The Music Biz Buzz Podcast – Episode #05 – Good To Great
I’m back and comin’ at cha with a very insightful and helpful bit of info you can put into action immediately and for your sake I hope you do. If you commit this to your daily regimen there’s no way you can fail… and that’s the point right! Success in the industry.
Of course we all know it’s really not that simple. There’s a ton of work to be done in the trenches and that’s probably the number one reason that over 95% of today’s musicians don’t find the success they dream of. Thinking that this music thing is a breeze will absolutely kill you in this business.
Plus I’ve dropped in a very cool interview I had with Sick Tricks a very cool cat hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. So be sure to check what he has to say about finding success in the independent Hip Hop world and check out some of the music tracks he shared with us.
Anyway have a listen and feed on the suggestions I’ve got lined up for you this week, hit me up with your comments and let me know how you feel and what’s good in your career.
Talk soon,
Duss.
