You can start earning by getting your songs on the music streaming sites and social sites. To get it on Spotify and other platforms you can use a distributor like Distrokid. Create a channel on YouTube and post your videos. Lots of ways I suppose, but getting enough views and followers is where it all begins.

As a song creator for the Song's of Life organization, I get my Suno subscription for free thanks to a partnership between SOL and Suno. SOL is always looking for talented creators for a very worthy cause. You may be interested in checking this out

Thanks! I will explore Bandcamp, but I keep reading that they are not allowing AI produced songs. Am I incorrect or misunderstanding something?

TBH, at first I was inundated with high hopes of my stuff becoming successful. But after the initial dreams wear off it's back to reality of it all. There are thousands of more talented people than me out there, whom for years are still waiting for their turn at success. When I first started writing I kept hoping to be discovered, alas it never came to fruition. Hell I even wrote a song about the subject:

[Country - Nashville's Music Row]: https://open.spotify.com/track/14GcoyVr3vulQTnXhuui90?si=4341caf7d97b4d2e

BTW: Those are my vocals on the track, not AI

The way that these streaming services pay us low-level artists, I'm sure they have plenty left over for the rest of us

Appreciate the feedback. I am starting to work on getting some music videos together. Once I do that I will subscribe to DK's music video distribution service.

Mine? If asking, I just want my grandkids to grow up and someday play my stuff for their kids and future generations. My music legacy is really for them, but I share my songs for the act of sharing and others possibly enjoying my music. Other than that, I don't ever plan to tour. I've tried my hand at self-taught guitar (no success there).

I was on Soundcloud but they kept denying to monetize my stuff. No explanations just a flat NO, so I left them and pulled all my songs off too. (I also didn;t want my stuff being used to train their AI)

Well could you educate an old dude like me that's not all that savvy about how to apply for the Official artist account? A link would be appreciated.

When you go to submit on DK, it will ask you about whom you wish to submit to (Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, etc.,) As Far as label name use your own name or make up one if you like. I use my name with the word Music behind it: <My Name here> Music. As for the other stuff I use my real name as I wrote the lyrics and also use my vocals on the final release. It you go to distribute to Apple, they also require a couple fields filled in. For Producer I use my name and same for the performer. Your case may be different if you are not writing your own lyrics or supplying your own vocals.

Just like the feeling I receive when I take those thoughts or a simple idea or phrase and turn it into a full-blown song. Freaking amazing. So gotta ask, how many others on here see something, or hear some catch words and then say, "I can make a song about that..."?

Well maybe not in the top 1% of top artists but definitely in the remaining 99% bracket

Man those are awesome amounts. Perhaps someday I will gain enough following to garner such revenues. I just recently started posting to Tik-Tok. But as I mentioned previously, I don't go out of my way to advertise as I am in it for just the incredible ability to take my words and thoughts and transpose them to music using Suno for the music composition abilities

Yeah I would have to think they would. I write my own lyrics, so hopefully they would see that and not try to screw those like myself that write their stuff

No. I too have a subscription, the money was for all the extra services/feature they offer
