FYI I recently attended the ASCAP Writers Members Meeting at Lincoln Center NYC. ASCAP President Paul Williams was on stage talking about artist advocacy and he asked the audience, "Who's the young fellow with the big hair Ari???" Just then over a thousand people all song writers yelled out "Ari Herstand!!” I just thought you should know that you make a real difference in folks lives. Thanks man
that's so dope!!
Oh wow this made my day. Thank you for letting me know!
love it all the time to be here
Great interview. I appreciated how candid her answers were.
Thank you!
I work for a small independent label and my name is Jess... and I am the exact same person as your Jess!! I do everything... even songwriting and production, marketing, social, video editing, color grading, copywriting, bio writing, pr... maybe it's a Jess thing... we are just equally left and right brained people. :)
GOOD JOB ARI !!!!!
Thank you!
Ari you need to make a video about AI music. Specifically Udio. All this other stuff may even not be relevant anymore. If this company is not stopped im pretty sure there will not even be a music business anymore. The scary part is its happening so fast that nobody have time to react.
You tryna hop onto that AI? As with absolutely anything and everything, the very best will rise to the top
also interested in suno
I'm digging into it all
@@BatistaInvests Depends what the top will be. The most likely scenario right now is that everybody will have their own cusomized playlist with their "own music" in their AI app. That means bye bye Spotify if they dont jump on the make your own track train.
Ari you say the word ummm Alot fam
Sorry
@@ArisTake Your good, I still bought your book. Amazing content.I didn't know if you realized how much you say uhhh and ahhhh instead of pause for a second then say something else.
