this guy is just telling it like it is–very informative vid-GREAT LECTURE–good advice, thank you
I still consider myself youth. Im 27
@Thenewyorkrock ….me either, at least not for songwriters. as long as the song is great/marketable, you can sell it. they will just get youth to perform it!
I’m a song writer, thanks for the info.
I dont agree with the age thing!!
For many times are tough. If you need to make some cash now here’s how you can do it every time

You should buy books on making it in the business (google/Amazon it). attend craft shows and seminars like the one u see here, meet alll kinds of people, attend talent shows (don’t be elitist, attend everything lol) and network network network. Read up bios of people who have made it and you’ll be surprised at how much work they’ve put into their work. Good luck. “Passion, Persistence, Patience and Professionalism” and you’ll succeed.
Can somebody help me I am a good gospel song writer and a good singer I need a good supporter to make my dreams come through in music
not if your young and beyond your age lyric wise
hahahaha……
you can’t read? go and put on some tom petty and run around naked. i still can’t believe you watch seinfeld. what a tool.
did you just say “your not a musician?” I know. you arn’t but, I am! I’ve been playing since the age of ten! I love pissing you off. it;s like I’m a sadist. more like a padist. XD
seinfeld,tom petty?
you are relly f**ked up in your head.
you are not a musician and you should not comment on anything musical.i hope you are not giving anyone advice.what dooshbag watches seinfeld you should really be practicing.
wow! you really know music. that’s why your going to make it into anything Tom Petty sold approximately 2.5 million copies in the U.S. it shows your lack of knowledge. I heard your bass playing not bad. unless, your trying to do music for “Seinfeld”
anyway pr is 98% of it and when you realize that then you might be on to something.
motorhead and tom petty suck anyway,if you want to make money there are easier ways.and if you think the 80’s are coming back your a
getting signed to a huge record deal is like winning the lottery.
I get your point! I’m a pianist… but, you think that musicians shouldn’t make a living for there music? YOU ARE A FUCKWIT!!! your a record label? I myself am as well GCR. but, you have to understand money has to come between something… if you want to be homeless and play on the street for 5 dollars a day be my guest. you think that Tom Petty or Motorhead really say “it’s not about the money.. it’s the love for music man!” HELL NO!!! it is about music. I am always finding music.
everybody needs money.
dumb ass i have my own label and every show i play i get a check three times a year.i get paid for every song i play and i get paid for radio play and i get paid from digital sales.its about 80% to me and the rest is there fees for providing the service.your problem is you have it backwards any musician waiting for a label to rob them is a fool and it sounds like you dont really know the game.every check i get its a blessing because i created something and the system is there to reward me.
Labels and “Publishers” Don’t pay you! Do you even know what you’re saying? Musicians PAY them. A percentage of the musicians sales and royalties go to the labels, which in return they pay studio/recording costs etc. You try playing a 20 show tour without being paid. I won’t be giving you a penny on the sidewalk. IT is about gifting, sure, and if you’re bloody lucky, money won’t be extremely necessary…But anyone looking for a job in the industry needs money. This is what is being said here.
music should never be a job it’s a gift if labels and publishers give you money for your art you are a lucky person.
Music CAN BECOME a job if you’re earning the money. He isn’t saying its ABOUT money, it isn’t, but If you wanna make music a living then you gotta make money with it.
its not about money.you want money get a job.
Ah well…sure the focus isn’t ON the money, but you need money to keep playing music for a living! Thats what “earning as a living” means, which is what this guy said!
