🎵 How To Grow Your MusicBe Heard Globally 🎧

Good music deserves to be heard. Don't let the algorithm mute your talent. Here is the strategy to build a fanbase from your bedroom to the stadium.

Why Artists Don't Break Through 🎸

Talent isn't enough. Marketing is the amplifier.

Posting Only Originals

It's harsh, but without a fanbase, originals get 0 views. Use covers as the bait.

ignoring Shorts

Musicians blow up on Shorts/TikTok daily. Post the "hook" of your song as a short 15-second clip.

Copyright Strikes

Using instrumental tracks you don't own can get your video taken down. Use royalty-free backing tracks or play it yourself.

No personal connection

Don't just be a voice. Talk to your audience, do Q&As, and show your personality.

The Artist's Roadmap 🎹

1. Cover Songs are the Gateway

Nobody searches for your original song (yet). They search for hits. Post high-quality covers of trending songs to get discovered, then convert them to your originals.

2. Consistent Visuals

A static image with audio isn't enough. Use lyric videos, visualizers, or performance videos. You need movement to hold retention on a video platform.

3. Collaborate with Other Artists

Features work. Collaborating with a similar-sized artist doubles your reach instantly. Do a mashup or a duet.

4. Optimize Metadata

Title your covers: "Song Name - Original Artist (Your Name Cover)". This ensures you rank when people search for the original song.

5. Audio Quality is Non-Negotiable

You are a music channel. If your audio clips or sounds bad, you lose credibility instantly. Invest in a decent interface and microphone.

Music Channel Growth FAQ

Can I monetize cover songs?👇🏻

Yes, but revenue is usually shared with the original songwriter via Content ID. You keep a portion, they keep a portion.

How often should I release music?👇🏻

A full song takes time. Aim for 1-2 videos a month, but use Shorts to fill the gaps weekly.

Do I need a music video for every song?👇🏻

No. A simple "visualizer" or lyric video is fine for most tracks. Save the budget for your lead single.

How do I get on playlists?👇🏻

YouTube Music playlists are algorithmic. High retention and likes on your video trigger the algorithm to suggest it.
