1. Make Sure Your Music Is Consumable
Before you prep towards promoting your music, make sure it is consumable, meaning, your music should be good enough not some wack sh*t.
How do you know your music is good enough? Get feedback from respected people in the industry first. Build relationships with producers and ask them if they like a track. Once at least 60% of them think it’s worth sharing, take that as a go-ahead because producers will be more critical than your fans.
2. Be A Brand
In the process of promoting your music, you have to learn to be a brand cos’ it also gets beyond singing.
You should see that you’re not just a musician or a band member but that you are a product. This product has to be as appealing as possible, so you have to find a way to make your brand as unique and exciting as you can so that fans are excited about you and your music.
3. Have A Target Audience
The truth is no matter how good a singer or rapper you are, your music can never be appealing to everyone so you should have a target audience. Know your kind of music and the demographics of audiences that will appreciate such music.
