This is a long vid but hope at least 1 person gets inspired by this and starts GRINDING! Like if that person is you 💯
Keep it up bro! inspire by you ☺️
Yo perfect time to watch this video, I just started my on Spotity page Lofi music. Search me "Love Last Forever".
it me
your transparency and authenticity has been key to me continuing to click on your vids. Thanks for all you do for the community! The volume game is so important. I'm releasing a new song every week this year in 2021, 52 songs and creating content around it. Hopefully it turns into something. I've had songs hit the 3 and 4 million mark on soundcloud and youtube but have never been consistent, so those plays never turned into followers. This year is the year!
Count me as one of the many that is inspired by this video.
What a goat
No you
For real!!!
@Dance Yoga Wellness greatest of all time😃
This is super inspiring bro. I've always thought that the only way to blow up is to get into editorial playlists but now I see the value of the algorithmic playlists. Thanks for sharing man!!!
No problem 🙏🏾🙏🏾
And proper personal branding.
OMITO!! Legends supporting legends. Can we make a dope The 1975/The Japanese House type track? We’d smash it
The can’t stop won’t stop until you make it “trait” is what I got from this video. Get it really glad to see you succeed!
Yup exactly do you and make those beatsssss
Bro you still in Atlanta doing movies/tv?? Its been awhile since we kicked it. Stay up fam
@@MADEMONEYSWAGG I am thank you brotha hope you are well!
L.Dre, thank you for always being so transparent! Biggup brother!
I got you 🙏🏾
The TH-camrs with 100k to 1m subscribers is where the gold is these days.
The 5 to 10 year grind before you hot big is what people either forget about or just don't want to acknowledge. I know I get that way sometimes so it's nice to be brought back to reality.
Facts 💯 4 years for me now ✊🏽
Your openness to talk about your grind and successes as well as your transparency has helped me a ton! Honestly I went from not being able to get anybody to hear my music.. I’m up to 16-20,000 monthly listeners on the regular. I really appreciate it! You’ve helped so many small time artists!
That’s amazing!!! Keep it up 💯
3:35 thank you so fucking much for being honest about the process before you blew up. I literally feel the same way. we develop skills and a catalog of content over time and when the moment comes, we're fucking ready to squeeze the fuck out of it. thank you so much L.Dre! you're an inspiration to me.
It’s a good day when L. Dre uploads 😌
Motivation acquired 🙏
Thank you for being so transparent.
Dope seeing you get these well deserved looks & playlist placements!
this is so inspiring!! your vibe is so good too
Você... Oi moça...
Best part was just understanding the entire breakdown! Love your focus (on chill beats) but also your tenacity of leveraging the different platforms to drive everyone to Spotify. Cray-zee!
Appreciate the transparency, as always. I have been enjoying your content for a while. Now in a place where I'm looking to get over the hump and pour more energy into my music. Keep grindin' is what I takeaway from this video. Have a clear strategy. No shortcuts. Let's goooo!!
just wanna say i love you straight off the bat. like your vibe, the way you explain everything, so down to earth and authentic. i've never heard your music before but this was in my recommended. there is so much I am taking away from this video and lots of things you are saying which are confirming what I believe will lead to a successful career - hoping to get there with my music soon as well. Now off to listening to your stuff on spotify
Yo that's amazing thank you, I wish you nothing but success !!
You are so lovely to listen to, needed this positive push! Big love
Thank you for your input L.Dre! I’m currently in the process of making new music and building my brand. I’ve only been making music for 2 years now and I only started releasing stuff at the last leg of 2020. To now know how important it is to prepare for the *BIG* moment, this video is a great reminder!
There is some great life lessons and advice in this. Thank you so much for being so transparent. Especially stressing how long you been doing this, and how not every song needs to get millions of streams. Thanks dude! 😀🎉
what i take from this video: even if shit does not look good now i can't force it. i just have to keep up my grind, give it time and be consistent and someday it WILL work. thanku bro 4 beein💞
Dope. Thanks for sharing bro. I am having similar success with Spotify (not as big as you) but my numbers have shot up as soon as I started making it into the algorithmic playlists. Now in a year I have over a million streams and still have yet to be placed on an editorial playlist. Keep creating.
Thanks for this video L.Dre it's refreshing to hear the pathway to success, you inspire me to keep going and continue chasing the dream of turning my craft into my career.
Yo, I have been watching your videos for a good minute now, and I gotta say, the journey has been real. This is amazing, got me hella motivated. Seriously happy to see your success 🔥
I really appreciate that you say that this came from a long time of just working on your craft and releasing stuff to slowly build. Not like, just spend a bunch of money on FB ads and that's all you gotta do! Super rad to see your progress!
Needed this man thank you for posting this and being so transparent
Been on TH-cam over a year now, and it's still slow. For all those in my boat or just starting: just keep grinding. You'll succeed. We got this. 💪
Thank-you! It's so refreshing to see a humble honest person giving sound advice. Credit to you! ❤️🙌
Been following you for a minute! Its crazy to see how far you’ve came! Much love fam! Keep it up! 🙌🏽
Dude, you've inspired me to finally jump into making lofi hiphop. I'm not that good or anything right now but I'm trying and that's better than not trying and regretting to have never tried at all.
Congrats on the success so far and the new setup bro 🙏🏽 Here to see what you got coming next 🤞🏽💯
Congrats on the 1M. Thanks for the helpful vid. Bless up
Thank you 🙏🏾
Always awesome info, plus your vibe is so chill, it’s a pleasure to be in your presence, regardless of what you’re talking about

