quincy jones was 49 when he produced thriller

it ain’t ever too late

miami > los angeles

and it’s not close

when shit not going the greatest for you

go help somebody else

i really love this music shit y’all have no idea

with all this beef and shit going on in the rap world this would be a PERFECT time to revamp def jam vendetta

but what do i kno

i could never switch and start making a genre i didn’t love just because that’s where some money is

you download that yuka app one time

you ain’t gonna be putting alot of the harmful shit in your body you once was fr

i’m successful because the same advice i put on social media i actually tell myself.. difference is i believe it.

i feel like that’s just an excuse people tell themselves so they don’t need to put themselves out there tbh.

same way you work on your craft as an artist you have to work on marketing yourself.

it’s not a light switch where it’s on and off.. it’s a bunch of trial and error to finally start seeing results but everyday there’s a new viral song that shows you it’s worth it.

if you really believe in the work you been putting in you shouldn’t ever be afraid to put yourself out there… regardless of the platform

tiktok is legit blowing songs up and making unknown artists and their music known and people still afraid to get on there because they don’t wanna be labeled a “tiktok” artist

back in the day you had to really grind at this shit and love it. make real sacrifices with your time and only the best of the best made it.

people start now for 3 weeks and get discouraged they got no deal.

i made beats for 6 years with 0 placements.

it’s never been easier to make music

when i started there was very few kits, 0 tutorials and very very few VSTs fr.

you can start making beats tomorrow and in 1 week have everything it took me 10 years to accumulate now.

i don’t get how people think we all gatekeeping some super big secret that just magically “puts you on”

it’s called 10+ years of hard work.
0 vacations. no going out. no partying. just working and always trying to be 6+ months ahead at all times.

🤷‍♂️

if these artists and producers knew the math breakdown of these $1,000,000 deals they waiting on to magically change their life they’d go elsewhere.

we need one of these for the music industry

we gone see who putting all this work in 9 months from now
