i was definitely not signed by the time my first singles were “blowing up” i think this and the other “paid” label input assumptions is sumn i’m keen on clearing up cos i fully spent a whole year trying to use tiktok for my benefit music wise only to fail many times a year before anything ended up getting traction. i simply found a formula that ended up working consistently and it is as simple as that my g and the rest is history 🤣

@johnwaynefreshhome work with Vegyn please and thank you
idk id say there's still plenty of merit to going the (can't believe this is old now) old way and just growing a community on soundcloud. TikTok fame means people know u and ur famous, but it doesn't mean u actually have a lot of fans. In other words, once ur 15 minutes are up, or if anything even the tiniest but cancellable comes out, ur f***ed. The slayworld guys built their fanbase entirely off the quality of their music, just persistent spamming on ig, cross platform promo, etc. and so when kankan is literally arrested for domestic abuse, it barely affects him lol
no for sure yeah, i just mean like getting your foot in the door. even the social media tiktok route isn't really overnight, it takes time and either their following or the algo makes em blow
your personality and quality of content is what will decide if it's 15 minutes or some years. once your getting big shows /festivals or brand deals though, i'd suggest seizing as many opportunities so you can at least get bread and save some in 401k or mutual funds
both are fine, i'm just saying the internet has made it possible and only easier to not need to go the old school route. social media, imo should at least be a part of your strategy, cause that's money and publicity your just wasting and missing
he definitely had a ktt1 account
dude was a nicki minaj stan troll on twitter for years
fr, i just know so many mfs in the music and fashion industry had to have been on here or lurked
it pains me seeing ppl still see it lol
like my homie is the type. they're taking themselves too serious and logically and business-wise it just makes sense to go popular and blow and then maintain popularity and grow that and income with albums and shows
this became evident to me during the soundcloud rapper era with x, ski, lil pump, trippie etc. like you don't need to be curating serious projects to blow, you're wasting time and money tbh.
also, any time a new and popping social media platform happens, or just some type of huge mainstream thing, like fortnite, i'd suggest hopping on it early, you can change up your content later on. called it with tiktok but was too p**** lol worrying about looking corny
Worrying about looking corny and not being respected as a great artist was/is the main thing holding me back rn i cant even lie.
like all the work just to be put in a box like that. But im seeing that its part of the game, and if the music really hitting like that, it will last regardless
wild
Gotta get her verified
fr, i just know so many mfs in the music and fashion industry had to have been on here or lurked
they are, i met my first manager on ktt1, whenever i meet someone in the industry like that and i tell the story i can read on their face if they've been on here or not lmao
also worked w/ producers who have been on here (not like i met them on here, like they just told me they're on here too)
i mean it makes sense, its a v specific interest forum

i hate how cliche it is lol. like it's just another form of failing before you even start cause you're too worried about how you're perceived or the idea of failure
fr, let your content speak, there will be ppl that like it, and then hopefully something causes exponential growth, cause tons of youtubers and businesses have shown, the early stage is the hard part, after that growth just becomes more and more rapid as long as you don't stagnate or f*** up
