TOP TEN Investments for an Indie Artist

1. BUDGET - Delegate a set amount of money (budget) to your career whether you have JOB or NOT save on Making Your career GREAT.

2. STOP WASTING MONEY - Do you need the NEW PAIR of TENNIS SHOES (Jordans), New Outfits, Marijuana, Beer, Club Parties & Chicken... lol. BUT NO 4 REAL - STOP WASTING MONEY THINGS w/ a Non-Return Value

3. INVEST WISELY - Spend money IN YOURSELF... get a Professional Bio, Press Kit, Pictures, Website, & Definitely Business Cards. Start Small & End up BIG!

4. COLLABORATE - Maybe your NOT a Good performing ARTIST but you can WRITE a HOT SONG. THEN seek to write for a PERFORMING ARTIST. Same things may apply here w/ the PERFORMING ARTIST; maybe your NOT GOOD at WRITING a HOT RECORD them seek to collaborate w/ a HOT WRITER before collaborating w/ another ARTIST. - FYI: PLEASE GET COMPENSATED (PAID) for YOUR WORK.

5. PHOTOGRAPHY - They say a picture is worth a THOUSAND WORDS & IMAGE is EVERYTHING so why waste your money on a non-professional look, image, & or photographer. ALWAYS, & ALWAYS remember that LIGHTING has A LOT to do with photography along w/ photoshop editing to evoke a captivating image. BE WISE & INVEST in a PROFESSIONAL on this ONE. NO EXCUSES!

 

6. INTERVIEWS - If you have done more SHOWS than you have Interviews then maybe YOU need to seek a PRESS RELEASE, PRESS KIT, & I definitely would recommend seeking a PUBLICIST. Enough is said on that one.

7. COMMUNICATE - Twitter & Facebook along w/ LinkedIN is the new wave of Interacting Social Media & Networking with people. If you want to be professional & meet more professional people than pay attention to WHAT YOU SAY & HOW YOU SAY IT. REMEMBER they say Think before YOU SPEAK; so THINK befoe YOU TWEET in 2011.

8. WEBSITE - You do want to make Money correct? WELL SELL YOUR MUSIC, Pictures, Image, Brand, TOUR, MERCHANDISE on your SITE. MAKE MONEY from YOU... Facebook nor Twitter doesn't provide these opportunities to buy your music DIRECTLY, & MYSPACE is Obsolete aka DEAD! Social Media are Tools, use them 2 build your networks & in return build your networth.

9. TECHNICAL - This may be a SEO (Search Engine Optimization), SMO, Marketer, etc. along with with a digital designer of say websites, & flyers. Technicians comes in handy to increase Your availability & visibility on the net such as search Engines. (Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.)

10. CONSISTENCY - Well they say "CONSISTENCY is KEY," but to KNOW the "RIGHT DOOR" to use the KEY in which to turn THE LOCK is the KEY to staying Consistent. - See that's the KEY... which way 2 turn now? Well maybe try turning the KEY to hitting the LINK below to contact me. CHOICE is YOURS NEO? - Matrix

- THE COOL GREYS -

- THE COOL GREYS -

Why do people lack getting a Mentor/Teacher/Coach/Rabbi to Advise them on WHAT to DO & WHAT NOT to DO??

Today its all about LOOKING GOOD - PHYSICALLY!! This is COOL to most people like The Cool Grey Jordan's... I look good, I got $$$, a few People like it & most are content with Just looking good aka Cool.

- Most are not concerned about Brand - Image - of their Musical Product from Recording, Mixing, Mastering, Marketing & this is the core of the Business of creating Music as a Business... but everyone Looking Cool in their Cool Greys want to get paid for what I guess... Looking Cool!?!?

Even promotional companies today choose not to be concerned with their Image & what their business represents, because most of these people just want to Look & Act Cool online & offline. - But hey if THEY LOOK GOOD & COOL... I guess thats ALL that MATTERS.

In 2011 Keeping it Cool in the Grey Matter of Your Brain is just Cool

- Keep CHILLING

Listen to CLEVELANDs Anthem 'UP THE WAY - DOWN THE WAY' by @Darren Anthony - HAPPY NEW YEAR #CLEVELAND

Are YOU a POWER BROKER?

POWER BROKERS

Think to yourself on how you access POWER. Usually its through your Car/Phone charger or the outlet you use to plug up a Light. You don't think of how you USE POWER to power up things or use the electrical power to power up appliances, computers, tvs, etc., but YOU just do and pay the electric bill!

