There’s no single formula, but these are my best practices for 5-year artist growth:
1. Get better at your craft
2. Build a catalog (release songs!)
3. Develop your sound, brand, & overall aesthetic
4. Find your audience
5. Own that audience (first party data)
@BrianZisook if you could make a formula for artist development/growth say over 5 years. What would it look like?
e.g. every 12 months: 6 singles + 5 shows + 12 pieces of content for each single + 2 pop ups + 4 song collabs + 2 tour opening slots
can this lead to success?

You don't have funds to push music.
You lack network or connection.
You're not signed to a label.
And you don't want to be active online, putting yourself out there to attract what you don't have.
Any Artist who desires to be seen and attract opportunities, but choose not to create and post content consistently is not serious.
My dawg josh jorrin just released some 💪🔥

MUSIC INDUSTRY PRO TIP - be nice to everyone!
You'll encounter a lot of different kind of people at different levels in your career.
Some will be junior.
Some will be more senior.
Some in the middle.
Don't just be nice to those in positions of power...
Be nice to the interns, entry level team members, etc.
Don't just be nice to the director...
Be nice to the PA, sound person, lighting person, etc.
Being a genuinely nice and good person is underrated and can take you far.

Don’t know what rapper needs to hear this, but, Unless you super famous or lit or sumn, when yall do that lil mysterious, unfollow everybody except one person thing, it really hurts your brand and connections. Don’t shoot the messenger.