So dope bro! Appreciate the transparency! Congratulations on all your success!!!
Thank you ! Saw your video awhile ago wasn’t sure about how to get onto Spotify. I got my first song out on Spotify thanks to a video I watched on your channel gave me a spark of hope thank you!
L.DRE, your videos get me inspired on the daily! thanks for the inspiration 🙏🏽
Great educational and inspiring video! No clickbait, just your honest and believable experience. I started making beats on Twitch last year and am planning to launch my TH-cam now. I've made music over 20 years and people like you give me faith in my capabilities in doing a total leap of faith into music production! The way you broke it down and showed how everything connects to everything and the importance of utilising several platforms was my favorite part!
I'm inspired and appreciate the consistent words of wisdom across all of your marketing videos: that the most important thing is getting the viewers to go to your songs on Spotify! Thanks bro!!!
listened to your episode with kyle beats podcast today and then got home and see this! straight gems
Awesome video. I've had consistent growth and started getting on playlists and spotify radio. Everything you said resonated and showed me to just keep doing what I am doing.
Love it man! Thank you for being so sincere. All you say here is wonderful
I love that you go into detail on this, your videos help me everyday! Thanks for the help and the inspiration. :)
Dude this is an awesome in depth video and great for other producers. Keep up the great work and cheers for sharing!
Thank you for the motivation bro. You're so real and authentic with this.. and I enjoyed watching. Keep it up
I've honestly been making beats for the last 5-6 years myself. But I never truly started posting and using social media till now. Your videos have always been a huge help to me and I will definitely be using these tips and tricks. I also make LoFi music (smaller artist), but I have been using your previous tips from other videos, and I can say they have been working. I have been getting added to smaller to large LoFi Spotify playlists and I have a few collaborations in the works with other artists from around the globe. Thank you for being my biggest inspiration L. Dre. Much love man!!
Thank you so much for making this video! So interesting and inspiring to learn about your musical journey! 👍
It's hard to make it as a producer without an artist. Much respect to L.Dre helping producers out
You made it a habit, stayed consistent and struck while the iron was hot. Thanks for the vid man, I love chill beats so you got another fan
I was just listening your music when the video came up. So glad that you blew up!
I loved this video, very illustrative, you explain everything very well, I was able to do it to the letter. Thanks my friend!
found u randomly on spotify a couple weeks ago. love ur beats bro. thank u for the knowledge
Thanks for sharing L.Dre.... very informative... all Kudos to you!
Great stuff bro, really inspiring 💯 Keep grinding 💯
yo
Real fan of your work ever since I thought one day Marries Life would male a good lofi track and boom there it was. Got you on Spotify a lot. Thanks man.
Shoutout L. Dre man for putting us on game. watching you the past week I’ve uploaded a beat tape and two singles. Sending blessing and positivity my guy🙏🏽💪🏽
Congratulations on your success man! really inspiring
Hearing the come up is super inspiring. You did the work before the work👏👏👏

Well done dude and congrats on those hits. Great video and awesome suggestions 🤘🏻
This is so inspiring, thank you so much for showing us all this! 💜
Love your song voyager man! Found you music trough Spotify radio. You are in inspiration man
love this!!! Needed to see this. I think im going in the right way
Bro you honestly have one of the best music producer/content creator career models in 2020/2021! This is amazing. Whenever someone tells me “you can’t expect to make money on streams”, I’ll show them this video. 👌
Awesome video man, love your honesty and transparency!
You are very inspiring Ldre! I can't wait to release my music on spotify! 😎🎶🎧🎛
your songs are nice and relaxing. I think you have a nice tone and your music is very suitable for a lot of listeners out there. I make dark techno and vaporwave and I find it hard to find my options to get those two different styles on Spotify playlists. One day at a time and will try to put into practice some of tips in your vid :)
Amazing video. Biggups LDre!
Congrats Dre. This is very inspiring!!
Your videos are always relaxing and encouraging.
Love your flow and I promise to keep up the grind !
L.Dre always dropping gems. Much love!

Congratulations 🎉 And thanks for this video. I really like when you said: “Is this a lot? No. Is this enough for me? Yes”. It’s really awesome you think like that. That’s why you are successful
That's really cool. Thanks for breaking this down!
That graph looks like Gamestop stock.
