Approximately the first 34 minutes are about Chris, his book, Ruffhouse Records, and old school hip hop from Schoolly D to the Fugees. The second half of the interview we dive into music business advice for artist. Chris’s Book: Ruffhouse: From the Streets of Philly to the Top of the '90s Hip-Hop Charts Mentioned Book: The History of Gangster Rap: From Schoolly D to Kendrick Lamar Songs mentioned: Coolin in Cali (audio) - 7A3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmBIW-XRs7c The Piper (Video) - Cheeba https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-OEmg0bi7I Typical American (Video ) - The Goats https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_F2FDpU1mM Mentioned Stories:: Chris swiping Schoolly D’s phone number from a rolodex Schoolly D and Chris become neighbors The Goats received more fan mail over a 15 year period than all the other Ruffhouse label mates combined. You can be dropped by the Amercian branch of a label and still have huge success overseas. Wyclef Jean taking off all his clothes and performing in his boxers during an office audition. Music Business advice for artist: In the era of mumble rap, does great song writing still matter? If you aren’t creating your own market, you’re just following. The greatest way to perfect the craft of songwriting (or anything really) is to network with other songwriters. Don’t torture people you want to connect with by spamming them with your music. His label never got a demo in the mail and signed that artist. The secret is YOUR NETWORK! Less is more. Don’t send a demo with 14 or 18 songs. No one has time for that. Send 2 bangers. Make sure you send a photo or video with the demo. You have to sell the label before you every sell to the general public. Major distributors are looking for 20 to 30 million hits on streaming/social media/YouTube. Get Online to Get Offline. The entertainment business is a relationship business. We are a singles driven music culture. Singles not albums. The missing element of A&R. Man artist haven’t developed live show skills in this era. Touring companies are creating small venues in order to develop artist. Put together a focus group! Matthew Knowles holds a grudge. Will AI put beatmakers, producers, and musicians out of work?

Music Marketing Interview with Indie Hip Hop Artist Sunny da Man

Music Marketing Interview: Sunny da Man is a student in my courses ( www.marketingbigbox.com ) and now a friend of mine. He has really earned my respect by taking massive action. One of the best examples of this, which you will hear in the interview, is when I suggested to him instead of taking just Flyers to a conference he should make up water bottles with his name and music on them. It would create an opportunity to give to people, and serve them, instead of just asking them to come listen to him. He took that idea and made a lot of great connections, got a lot of standout attention, and was even stopped by A&R's. TOP TEN LESSONS INDIE ARTIST SHOULD TAKE AWAY FROM MY INTERVIEW WITH “SUNNY DA MAN” 1. “Do” - Take action make adjustments along the way 2. Hit the streets. (Go online to get offline) Network with Everybody! Grassroots guerilla marketing still works. 3. There are no losses, just lessons. 4. Master live shows. Have an actual rehearsed routine. 5. Do showcases but remember at the showcases……….THE NETWORKING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE PERFORMANCE. 6. Don’t just hide out in a studio for years making music. (See #1 and #5). 7. Stop procrastinating. Time lost can never be regaind. 8. Have something prepared to hand out everywhere you go. Flyers are good but get more creative. NEVER EVER SHOW UP WITHOUT SOMETHING TO GIVE OUT! 9. If you are serious about music….attend festivals like A3C. 10. Be patient. Make sure the quality of your work is in line with your brand.

A challenge organically happened on my Instagram for some music artist to develop their business skills and mindset. I challenged them to study new areas of entrepreneurship for 100 days.

What can you learn from a fictional pimp? Well, I think a lot if we are talking about the movie Hustle and Flow. It's a classic and one of my favorites. It think the story intertwines so many great life and business lessons that I watch it at least once a year to stay motivated. I originally started this series on my YouTube Channel a couple years ago. I was too busy making How to videos to finish it. Now, inspired by a mastermind I'm hosting, I've decided to finish the series. Here is the first two episodes I originally recorded.

There are many very talented music artist that I interact with on a daily basis but no one knows the exists. Sure I can do some marketing tricks to help get them some temporary exposure. It's also true they don't really need a record label anymore. But the deeper truth is without a record label or talented team, they have to become full fledged entrepreneurs, which is no easy task. The biggest problem I see is not their music; it's their mindset. Today we talk about gratitude and abundance. You can actually reprogram your mind. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nocapbranding/message
