The closer you get to the breakthrough the more disciplined you have to be. The work doesn’t get any less challenging so you need to remain focused and you need to remain enthusiastic. Don’t fall for the complacency trap.

1. You own the music by default, unless you sign a record deal or license your work to another party 2. Release songs. Consistently. Build catalog. Be authentic 3. It’s easier than ever to record and release music. Breaking through the noise is harder than ever.

Bandcamp: extremely profitable company, uniquely beloved of musicians and music fans alike, riding a wave of public goodwill, decides to sell themselves to a billionaire who then dumps them off to another billionaire who now fires half the company

Bandcamp gutted; dwindling engagement on social media platforms; Spotify, Live Nation, AI continue to dominate. Print media and the Humanities in peril. Half my friends are probably walking around with Eras Tour ticket stubs still in their pockets. Something's gotta give, yall

“Record label bails rapper out when rapper has financial troubles.” I hate how they phrase shit because the labels aren’t pulling this money out of thin air. The labels are taking the rappers royalties and “saving” the rapper with the rapper’s money. That’s just an advance.

Reminder: People who are willing to "play the game" to get ahead are willing to play a lot of other games to stay ahead Like throwing the people they claim to want to help under the bus at the slightest inconvenience ensuring they're "the only one" in the room for visibility etc

Sure feels very “smoke and mirrors” to me. Basically inducing artist to give up 20% of their revenue for what appears to be very nebulous promotion that may not mean much. TuneCore Accelerator – TuneCore support.tunecore.com/hc/en-us/artic…

The music industry is in crisis. It’s incredibly difficult to be a financially stable musician, even for those selling out tours or with millions of streams. All the industry money is flowing to a few giant corporations. We need to organize for major change & our fair share!

Just finished writing a deep detailed analysis of the new Spotify policy that it will not pay royalties from streams of sound recordings with less than 1,000 streams over prior 12 months.

The mental battles, the ups and downs, the self doubts are all natural when you are trying to prove you can move mountains. But that’s what a good team is for and your believers help with. They make you feel like anything is possible. So give them the energy they give you

Snoop Dogg has said he got $45,000 in return for 1 Billion streams 1 BILLION. Yet, i’m still speaking to artists daily who’s entire goal for 2024 is to get ‘more streams’ Guys, WAKE UP seriously

As a developing artist, you must agree to give the Major labels the royalties you earned if you’re recording streams less than 1000 times or you cannot have your music on Spotify. medium.com/@JPriceOfMusic…
