Super important...let me know which of these steps you want me to really deep dive so I can make follow up videos for you guys. Let me know as a reply to this video or in a comment.
Thanks a lot for great tips! Can you please make a video on being overwhelmed and what to prioritize? I feel overwhelmed working my butt of for the music, and at the same time trying to come up with content on two different platforms. Also, what are your thoughts on quantity vs quality in music?
Please deep dive into the best methods of music release strategy.
Hi Adam,
Great video.
Me and my bro are a Twin Break Dancing Rap group from NYC.
We would appreciate a deep dive on:
- music distribution outlets in terms of publishing
-music release strategies
And Monetization.
Appreciate the content !!
We plan to take a lot of your advice this year !!
Running a successful Patreon and creating income in other ways than just selling the actual music has been really my biggest wall. Selling typical merch feels super stale in 2023. Need to think outside the box, and like you said, "keep an open mind".
Monetization please
3:25 Funny you bring up the example of a documentary. I came across the documentary of Yung Lean nearly 2 years ago. Just clicked out of curiosity. And it instantly made me connect with him as a person, artist, and made me check out and fall in love with his music. I became his top 0.1% of listeners.
Fun fact: He inspired me so much, that I started making music myself. If you want so, you could way he made me 💙
That’s awesome man! I appreciate you sharing that story. Really inspiring.
Monetization is still my biggest challenge 🥶🥶
Thanks for your coaching Adam!! You are very wise and I will be using your advice for the upcoming release of my 11 song original album. I’ll be making music for the rest of my life now. 38 year old singer/songwriter with an amazing producer and vocal coach (lead singer of prism for 17 years). They both live 5 mins from me. My goal is to have 100+ songs professionally recorded in 2 years from now. That is 1 new song per week :)
I’ll continue to watch all your videos brother. Thank you for all your hard work!!
All great tips, well done! We're adding this to our music promotional tips playlist to push to the artists we work with. Keep up the good work!
Awesome! Thank you!
Hi, Adam! I've been watching your videos for quite a while now and I'm finally dropping my first pop-punk song tomorrow! I'm still putting together all my ecosystem pieces and learning along the way, and your content is helping a lot! Thanks! I'm so excited 🤩
Rock on!
So refreshing to watch, I’ve been on and off with my music career for years and have found it hard in the past to pursue. I think for me brand development and social media has been the hardest. It’s difficult to keep people engaged in what you do and it’s hard when you don’t have the natural charisma but I agree we just need to be ourselves. Thanks Adam for the inspiration and motivation! I’m going to keep trying!
Hi Adam, great to see you still smashing it on TH-cam and helping everyone in this community you've created.
Thank you Adam. What made me suscribed to your channel a few days ago, is your straight to the point step by step delivery. I am at the beginning of my musical journey, and your bite size explanations make it real. Going through 2022 :)
I truly appreciate it. Welcome to the channel family!
Brand development would be awesome for a rock musician
Hey Adam. I subscribed to your channel a little while back because you give out good, practical, usable information. I have just released a song exclusively on TH-cam a couple of days ago and a lot of my friends and family have checked it out. And that's about it. No surprise there. My music is instrumental saxophone for the most part. Some people call it jazz, but I know better because I know what jazz is. I just wanted to say that I liked the way you put up all your points near the end of this video. It looked like a vision board and it inspired me to create one to better understand how to start thinking about how I want to present myself as as a brand.
Good job Adam, your videos are getting better and better over the last couple of years. I love this one, very comprehensive. How about a bit more on brand development? Who are you and what are you trying to achieve?
Yo Adam! Love the video man, been subbed for a while and currently placing the last pieces into my puzzle, thanks to your content lol, it would be cool if you did a deep dive on Brand development!
Thank you for the great advice!
Independent R&B/Soul/Pop artist from Montgomery, AL!!! Ready to move forward!
This video popped up in my recommended list and I hit those like and subscribe buttons immediately! Happy to be here. I'm Steve, and I write for Indie games. Currently it's just a side hustle, but I'm pushing to do this full time one day!
