Shit like this is why people should simply not join record labels as they are simply there to rip you off and why people should focus on self - promotion besides if being a musician is what you want to do with your life you should have more than enough time to develop your career so the idea that you need record labels to help you is simply outdated at this point.

Sucks 😂 I was looking forward to this one

Super good video! It truly is made to inspire not demotivate. Well done man! I’ll be sharing this video with my students

My dad taught me that there is NO money! There is debt. Real constitutional money is gold and silver!! We cannot pay things off free and clear because the dollar is fake, Monopoly money. That’s why we have inflation, shrinking monetary values, and the fed is not governmental, it’s a family owned company created by “The Creatures from Jekyll Island!!

Lord!! Insane! “Just bend right over, and it’s gonna hurt really bad, but you are signed!”That’s what I just understood from this video!! Well explained🎉❤

Anybody work with Indie Roadmap?

Pmc you’ll still need a sub

Can I talk to Wendy? Prophetic business to build

Sweet vid

Yep you're 100% correct... integrity... and pretty much all famous musicians don't have it after they signed that contract... i knocked back a contract years ago because what I had to do to get the fame and money... I'm outta here... and while I'm not rich and famous, I do have my own pride and integrity intact... but that's me, some people aren't happy or content being just small game... but at the end of the day, even the simplest thing in life come with a price, it's just how much a price we are willing to pay... I've been a pro muso for 30 years... and to this day most of us gigging artists are still waiting up to a month to 6 weeks to get paid for that gig we did... I can obviously only speak for my country of Australia... but that's pretty much how it works here in Oz if you get a gig... it's a 4 to 6 week period to get that payment after you did the gig... any other normal job here in Australia is usually a week or 2 to get paid, but the music game is totally different, and if you kick up a storm about it, then you get a bad rep... so you put up with it, to get those paid gigs... like I said, everything comes with a price... and the higher the bar you set, the higher the price and your integrity... it is what it is...

Tangible steps of action...crazy concept lol. This is GOLD!!

at around 50:47 Wendy asks him to put a link to "Circa's video" ?? But when I click on the shownotes link it takes me to a page 'Ruh-Roh That page doesn't exist" . Can somebody / anybody please let me know who/what she is talking about ? Who is Circa? or is it Cirque? etc .. and does anyone have that link pls and thanks??

Read a piece yest how Pete Townsend saw Jimi Hendrix b4 his death & Jimi was 'broke'. Pete mentioned how crooked these music biz folks are unscrupulous, beter informed & will deff have tried to get ALL an artist's $. Happened to the Who & so many others.

Thanks man!! Great info!!

Experiment with Power Automate which is basically free from Microsoft, or I know Roboforms used to basically do the same thing. It allows you to automate tasks you would do through the menus, so you don't necessarily have to code at all to create some automation that would at least get rid of the sucky part for you.

LoL so they are just basically crooked loan sharks with a theme of - music industry. Well at least I don't feel bad now for never going after a music career despite enjoying dabbling with stuff for fun. Sounds like a whole lot of no thank you I avoided ha.

Brilliant episode!!

Well, I'm delighted I was passed over many years ago by record companies lol

Interesting topic. I usually research Google trends for "weight loss" and see celebrity gossip. I like to take interviews where they talk about how they did it and relate it to my health coaching method. It boosts my traffic

Fantastic discussion and insight

I am more interested in growing audience in email list and website growth

Great info, thank you! Does this video only apply to Tik Tok or could you do IG alongside this as well?

Check out the documentary by 30 SECONDS YO MARS called “ARTIFACT”. They cover much of this type of stuff they’ve gone thru with their label.

This is a great idea if you are a political artist. If you are not consistently political then I would steer far away from talking about anything political or newsworthy.

I really enjoy these guys content I've been following that for years. 75% of the time I agree with them. However, this video makes me start to wonder if Jack is an Android because he doesn't move very much😂

that comb over is nasty work

I agree with you that the labels and big companies have not really been profiting and they might be going to zero but they were never the music industry in the first place The music industry was always with the artists going on tours and in 2023 the top 100 tours are up 46% in profit from the previous year The labels might be going away but the thing that always been an artist on the road will always remain

Lowkey you're spitting marketing game and I'm here for it lol I'm def gonna revisit this in the near future!

anyone can create a crypto and anyone can create an NFT. it doesn't solve anything, the only people who befit from Crypto are the founders and the largest holders. its legit a scam just make ur own chain and re-create the NFT on your chain XD Just register your own IP to yourself XD Ifu on a blockchain, guess who your making wealthier, not the artist, the Large holders of the crypto. XD every crypto enthusiast is wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, (you have to by my tunes tokens, to buy Jhonies NFT, the more people by my Tunes tokens, the more "Value' I make cause I own all the tunes tokens XD XD XD ) as soon as people don't want "Tunes tokens" anymore, your fucked. RIP the value of ur NFT XD crypto is a ponzi

Thank you! This is a video I’ve been looking for, but couldn’t find!!! What’s the best platform to use for gated content? For example, a song that will never be released publicly. What platform would I go through in order for them to download it after signing up for my email list?

THEN you make it- make the money back then they take years to pay you or "do accounting" stay indie bb

Do you guys even know of ICP Internet Computer protocol?

Thank you guys🙏🏾 droppin real gems!

Great advice

You had me until, “You’re better off getting a bank loan”. Hey artists, if you are reading this, no, a bank loan (if you can get even get one for $150k) is not better than a record deal for $150k

Really enjoyed the video

This is the second comment,,,

Valuable information underrated podcast

You know what you are talking about dude,,,

But the labels have connections to put your music in the mainstream. Adding it to radios, playlists, putting you on tours, connecting you to industry professionals. Collaborating with other artists in the same label. Putting you on their page. It is IMPOSSIBLE to do this alone. Yes you could get a loan but that's not all a record label does. You are leaving a lot of this out

bro said creating music is a sub process and that made me realize how music education should actually be taught.

This is exactly why understanding contracts is crucial for artists! Excited to learn how record labels operate from Circa's perspective.

Guys.. i'm looking desperately for a link to your website/services/... 😂... please dont forget to add it, you're making it hard for us to find out more ;-)

Imagine trying to earn money making music in 2020s. It was impossilbe in late 2000s-early 2010...

Love you work guys. Question - the concept "Breakout material" Keep making content until you strike this Breakout Material. Prove organic traction on two channels before spending money on content ads etc.Question being - What metric defines something as breakout? How many views / likes / comments / shares etc etc warrants something as breakout material? So helpful!

Least accurate use of the word arbitrage I have ever encountered, an arbitrage is an risk free realization of a mispricing among two or more markets. The word you are looking for was “exploitative”

I can write you a script and slap it in a web page to do that email nonsense that you are spending 8 hours on.

If you do the work of inventing an intellectual entity (song, book, etc.) it IS your property. Yes, the Government should protect it from punks who have no respect for the work, and I do mean work, that people have to do, to create an interllectual work. Just because you can steal, doesn't mean you should. His opinions are those of a spoiled entitled young man. Do you ever use your real name ?

This video should be required viewing for all artists. There are several truths in this video. Well done.
