@kolter00, you are on point, this is one problem with most artist. They don't want to invest in their own craft on the promotion side of the industry. Which takes money, to make money! Great post!
Thank you my man! I really appreciate you being down to earth with all cash revenues. There's always an inerrant hype around money talk. Everybody wants money and live off they love. The thing is if you don't manage expectation, you risk losing love for what you're doing. I think how your approach in this video has valuable cautionary tales that are sewed with you personnal experience in the industry. I hope in the future you make a follow up video of "I fell off" with the title "I'm well off"
Great tips fam! I made a couple hundred from streaming. My advice is submit your release to Lofi labels that have a large network, so your track goes on loads of playlists. Then if you get a Spotify editorial, thats another huge boost to your streams.
you inspired me to start making money off streaming. working on my first project now. if you already have one I apologize, but a more detailed video on sync licensing would be awesome
I'd probably only make a more detailed video on that after I get into it more. As I said in the video im a bit privileged on that in because my manager finds stuff like that for me
I watch a lot of these videos but when L.dre does one I always appreciate it More. Something about his chill style encourages me to always try harder 🙏💕 STAY BLESSED
Thanks for the video L.Dre. Very helpful tips. Right now, I'm getting money just from the streams and you're right, right now it's not much despite thousands of streams, but I have opened a beats store on my website and I'm currently working on some sample pack ideas. I'll look into Sync Licensing and maybe the NFTs if I'm up for it.
I appreciate your content man. I watch your videos bc you’re real and authentic and it comes across clearly in your media. It makes you stick out as trustworthy. There’s so much bullshit out there and it can be difficult to sift through all of it to find the gems. And I’m grateful that I found your channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and path to success, I’m sure you’re genuinely helping a lot of good people out here. 🙏🏼💎🙏🏼
Thx 🙏🏾 for the tips my man. I’ve been in the music game a long time but spent more time helping others but just shifted to helping myself simultaneously and your information is priceless.
I used to peep you on Instagram back when you was at your mom's garage. Then you finally made it up and left with ya lady. Damn bro you did for it for real. I gotta get on that shit
It really just comes down to making time because I want to improve my knowledge and quality but aside from lots of work I need to make time to do all that. That's my priority while still finding a job to make money. Thanks L dre❤
I Love the Last message bruuuh....real asf😂😂😂 Many people will be scared to say that but it's reality...i got you bro...i'mma walk my wy way up to get to where you are Thanks for the video
Great video bro. I’ve wanted to make beats forever and I’ve been messing with garage band on my phone for the last few months and doing research to learn more about all this now I got a Mac book otw so I can do some serious work and I’m gonna dedicate more of my time to this. I’m passionate about it I love making beats and a fuck a 9-5 it’s my dream to be financially stable doing something I love on my own time. Appreciate all the tips
Hey bro thank you for dropping some knowledge about that subject because not everyone will have the sincerity and honesty to let people knows about that much love and respect my brother 👍🙏❤.
Hope you are investing your wealth for interest so you can retire early brother. A lot of self-made people think once they have a bunch of money it'll never go away but it can disappear in an instant over nothing. Play smart so you never have to worry about what will happen in the future!
@@LDreTheGiant Like I know you're the lofi guy and whatever but with the amount you're making and the success you've had surely it's time to put a little more creativity and effort into the artistic side of things? I love your beats but now that you're not hustling to survive there's soo much room to go and do something cool! All love though
@@OFCR1 yeah I get you but it all depends on what people want with their lives. Me personally I like what I do and I do switch it up a lot behind the scenes. Most of the stuff I do for commercials isn’t lofi at all but at the end of the day I built my brand around this genre and that’s what the masses expect from me. So at some point you have to find a solid balance between getting crazy creative and giving the people what they want.
All of these can be easily accessible ONCE you have an audience. Even the NFT project. No one cares about your NFT’s if you’re a nobody. But if you have your audience, all of these doors open up for you… moral of the story, build your audience and begin posting on social media EVERYDAY.
I enjoy your post cause your the most real about how to make money.plus you have actually made money making music. And your not trying to sell some useless course👍🏿. Plus if you see your videos one can see your financial growth by your studio shots. I take what YOU say seriously because I see you actually doing it.plus your honesty about the money you make giving us some real numbers I especially appreciate that. Got my first releases dropping on September 23. And I will be using some of your ideas.Keep growing. AK66
I appreciate the tips man 💯 could you go into a little bit more depth about sync licensing? I definitely would like to branch into that market more and any tips would be helpful!
great video, tryna be like you my man! btw, what kind of microphone did u use when sampling around disney world? been trying to get a good portable mic
I’m a single mom living in a homeless shelter w my kids but I have an iPhone & a passion for music (production & singing/song writing). All I have is BandLab, GarageBand, koala sampler, etc & a pair of headphones rn lol. My mixes aren’t the best at the moment due to having limited equipment options but I do what I can and it honestly doesn’t sound too bad. I plan on going to school for production so I can produce for other artists and for myself. Idk when I’ll have my own place again so having a spot to put a studio in until then is looking iffy. My question is do you think I could still sell beats on beat stars or should I wait to start selling & just focus on documenting my progress and building more of a following? (I have almost 4k on TikTok and have had a few videos go viral)
Hey L Dre. Love ur music . And has inspired me to make similar kind of music, against the music I normally perform live.. I love country,gospel, retro classic rock n stuff. Im from India. So you know how difficult it is for us Indians to absorb this kind of music.. That being said, I still perform live. N make my living. I was wondering if you could gimme extra tips n advice on how to go about making music online and start off right away, so that I don't have to depend on live shows a 100%. I have a decent setup at home, I work mostly on cubase and Reason. Plus I have a Roland FA 07. A Little help will be much appreciated. I was particularly interested in your advice on online streaming and Sync Licensing. Thank you. Have a great day
My thing is to write, perform and produce. I have no appetite for the promo work. I have 13 albums and 10 singles in Spotify, iTunes, etc. when I start to think about how to promote my songs, my mind goes into a fog of funk. I need to partner with someone with those skills. Any suggestions?