HEY ADAM IM SHOUTOUT FROM HOUSTON TX!! been following you for awhile my music has finally matured to a point of releasing I do mostly Hip-hop/rnb/Trapsoul
Perspective changer indeed
Your channel is revolutionary sir🙏✨️🍃🔥
Glad you think so!
Contemporary classical/cinematic/minimalistic music :) Thank you for these videos, amazing help and advice really!
Love the content! thanks for sharing! Just dove into TH-cam about a month ago Creating hardrock/Metal as a songwriter, guitarist, drummer and i play a bit a piano. can't wait to see where this can go! keep up the great work!
My new and first single is coming out on July 7th, i've been following your tips for 1 week now and i've been seeing some results alreayd, it might not be a ton of new fans but I can totally say that you provide really good content and wisdom over the music industry, thanks a lot for that!
Oh, and i make metal instrumental songs btw:)
Thank you ADAM...for dis informative video....explained well...⭐️
There are a million guys out there teaching the same stuff.....yet I go to Adam every. single. time. Completely sincere and honest, no fluff, no pretention, just honest , useful information. Hes uiltimately trying to sell you something but you could barely tell, its so tastefully done. I honestly believe this is the greatest resource for any new musician in 2023. Thanks for all the free help, Adam.
Thank you for that. For the record I can be a smidge too opinionated sometimes which might come off as pretentious. Lol. And you're totally right. I am definitely trying to sell SOME of my viewers something. The truth is that everything I teach on TH-cam is aimed at beginners. My goal is to move the beginners into momentum with my free content and in the process earn their trust. From there I know that those who are serious will consider my Sell Music Masterclass program and once they enroll into that I'm able to work with them closer and teach the intermediate into advanced curriculum. I love every aspect of helping musicians though. I hope that shows.
this video was so well done & extremely helpful!!!
Thank You For Helping I Learned Alot!
Thank you Adam. I appreciate your work.
My pleasure!
1st! Thanks Adam! I make Afrobeats mainly these days but all styles really.
New sub here. I love the focus on the Attraction, Nurture, Promo mix. As an old Smooth Jazz artist, I'm learning about the content ecosystem. Thanks!
Music release strategy Thanks for the insight. I love the way you teach.
Glad you enjoy it!
Brand development would be a good topic to dive into. Sending love from India, really love your videos. Been super inspiring and helpful.

You’re welcome!
Great video awesome intelligent and strategically organized is your middle name
I appreciate it ty Mr. Ivy
I really appreciate your content!
Glad you enjoy it!
Hi Adam. Thanks for the video. Always informative. I'm a South African Death Metal guitarist,singer ,songwriter and TH-camr. Past bands Architecture of Aggression and BloodBeast. Currently band/project Bleeding Brutality. 🤘
whats good adam, thank you fo all da advice
No problem!
hey Adam Im Lwando from South Africa Me and My friends make Trap Music and they want me to act as their Manager I just started watching your videos and Im pretty eager to start implementing some of Music Marketing Strategies through Social Media I cant wait to see more content
Would love to hear about your perspective on "nuanced" musicians. i.e. people who aren't just a one-stop-shop for one single genre for the rest of their lives.
I'm a video game composer & singer-songwriter. While 90% of my singer-songwriter music blurs with my more cinematic/orchestral approach, I often find myself asking,
"How can I effectively be myself and brand myself AS myself when so many marketing courses will say that I'm doing it wrong because I'm more than 'one thing'"?
I'm going all-in as a composer & singer-songwriter with 0% shame attached. But it certainly makes marketing/etc. more challenging!
I appreciate your notion of origin content
That anticipation joke was awesome 😂😂 went back to hear it again, let’s go rocky horror🎉
I make hip hop and I really appreciate your videos!
Sweet 🤘
Ok you're my Guy. Ill be back. Im signing up fors Distro kid.
