    • @timnixon8307
      @timnixon8307 2 місяці тому

      @judedude3377 which help would that be? He wrote the lyrics, he wrote the music, he produced the music, and he has to promote it himself. Yes, at some point in every musicians career any musician would have to do this for themselves anyway. Once a name is put on a contract with a major recording label, most all of that work is already done for the artist. A signed, major label artist does not have to actively market and push their product because that work is already done by the representatives from the label promoting the artists work. Meaning, that artist now has more time and availability to continue writing and working on new material and not having to focus on every single aspect of the business for themselves. So, even if Tom MacDonald did have someone that say just edited his video content; that does not help him to get his work out to more people just because someone else may have edited a video for him. Trust me, if Cardi B actually had to do the work to promote dumpster fire songs like "WAP" by herself, the vast majority of Americans would have never even heard her name before. But, Cardi B is a meat puppet, auto tuned, talentless hack that only has a contract because low IQ people at a record label somewhere "needed to promote the wokeness of society" with an artist. Which is how we end up with songs like "WAP" making us want to drill our eardrums out with a power tool. How bout giving some credit where it's due for an adult that actually WORKS for a living and managing to be successful despite the massive odds against him. So, how is he being "deceitful" by saying that the help he does get (in comparison next to nothing that a signed major label artist gets) is relatively small or nothing at all when compared by STATISTICS to the talentless signed artists that seems to be so readily accepted by the masses AND produced and pushed by industry professionals for those signed artists...

      You don't hear more about him because the algorithm is such, that without the "keys" to it. And backing from the industry. It intentionally gets buried. Even with huge numbers, its dissemination is slowed to a crawl. Shown only to those that have no interest etc etc. To keep it out if the hands of people who want to hear it. While at the same time still making it look as if the algorithm is doing what is suppose to be doing. Its all bullshit and lies. He has the number 2 (number 1 now?) song out there. And no one knows his name?? You start to get a glipse into just how fucked up, deep and far reaching, the manipulation that's happening really goes .
