If I have any advice and mistakes I made. Focus on 1 SONG at a time. It’s tough because everyday you’re inspired to create more but that makes you have to do too much. Just do 1 song every month or two months. Focus on mix/mastering it. Uploading it . Shooting a video for it and marketing
Only started rapping myself because nobody would want to use my beats. It's a lonely path but honing your craft is the ultimate satisfaction. This FOMO stems from being online way too much & comparing yourself. I know dudes who been jamming their guitar solo for 20 years - they a different breed. We want to be this and that, those results & achievements but mfers won't put in the work most of the time n thats fax always keep ginding, you don't have to become the next superstar...you have the gift of knowing what you enjoy & god gives you passion for a reason
Russ said something similar to what you said at the end. The music quality just has to be there. Doesn’t matter if you do it all yourself or none of it yourself. The music has to be there or nobody will care
Rick Rubin says if the song is good enough to share with your friends, or somebody you like being around, then it’s most likely ready to share with the world. What criteria does your music have to meet for you to release it sky?
it’s not too far off that but I’d only add if it makes sense , has a purpose ( and if i missed the purpose ) I wouldn’t drop it cuz how I think about it id want my songs to be relatable to the point you can see yourself doing whatever the song is about.
My biggest issue is being a perfectionist and taking too much time to drop. Other than that, it’s pretty cool being solo now in my life given that finances are good and I’m more mature and grounded.
@@ZetaKeepTrickin my SAME exact problem. Too many options which is actually a bad thing. Then you start liking the new song more than the one you started yesterday and the cycle repeats. I’m with you bro. We gotta just see it through to the finish and start another one. I have like 200 half finished songs and only one on Spotify -_-
@@Keviekev115 man i jus went thru all my files on the weekend, a lot of half finished, and made 139 full songs since i started making music back in 2021, now im jus finna follow my homeboy’s advice and jus drop every week, my music will find its audience eventually, i cook everyday but hold myself back cuz i want shii to be perfect all the time
@@ZetaKeepTrickin that and do the little tik toks. It’s corny but necessary now a days. Little 10-15 second videos or clips marketing the song. Best of luck bro and consistency pays off! Imma do the same.
appreciate you but its just from a lot of conversations and just watching how artists move that tend to struggle vs those who don't as much. I read and think about a lot and try to present what i come up with to see if people relate fr
Can you pls make a video of how to set up a home studio and the equipments you need. I think learning to record myself can save money I spend on studio time.
i rap good asf im two years into beat making and my shit is bumping now and my song hooks are really good right now im thhing about taking this class on learning how to record from the biggest studio in my city once i learn how to record its game on i can do everything myself i can write for other people to make them beats and engineer the shit
I needed to hear that very helpful! does anyone has an idea of where can I find creative people that are hungry and want to progress in the music industry?
Nah people in the studio while im working is a big no no, unless youre a freestyle mumble rapper like lil yachty lil baby all them guys like having people around because their music is low effort but anyone who puts their all into music likes a quiet studio to hear themselves think.
so you think kendrick and j cole or hov are the only ones in the studio? nah doesn't matter the type of artist people have people in the studio. kinda crazy how you'd say that but you can't make your way of thinking better than someone else's that has more to show for how they create.
so just because you’re talented at something doesn’t mean you should work and learn how to build your fanbase ? stop being entitled, just because you’re good at shooting a basketball you don’t belong in the nba y’all tryna make in the music business without trying to be good at the business part
@@SKYJORDXN or y’all made the business the most important part when it’s not…most artist can’t even construct a good ear worm yet you want folks to have massive fan-bases with content and branding to the moon..
@Wandontrap if you’re wanting to make money then it’s gonna be about the business. Nobody forced you to make music that was a choice you made and you can make music as a hobby doesn’t have to be a career.
@@SKYJORDXN not disagreeing but forgetting what music is originally for and only focusing on the monetary value is degrading to the art…Yall encourage people to fight to push out useless content against algorithms that change daily”then say it’s not force” …we only people…we can’t keep up with a computer program designed to switch….
when it comes to marketing it’s more about learning your target demographic and getting down to specific areas and their other interests cuz most of the time artists just go too broad vs focusing on a specific niche/person. I’d recommend buying marketing books and understanding what makes people engage and then watch more marketing content/business brand building content and that’ll give you a better understanding but it’s something you gotta develop over time

Burn out is real especially when a lot get sold the dream of you have to do it all yourself

@@SKYJORDXN 🔥🔥🔥 great attention to detail Love the intentionality approach to things 🔥 thank you !
I appreciate you making this for ppl like me.
appreciate you watching fr
Definitely spot on with overplaying your own songs while mixing em and ending up with a pile of em, easily my worst habit

A lot of us just need to focus on ONE song at a time from start to finish.
That’s true

Who trynna make a song on BandLab!
I can afford a lot
Of pizza is crazy 😭😭😭😂
Not if you love pizza 🙂
Bro thumbnail is insane
maybe you right
💯
Producing, recording, mixing and promoting is insanely draining
do you ever find yourself having to take long breaks from music because you burn yourself out?
@@SKYJORDXN For sure it’s tough to stay consistent and active, you’re real for making making content like this to motivate ppl tho
@@SKYJORDXN bro I haven’t made a real song in a couple months in hop on bandlab and literally make one or two bars then get right back off 🤦🏽♂️
"Got to get out of dat entitlement" Heard dat. Like NoCap said: my music for the streets, so fuck a Grammy. Jus put out
the feeling of entitlement destroys a lot of artists before they even start
you tryna hop on a song jordan I got an open v
💯💯💯

Y’all gotta stop warping the message…it should only be about the talent is a true statement
so just because you’re talented at something doesn’t mean you should work and learn how to build your fanbase ?
stop being entitled, just because you’re good at shooting a basketball you don’t belong in the nba

can you make some cakewalk next videos please
does something change when you turn 30 lol?
you should know more than you did in your 20's to avoid making the same mistakes
@@SKYJORDXN fa sho but it's still kind of a trap imo, also who do you pay for marketing your music other than ads on blogs or social media platforms?
