Music Fans Reign Supreme

Record companies are losing their footing.

Artists are gaining more control.

But fans? Fans reign supreme!!!

Like never before, the control is lying in the hands of the music consumer.

2 main problems:

1) They don’t know they reign supreme, because record labels still corner music marketing

2) If they do know, they don’t know what to do with that power

NOW THAT YOU DO KNOW, WHAT SHOW YOU DO???

YOU HERE GO MUSIC FANS…

1) BUY the music

2) BUY the merch

3) Interact online, engage in the comment section

4) SHARE the music & content

5) USE their song in your reels and stories

6) Stream, Stream, Stream

7) Leave reviews on Apple

8) Go to their live shows and meet them

9) Tell people you love them

While you may think these things sound small and easy, they make a WORLD of difference for an artist's career.

You are the bread and butter of this industry, hats off to you!!

What you may not realize is that fan engagement is monitored by all the music supervisors and social media outlets. The more engagement, the larger the opportunities that become available to the artists you love so much. How cool that 80% of supporting indie artists is free! When you buy a t-shirt, a single, or help with a fundraiser? Bingo bango, you can call yourself a super music fan.

Artists everywhere thank you from the bottom of their hearts. Everything an artist does is precisely and entirely for you. Above helping our careers push along, what matters even more is how the music has touched you. Why are you such a devoted fan? When you share that story, or what a lyric or show meant to you. That's the real deal. That's the gold. It's safe to say I can thank you on behalf of all artists, signed or indie for all you do to make a connection in return.

Remember, the industry is shifting, and you are at the top. Fans reign supreme.

Love,
