I'm 17 years old and I'm day dreaming so badly to be a singer but there's no push from my family and I had no idea about HOW to start my journey but I tried many ways like Online music auditions for foreign music companies because everything is expensive in my country ( I finally realised it's a stupid and time wasting thing 😧 ) So I decided to give up on my music dream but I started to dream again about music!! So now I want to make my own music but every time when I'm trying to write a song or a melody it's already exist..😢😢 Please I don't know what to do.. I'm so done with this..😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

@peacefultsunami Год назад

honestly just put yourself out there. write songs and record or your own, look for studios or music places in your area and try to find some like-minded people, record on your phone, just go for it. The first step is always the largest

Bro never give up I have every equipment you need for music still I’m struggling so your not alone

@chrissytiya3025 Месяц назад

@@PrashantSapkota-sp3bn You know what I never gave up on my dream I commented on this video 1 year ago and now I've achieved what I've always wanted!! I've stepped into my music journey and everything happened so fast!! Maybe it was my luck or my chance. So you said that you have all the equipments but still struggling right? All you have to do is just focus on your thing just give 100% attention to your work and keep learning from every single mistake you make. Just grab a instrument whatever you have and play something random or something that's been stuck in your head and write some lyrics, it doesn't have to be related to you or your life. Just write about something or someone you think are special for you. And you have to be creative on your craft to give it a possible meaning. Then hand your work to a music Producer for magical touches and make your own song come alive. All I have to say is *just wait for your time to shine and never think that you're a failure. You can make thousand mistakes but only a one correction could be life changing* Good luck!

This is so cool and interesting. How did you know that, for example with the cover example, everything that DistroKid handles will make sure you're legally on the up and up? Did you do any additional research on your own? (and if so, where? I can't even imagine where you'd go to look up... the laws I guess 😆) or did you just trust that they handled everything?

"A record label, or record company, is a brand or trademark of music recordings and music videos, or the company that owns it." - Wiki. So basically some labels are like fueled by ramen (a lot of rock bands are signed to them) or Def Jam Recordings

@KylaGrace 11 месяцев назад

For anyone who might have an answer, if I want to upload a project of songs that are actually century-old poems (so they are public domain by now), would that count as original? I arranged the instrumentation and melody and everything myself but the lyrics are from the poem, so it's not a cover. How would one categorize that?

And i was wondering, since I'm a student trying to make some money, if you've received any sort of payment from youtube? Since your channel is doing quite alright and is following the creator guidelines? I know this might be a personal thing to ask, but i'd really appreciate a yes or a no... Thank you anyways for the helpful videos!
