Besides bundles, what can artists do to get people to buy their music?

make good music

foster a dynamic in which a fan will want to go out of their way to support the artist. whether it's by consistent communication by social media channels, making good music, etc.

make an onlyfans

Bundles

Stop dropping mid

put it on GTA

Rap beef or rant on Twitter

Convince the general audience that you are a popping artist whether they personally like your music or not

All Future does is go on a tweeting spree and it works

Put artistic effort into their music videos. Alot recently just look the same and are forgettable

this is the most effective awnser: create a cult

kpop fans go out of their way to buy dozens of copies each just to support their artists, Nicki fans starve themselves spending their paystubs on her latest single

Die

I think if artists took a page out of politicians playbooks and canvassed their work around neighborhoods theyd get more plays

Simple stuff, pull up to a neighborhood and tell the good people about your album

Or maybe fly those small planes with the tag flying behind them with a qr code or some s***

Maybe do a commercial I know a lot of old folk watch cable tv, thats an untapped market!!!!

Damn

Collab with kelloggs and have your name on a box of wheaties like michael phelps

put effort into album packaging

I put it bluntly but it’s so true

1) Die

2) They've got to give as much as their real life as possible. People buy the act, not the music. So, whatever you can do to make yourself as personable as possible, as relatable as possible, whether that be vlogs, IG content, etc. grassroots s***.

In general though, buying music is a dying thing and it'll be virtually impossible in today's streaming era. No incentive to buy a product when I can stream it.
