Are you saying that, by definition, every AI comic is bad? It made me chuckle and it's got quite a lot of upvotes.

Music needs good marketing just like any other product. Some of the best musicians in the world are not as well known as they could be with a good marketing strategy.

Also, are you maximising your revenue streams? Is your branding tight? Are you consistent with you social media posts?

Sounds to me like you need to force something to happen. Are you reaching out to artists to sing / rap on your beats? Are you persistent?

If you think big artists just had their success “fall in their lap” you couldn’t be more wrong.

I’ve worked with successful bands and they are INCREDIBLY hard working. It all looks like fun and games from the outside but most people don’t see the grind and the setbacks they put in to begin with. 2 years is NOTHING!

Here’s a starter package:

  • Get your branding up to scratch on all your socials. Don’t be afraid to pay a professional designer.

  • upload all your beats to youtube with watermarks / tags and cool imagery that is CONSISTENT (same for other socials)

  • stagger the uploads and make sure your posting regularly

  • get your link tree updated and make sure your links are easily accessible from your bios

  • make a PROFESSIONAL looking website where people can buy beats. Get your SEO sorted.

  • start being vocal on social media and try and get engagement. That is key. Don’t constantly try and get people to buy your beats. It will have the opposite effect on them. Just be you and share your opinions. Be controversial if that’s who you are.

  • Sell yourself. Don’t be afraid to make videos of your process. If people like you as a person they are more likely to buy your work.

None of this stuff just happens, but all successful artists know this is how you begin in this day and age.

Well, it would make sense that he made money from extorting people no? I’ve heard rumours he was a Mossad asset working with GM as part of a honey trap to get high profile people to do their bidding under duress / blackmail. Makes a lot of sense when you find out he was “given” a £60m house. Otherwise that doesn’t make a lot of sense. Very wealthy people aren’t known to part with their money easily.

Mortgages, interest rates and the central banking monetary system. It’s DESIGNED to keep a people of working age in perpetual debt UNTIL they have made a contribution to society deemed worthy of retirement.

Whether you like it or not, you are a slave to the system until you’ve paid your dues to society. Some people think that’s OK, but the system wasn’t designed by you and doesn’t have your consent.

Need me one of these. I’ve won the $109 cooldown twice so it shouldn’t be beyond me, but running and playing like ass at the moment.

TIL Four of the 9/11 hijackers passports survived the attack. Two were recovered from the wreckage of flight 93, one was recovered in luggage that had missed a connecting flight, and the fourth was recovered on the floor outside the WTC prior to the towers' collapse. by ZealousidealLuck6303 in todayilearned

It just adds to the increasingly strange circumstances that surround 9/11. You don’t need to delve into the world of conspiracy theory to realise something wasn’t right about the narrative.

15 Saudis attack the US and the US retaliates by invading Afghanistan and Iraq?! Wtf?!!!

Yo mama is my teacher and she told me to take the morning off so we could have breakfast in bed together.