great insight, you articulated this flawlessly...#Legend
bro, i pray to be like you one day! I really wanna make a living out of music production!
And here I am without having ever finished one. Single. Project.. I clearly don't love this enough.
Great stuff!

Very informative. Thank you for this share! 🙏🏾👊🏾💯

That’s all I think about. Constantly finding ways to invest maybe I should make a video on that as well.
L.Dre: get on camera
Me: but I’m shy
I’m shy in real life but after years of being on camera I’m no longer shy online
For the first time I see decent and viable advice for this matter 🤣
Thank you ! 😃
Thanks Ldre
Appreciate you thank you for the honesty
God bless you bruh ❤
Great ideas! 👍🙏
Thank you for these insights. God bless you ☺️🙏🏼❤️
all i know how to do is make music, upload to youtube, upload to distrokid so it gets on spotify, and thats it. i havent made any money yet lol
Ayo, this man done said shmeckles Morty's adventure episode😁😁😁😁
Those days have gone , now every kid born right now is a music producer that's make it a very competitive and less paying job.
BLESSINGS COME WHEN YOU PUT THE WORK IN, IT DONT WORK ANY DIFFERENT!!!
ofcourse
Thank you🙏🏽⚡️
Yo, Dre amazing video but youtube added automatic chapters. and they dont really make sense so maybe tick that off in the channel settings
The amount of money you make is all good but the insane lack of effort and creativity is honestly such a problem bro, do you not see it??
What do you mean?
@@LDreTheGiant Like I know you're the lofi guy and whatever but with the amount you're making and the success you've had surely it's time to put a little more creativity and effort into the artistic side of things?

Hey bro Can you explain step 4 a little deeper? Like how the process workes of actually getting something synced? Start to finish?
I appreciate the tips man 💯 could you go into a little bit more depth about sync licensing? I definitely would like to branch into that market more and any tips would be helpful!
Should i join copyright association to earn money from Spotify streaming?
I think that safety is important and one should use double-protection technologies, such as Cross Staking!
great video, tryna be like you my man! btw, what kind of microphone did u use when sampling around disney world? been trying to get a good portable mic
i just made 6500 last month, just a laptop, and headphones. but real relationships
always Humbled
Make poster's with the Lofi Guys!!

Make sure the high hat is high and the kick is low
How did you do the audio in this video?
Awesome video. Thank you so much for sharing and really happy for you that the hard and consistent work pays off. Do you still do Patreon? Take care
No I stopped the patreon actually
