Building a fanbase, one person at a time
 

Word...to all the emcees here...How many of you actively try to "win over" or "capture" fans?


I started at my job almot 2 months ago. I let 1 person hear my music. Then, through word of mouth, over 50 people there have either listening to my mixtape or bought it...

I opened up a savings account strictly for sales of my mixtape and other music...


Nothing comes out...

^^^Might be a good idea for some of y'all to save some DUCKETTS!


Get busy negroes!!!!!!!

nah for real i agree with you but in my case it feels like there just aint enough hours in the day to concentrate on both that and my education simulatneously

dope shit you big sexy man you. i got ya shit on my comp (which im not on right now) ive bin bizzy az shit lately, so im waitin till i can sit down n give it a good listen rather then just a song here n there.

but werd, gittin new fans iz ill az fuck. when i put out my album ima pay kids just to sit on tha busses n harrass tha people on them to check it out, hahaha, werd

recently dropped a mixtape.

made enough money to buy a new laptop, studio speakers, and a few other things. Word of mouth is a natural thing, its a good thing, but not the best thing to rely on for mixtape sales.

Actually, that is exactly what I am going to do with sales from both my next novel, and whatever I make on my mixtape.

It's going to go into a business account so that I can invest in the further promotion/production.

HAHA! LE!

How are them Oilers looking this year?

Lol fucking shitty to be honest with you.

I just write music that I like, if other people dig it, bonus. Music isn't supposed to be weak like Christianity and pushed/forced upon people. That's what MTV does and that's why people like 50 Cent, Kayne West, Gwen Stefani, Fall Out Boy, Akon, and many other wastes of good recording time.
