    So, Elon Musk owns Twitter now. What does it mean for music, musicians and music marketing?

    The news of Elon Musk taking over Twitter has sparked my curiosity about its potential impact on the music community. As someone deeply involved with Twitter, I have my thoughts on what could be improved.

    What thoughts do you have that X (Twitter) could do for improvimg the music community?  Are they those for music fans or artists/bands?

    Are Artists getting less respectful ?

    can an Artists action turn off their fans ?

    and is fan/musician  interaction important.

     

    Considering the Lizzo news and what the lawsuit by her dance teams alleges, it seems that for an artist, to build a fanbase and fame, based on things the artist doesn't really believe or adhere to, isn't very respectful to their fans and will turn fans off.  

     

    And when an artist isn't respectful of their  performance support teams and the fanbase becomes aware, there is a price to pay when the "hypocrisy" gets exposed...as you can now see on X (Twitter).

    right , I doubt James Talyor is getting girls throwing their painties on stage , its only 40 year old country stars singing about having sex in a truck 

    It's not new.. Elvis, Tom Jones, the Beatles probably even Frank Sinatra 

    Concert violence.

    As you say @buckoff "press is press"

     

    Decades of throwing undies on stage.. and can't forget those musicians throwing their undies off stage..

     

    Then there was the musician diving off stage to be caught by the audience.. and audience members jumping on stage..

    all them stars got drama like that

     

    Totally!!!

     

    I often wonder, is this a publicity stunt? It's not just in the music industry.  Even with "causes", sports, politicians, actors. I rarely believe incidents exactly how they are reported. Although, some are probably real and spontaneous. Seems many just jump on the initial incident for pub or need an incident to get attention.

     

    Now, we've seen this rise in reporting of on stage incidents..

    Starting with the slap at the Oscars..

     

    Performers might need to go behind fenced stages to perform ... like in that old Blues  brothers movie.. just kidding :)

     

     

    .. then boom.. Teddy Swims picks up the phone thrown on stage and takes a selfie and tosses the phone back. Fans go nuts.

    Given the progression that we have lived to experience, I believe, in future periods of time, that AI will replace many industries and creative endeavors, especially with our acceptance and uses of the ever increasing power of technology's tools and communications to capture, supplement, create and manage. 

     

    We are now and have for many many years, been developing and training AI with every stroke of the keys and with every device that recognizes speech and sound or tracks locations. Government's and industry's knowledge and uses of AI are way ahead of the people's awareness and even our ability to comprehend.   

     

    Is it all for the good?  No.  Is it all for the bad? No.  It will be the generations ahead, if it is still possible at that point, to determine how far they let AI go. 

     

    Will humans still be able to wholly create their art, write their lyrics, perform their songs? Absolutely.     

     

    Will there still be a Music industry?  Probably, in some fashion ... as it has since the beginning, it will continue to morph and change.

    do people still use this?

    Hi Jontrell,

     

    Welcome to Songstuff.  The Introduction board is still used, for sure. 😀

     

    It's a great first place to say hi to the community and maybe tell us what your up to with your music or a little background,  goals maybe... what brings you here, that kind of stuff.

     

    If you have in questions about the boards, just ask and we'll get you some answers.

     

    See you around the boards.

    Playlist Curators the New Talent Scout?

    Do you really think a talent scout from Sony is spending all week going thru Spotify looking for talent ? I doubt it .

    Nope,  I think there are probably "influencers" that they identify, maybe even hire and are looking to them.  The amount of new songs is staggering, to say the least.  But I try to relate the number today with a bit of the past. Think of all the bands that played at college concerts, clubs, bars, picnics, garages, friends parties in all the towns and cities throughout the world where they never recorded at a studio or released their music because of the cost to do so.  

     

    A bit off my main topic, but this article I was reading today seems somewhat relevant to our over-all discussion here.  I think the industry knows there needs to be a change.

     

     

     

     

     

    Playlist Curators the New Talent Scout?

    in Musician's Lounge

    Posted

    In someways and often behind the scenes, history shows that traditional methods to get on commerical radio stations have been a type of pay-to-play. Especially when ownership of stations merged into large corporations.  Just saying... Not that I'm justifying or supporting pay-to-play.

     

    Playlists have taken some of the roles and market from radio.

    publishers , You better be good to get on they're lists

     

    Absolutely, Artist's songs have to be good to get on playlists that have ability to reach the target audiences,  especially for the major playlisters. So quality of sound and song is utmost. But many other pieces need to be in place.  For most indies, they have to prepare to build.

     

    Developing, executing, tracking,  analyzing and adjusting a plan to playlisting is really important, just like all strategic approaches for making money.
