Hey everyone. Do y’all have any tips on how to deal with writer’s block ? And also what do y’all do when you hear a beat you really like but sort of have nothing to say ?
@Reeze Tyler listen it's completely natural! my tone with that was, "I support you." I'm affirming you in that, what you hear when you hear Kendrik is his FINAL draft, after the editing. so don't feel intimidated because your first draft isn't as good as his final draft. I'm sure if you read his first draft, you'd realize it's imperfect too. your story deserves to be told. your art is worth listening to. be encouraged, fellow artist! keep creating, improving, editing, and sharing your work. who knows, someone will be inspired by YOUR art and think "wow, I wish I could create something that amazing".
Hey y'all, I'm going through the content strategies and was waiting for the answer to this question. It was never explicitly mentioned, so I thought I'd ask it here, (just in case anyone else had this question): what are pre-saves? why do they matter? what is the benefit of getting people to pre-save the music? Is it just another way to keep your art on people's radar? Or does it have more value than that? For me, understanding what things are and why they matter contextualizes the advice we're getting. I believe there is a good answer for this, and I'm not anti-pre-save (again, I have no idea what they really do or why they matter, so I'm neutral). I'm looking forward to reading your responses. Cheers. Z
Hey guys I am an artist/producer using FlStudio and Garageband. I'm down to collab with others on projects. Heres a link to some of my work. Nice to meet you all! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kiU8GASLA8
yo, as someone who had to make my own beats for my albums out of necessity... I respect this on another level. THIS IS GOOD! please send me something, I'll DM you my e-mail.
Hey everybody. I wanted to know how y’all manage to consistently finish your songs and make content to promote these songs at the same time. Thanks in advance for your answers.
I find I have to split it up. I self-produced my album and was learning how to, in real time. So I had to use all my brain power for that lol. When I finished my album, THEN I started promoting (interviews, getting onto playlists, etc.). I took breaks between each thing, though, which makes a HUGE difference in the quality of the work (cause it's hard to create when you're burnt out). Now that I'm going through the classroom courses, my music is already done, and I've had enough of a break that I have energy to move onto the next phase. So, long story short, get the music done first. Make sure it's to your liking; don't rush that part. Take a break to celebrate your accomplishment. Then get it out there. Obvi, if you're following a particular strategy, release your music according to that timeline. But my advice is, just get the music done & have it on you before you start promoting.
Just on some real talk, I found that ideas for content come through listening to my music as I go through my day. Even just singing my own songs without the track. I start thinking, "this would sound cool if I performed it like that" or "what if I made a TikTok / shorts series on cool date ideas and have this love song I made in the background?" ;)
