The more I watch this man's videos the more I feel the need to personally learn other facets of music like engineering and production

[@divaudofficial]

If anything, learn engineering! I promise you, that shit will save you so much time and money. Never looked back after learning to engineer myself. Your ability to drop will be unmatched. And you can use that skill as a service to others. To just do one thing in music makes you extremely vulnerable in todays space.

[@jmbeats3308]

Another mistake rappers make is not building and/or having a relationship with their fanbase. Without a real fanbase, you could struggle to sell (Lil Baby) as an example because you have nothing to offer beyond your marketability.

[@southpawsuni]

Getting caught up in how much gear one has, to do the work. Sometimes having bare minimum pushes out the best creatively

[@Ultimatum_MLE]

You hella consistent with high quality content bro, I get excited and jump to watch when you upload🔥🙏

[@KingDif]

Genius Like How you got yo own ad with your own merch in it, perfect branding we in the best climate to be diy 🔥🔥

[@electrofiyofficial]

I needed this

[@persynotes]

Not being present in the moment during the networking process. One of my biggest mistakes.

If we want to keep the Suits out of the Booth then we need to think like a Suit when it comes to business.

[@ruethemaker5069]

Honestly, I think that too many independent artists care more about the reception of what other people think rather than what they themselves think. Personally, I don't give a shit about the reception potentially received for a song I release, because I'm happy that I even accomplished making a song in the first place. If I'm my only fan, then so be it, I'll continue making the music I like.

[@PreciseDiff]

With precision!

[@torrencejerell9668]

Keep the suits out the booth! 🛠 💯

[@Scholar702]

A jack of all trades is a master of none....but often times better than a master of one.

[@ilovemusic34397]

As an independent artist it's hard not to be a master of none i have too much to handle to even get my song close to the standard of the industry.

[@xxrounds64]

6:50 I think this is why artists like Famous Dex and Rich the Kid fell off. I used to love their music and they had huge fanbases during the SoundCloud era. It is what it is tho

[@4utubestream]

Such a nice insight. I’m #DIYER I too love my freedom 🎉😂

[@steps2uccess]

Dam having the content ready is so key! Come with a full clip, I hear you 🔥🫡

[@eddykrow3536]

Thank u, how much do u charge 4 beats?

[@bandofpranksters]

Mistake #1: Lie about being "independent" (see: Chance) 😂

[@dointhesir.k]

So don’t put “baby” in ur stage name … noted lol

[@kingkyoga9263]

Too $hort! Greatest One Trick Pony in the History of One Trick Ponies

[@jstarks780]

👍🏾

[@arkitekmrj]

Besides life and family, the sophomore slump might be the reason Cardi B is taking her time on her 2nd album

[@freakylilg]

Think about this mentality "What do you wanna be when you grow up?" "Dead" Why dont i understand the rapper mindset?
