    Binge watching your old videos and this one is good bro . For the longest I was just posting links and cover arts cause I felt weird writing a caption that told a story of the song. Now I understand the people that read and respond to my captions are the people I should be focused on 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

    One of ways I found success in promoting my content is by telling my immediate followers on Snapchat that I will shout them out if they follow me on all my social media. After doing so I reach out to each and every one of them and tell them I appreciate their support and to keep in touch if they need advice or want my opinion on things outside of just music. Overtime they then feel invested enough to the point were they will support you no matter what you do because they genuinely support and care.

I know Curtiss and plenty other people have tutorials about how to mix your music. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. I'm not trying to discourage you just with the tech these days people expect high quality. You got this!!

    Awesome inspiration bruh. I was instructed to do everything you said(in my spirit) a few months ago. Only problem was that I had a few things I had to get in order in my life first before I could start the wheels to that part of my ministry moving again. But now, as things are settling in order, seeing this video revived me again. I salute you. Keep up the great work.
    That was right on time.

    What I do to keep sharing ideas is I post on message boards. I also have two blogs that I write messages on. I also share all of my content on social media like twitter, facebook. I also filled up all of my profiles with links of my work. Usually I tell people if they want to learn more about me and my work they can take a look at my profile. There they will find links to everything that I do online. It's helped a lot. I find that profiles are like business cards. They share a lot of things that you can't share anywhere else.

Can I still upload my songs that have sampled material in the beat for streaming sites ? Or do I still have to get the sample cleared for distribution . I've been confused about this . Please help .

    Hey Curtiss, first of all, I just want to thank you for all the knowledge and support you have given the producer and rapper community!
    You’ve been very helpful and I absorb what I can from you. So I got a problem I’ve been dealing with as of late. I feel like a I got a lot on my plate and I’m starting to lose track of what I should be prioritizing. I’m a producer and a rapper, plus I’ve got some people I want to produce for. How do you balance everything? I find myself losing a lot of time being a bit overwhelmed and not doing anything. How should I go about this? Should I split my days and dedicate them to these certain tasks? Like take a day or two to make tracks for myself and write lyrics? Then another day or two to produce these people, a couple more to make beats, and the last day or two of the week to master things? It gets hard, because I work a full time job and I’m trying to stay active going to the gym. There’s only so much time in a day and I need to sleep somewhere.
