ads + youtube reposts) over the course of your career. (Before it was finally profitable, and what you continue to spend) Thanks man I always really appreciate your transparency.

      I probably put around 10k in over 2 years of pushing in different places but most of it was spent on duds honestly! Check out my videos on “my journey to one million”!