Hello Adam. I've been following you for 2-3 years, never having enough courage or hope to actually follow through with your advice. I write rock music (more specifically a little bit of rap mixed with rock and metal) and I'm a girl from Iran, where girls are banned from singing and rock music is also banned. Thank you so much for putting these videos out there. I would've been way more lost trying to navigate this industry without you and your videos.
Please do a deep dive on music distribution outlets and brand development. Thank you so so so much 🙏🏼🩶🥹
Will do! Keep following your dream, the world is changing and hopefully you can be a catalyst for change in your part of it.
anticipation edit was dope! see what you did there
😂 levels to this man
Thank you for saying: "You're going to be a big deal one day."
For me, I would like the deep-dive on brand development. Thanks! :)
I make UK Drill music mostly. :)
great video we learned a lot we make Latin Punk / Alternative Rock we are on all streaming platforms and each band member is registered with ASCAP as a songwriter yet we have a lot of work to do... we have a better game plan thanks to your videos
Killin it everytime
Thank you! 🙏🏼
@@adamivy nah bro... Thank you🤘You've inspired me these last 4 years to step up my game, knowledge, and music. Mad respect 💯
Hi Adam
I really enjoyed this video as it broke down the process in easy digestible sections. Videos like this really help.
I am in the process of assisting a heavy metal band with their socials.
I would like to know if you have I video that dives into brand development and if possible with practical examples
I can imagine it's one thing to post images on social media but I guess I get confused on how to attract people to your socials
Again really appreciate your channel
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this video, took a lot of good notes as a singer/song-writer. I make R&B/Pop/NeoSoul
You’re welcome!
Hope this helps me, Singing and music is something I want to pursue and have been practising for some time.
Most confused about, is how to legally protect your music and feel safe about releasing a song into the world or a cover song.
Also just finding my own sound as mostly I learn other people's songs and struggle to find my own passion for original songs. I know I have it in me, one day look out if I release a song :)
thanks a lot for this video
You are most welcome!
You make the most realistic advise video's for artist
I appreciate that man. Thank you.
I make electronic, rap, and alt rock music. I take a lot of inspiration from artists like Owl City, NF, Russ, and Panic! At The Disco. I'm excited to apply the things you talked about here. Thanks man. 👍
Nice work!
Hi i just started a new channel. I really want to make it in music and this advise really opened my eyes to what's coming
Monetization! Also, how to achieve the most in the least amount of time. I’m definitely not shy of hard work, but I got about two hours per day for myself, if I dont spend any time with my significant other haha 😅
I make trance and hard house , 8 releases from Ireland this past year and a half albeit small labels :)
Good Day. Just discovered your site 10mins ago. I reside in the metro Chicagoland area ~ where there is a high concentration of talent. Just found out two wks ago - that we have a Chicago Chp Grammy up here. Along w/ other mini “Hollywood” outlets. I love what you said about supporting the “brand” of the Artist & not just the A/R. I’m not getting any returns on my outbound efforts. I could greatly use the help with breaking into the industry. Just signed-up for a briefing for your Mentorship Program.
Awesome! Once oyu talk with my team we can figure out how to make that happen for you!
Okay bet. Im going to do what i need to do.
What's sup Adam, I definitely liked these great tips. I'm from Flint, Michigan but now I live in Atlanta, Georgia following my dreams. I'm a new coming independent recording gospel artist. I got my first album called ''In This Place" already out on every platform with some songs. I'm definitely needing a lot of help on every topic that you put out right now because I'm trying to be successful in my music career.
Thank you
Start from the top please 🙏, from BRAND DEVELOPMENT. Thanks Adam, your a hero
I’ve been producing since I could walk. I’m 36 years old now and haven’t made a penny working for my dream.. it has been the craziest thing to think about, that I am either more talented than most ppl I come in contact with on a daily basis, yet I don’t make nearly as much money as them and struggle.
Oh yea, I forgot to mention, I was addicted to drugs my entire 20s which led me to prison for 5 years!!
