Way too many inexperienced people in the music industry want to be the head coach before they’ve ever been on the field. Name me one professional sports head coach who never played the game and/or never worked their way up through the coaching system. I’ll wait…

Just watched a producer cross the $3 Million mark from publishing. No billboard Hot 100’s, no RIAA Plaques, no crazy “co-pub” deal. How? Well, he owns 100% of his work via an admin deal, and also has 100% composition ownership since he uploads instrumentals to DSP’s. The major music industry doesn’t care because it doesn’t feed their business model. But it does feed him and his family ❤️ So my question is; are you seeking recognition and approval from your peers, or do you wanna build a long term career that can feed generations to come?

An album is a movie, you dont start in the middle and you don't fast forward. Enjoy the experience.

The best time to understand ownership is before the work becomes valuable.

I thought I was done when the season ended. I wasn't ready to announce it, and I knew I needed some time to really decide, but I was pretty sure I played my last game. I was honest at that last press conference when I said I needed to look at myself and deicide if I still love

I was there and seen it too!
I don’t have to imagine that world. I lived it. When Kendrick was a developing act, he routinely engaged with fans on social media. He also acknowledged blogs and writers who covered and analyzed his music. He once wrote me a letter.

Waiting for a label to “find you” reminds me of 12-year-old me shooting hoops in my driveway, convinced an NBA scout was going to drive by and offer me a contract.

Music isn't a career you can sustain at a high level alone. The business side has too many specialized roles. You need a team.

You can search your own name via The Atlantic and “Ai Watchdog”.
WILD 🤯🤬.... Tech companies are using 54 OF MY SONGS to train and sell their generative AI models without compensation or permission from me. This list does not include the 1,541 songs that I'm credited as a Producer on for other Artists.

Producers, please do NOT do this. I was told a producer sold a beat via a complete buyout (both master/composition) for $500. The song now has almost 400 Million streams, and hundreds of thousands of videos (micro syncs) on tik tok, reels, etc... The producer gets ZERO ($0)!