Is it so much to ask to simply support your family with something you love to do? I’m not even greedy.. I just want financial stability and to reach the world with my beats!
I mean my beats ARE THE NEXT BIG BREAKTHROUGH!!
If there anyone here that can point me in the right direction… I just want to provide for my 1 year old and start my career!!
I’m way to talented!!
And I’m sure others can relate!!
Rap is my genre…
I believe focusing on goals, is always easier said than done; and would like you to, please, expound.
music release strategy would be a great video topic......Great video! Im a producer
Loving the content ! How would you advise about physically developing consistency using tools such as AI for artworks for track releases etc.
Or do you suggest paying a content creator or brand designer and if so how would you go about that?
I make electronic dance music and right now I am focusing on my music quality standard. I have just got to a point where I am proud of my work and now looking at brand development and release strategies long term.
hey adam love the content you make and you are very helpful with all the music marketing. i make rnb/pop music and always having trouble on what to post on my social media that would get people to really connect with my music because i make music about the world hence why my stage name is Sosiety and i do make love songs as well but i just need some tips on what can help me get ideas to make content and share with the world
Dive into the videos on my channel and the ones I'll be dropping in the future. This channel is filled with those tips and ideas you are looking for.
thanks dad
ANTICI.........PATION! GOOD ONE!
Thanks, My Next Single Will Impact Lives around the World in 2023 - Andy

😂❤ i really need to get in this industry fr 😅
music release strategy, is what I am researching.
I make acoustic/rock/metal hiphop stuff,,thanks for the vid
music release strat, brand development, Content ecosystem. i want you to go deeper on those please man
I’m confused most about brand development. I don’t want to make content that will negatively impact people.
Brand development won't negatively impact people if done properly.
Releasing strategy for me , the best aproach for artists with less than 1K fans. How to get suggested by YT too
Hip hop rap music poetry
Marketing sauce!
Greg is a real one right here!
I make electronic/dance music (house, techno, synth pop, drum n bass etc.)
I'd love to get the marketing sauce from Adam

"I'd love to get the marketing sauce from Adam" ❤❤❤
👊
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Hi Adam, What advise would you give to somebody who's gonna launch his first song on his fresh TH-cam-channel (and nowhere else). What not to forget? (And do you have a video on this subject?) Thanks in advance!
Embrace the journey, set your expectations that it will take time to grow and get a buzz. You most like won't get a ton of views at first but that's part of the process.
I've rlly been wanting to know how much I should know before delving into the music industry as an artist. I don't have any connections in this industry I've just been a singer and songwriter since I was 10. just as a foundation, what should I know to be able to propell myself without leaving important gaps?
Hi adam. I've been following your channel for a while. Love your content and I do plan to learn use your services/courses one day but I know my music isn't ready yet. I'm still practicing and getting myself music quality better which you said is absolutely the most important part before marketing and all the other things come into play.
May I ask are there books/courses that you recommend to learn about getting better at rap?
Learning how to time beats better
Better Cadence
Breath control
Learning pro tools
Learning how to record/mix master
Learning how to make beats
(All other things that I can't think of lol)
Are there courses/books/channels or anything to learn this stuff from scratch?
The best advice I can recommend is to surround yourself with others who already have the skills and learn alongside them.
@@adamivy I understand what you are saying. Networking and I've done my share bit of it but the problem is sometimes people don't share their secrets (which I understand. They can't share everything for free so im definitely the type of person that puts my money where my mouth is)
But I've tried learning from others and will continue to do so but I also try to learn a lot for myself. So far I've learnt a lot from online courses. Sites like Udemy, Skillshare, LinkedIn Learning, Even youtube is great but the problem it is so disorganized etc
So I'm asking you if you recommend anything else? Books/Courses/Online sites?
I compose mostly orchestral/cinematic music.
The constant clicking sounds and screen changes are really distracting but I made it to the end...interesting
Thank you for the feedback. We’re constantly experimenting with editing styles to increase engagement and retention.