Well, Its a simple anology to use when we as humans use the consumption of Power, but not as simple as how we conduct & harness Power. As you know, we just can't plug ourselves into an electrical socket & receive a burst of energy; although you actually could, but in reality you couldn't take it, so you would fry to death. In which I highly recommend that you Do Not! 

So now apparently we are living in the 31st. Century by Jay-Z accords, as he explains on the remix of KanYe West's new single "POWER." Think of his quote as he recites "DO YOU HAVE THE POWER TO GET OUT FROM UP UNDER YOU?" Ahhh, I say this line was defenitly overlooked to most who don't OVERstand Power aka Energy. Energy illuminates YOU and gives YOU the POWER to GLOW!!! What really matters though is the sockets you plug yourself into? It could be a book, an iPad, or a blog, but often times more it is poeple, and often times those people around you may be short-circuited with ...NO POWER.

In order to be a POWER BROKER & harness the 31st. Century of today's economic commerce takes you plugging yourself into people that are plugged into a power grid. Without the power of information, resources, tools, technology, social structure, and a grid or power brokers; this will apparently leave you disconnected without power to advance and remain in the 21st. Century. lol  The technical power of INFROMATION is doubling at an expotential rate. Technical Energy of going GREEN is where POWER BROKERS are receiving the GREEN!!!

Will you be part of the dim bulbs, or will you plug yourself in with the POWER BROKERS of today, and illuminate that dark hollow tunnel of a mind of yours? Switch the ON button to see the light inside you, and how you can make a living working with other POWER BROKERS to seal deals? As they always say, "The Power is in The Numbers!"

Harness the power of POWER BROKERS that work with NO Boundries; that creates its own Energetic mind of Creative Control. Control the POWER in you and Un-plug from the matrix and plug into a Power Greater than Yourself ...which is a TEAM of ENERGTIC PEOPLE aka POWER BROKERS.

Want more information on how to become a Business 2 Business "Power Broker" and make an income of $2,000 - $5,000 a month working with the small businesses that run the United states economy???

EGO: The NEED TO BE "Socially" ACCEPTED

EGO: The NEED TO BE "Socially" ACCEPTED.

In today's Singular & Social Economical Society we now have a bunch of people seeking to make money from a Musical Craft; whether its Rapping, Singing, Producing, DJing, etc...

Its been a cosmic explosion of people WANTING Reviews, Interviews, Help, Assistance, and the ACCEPTANCE of doing something in the music business... which now is in an Over-Saturated State in 2011. People now want to be Critically Acclaimed as doing something... but their craft IN HUMAN BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS lacks Etiquette and Substance.

NOW IN TODAY'S SOCIAL CLIMATE people WANT YOU TO LISTEN TO THEIR MUSIC, ReTWEET THEIR MUSIC, HELP THEM FOR FREE. NOW SINCE YOUR FACEBOOK FRIENDS & TWITTER FOLLOWERS these people NOW expect that you listen TO THEM, PROVIDE FEEDBACK, & even HELP THEM ETC....

NOW WHEN YOU EXPLAIN TO PEOPLE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO DO THESE THINGS BECAUSE IN ALL actuality you really don't know them... THEY GET OFFENDED and next they try to belittle you with their Emotional Response like YOU CAN'T SHOW NO LOVE etc...

NOW WHEN YOU SAY NO and or PAY ME 4 MY TIME - they befriend & or unfollow you. FACT: it doesn't bother a Business Man/Woman when you do that, it just shows that YOU the person BEHIND YOUR CRAFT of making music lack BUSINESS SENSE & ETIQUETTE

- #HINT THIS show of BEING MAD & DISGRUNTLED because NO ONE WILL PAY YOU ATTENTION and or LISTEN TO YOUR MUSIC w/o compensation is NOT & WILL NEVER get YOU anywhere in the Music & Business. FACT that one person that DID NOT STROKE YOUR EGO could have helped you advance a couple steps further but............... NOPE YOU GOT EMOTIONAL & hit the De-FRIEND & Unfollow Button.

ONE WORD: #INTERESTING

Who is The Un-Employee aka America's #1 Patron?

Darren Anthony is prepared to make his Pro and Brave Music debut with the release of "Same Sh!T, Different Day". Forever the 'Un-Employee' as he titles himself; his music is renowned by just almost every ear that hears his craft, Darren has always been relentless to work once provided with an opportunity. With the release of "The Restaurant" cooked up by DJ Mick Boogie along with the spices of Darren's charisma he serves an a la carte dish of "content music." After the main coarse, he whips up that tasty dessert prepared especially for the ladies, entitled 'Do This Again' which is the icing on the cake of a soft mellow moment where he polity asks a beautiful lady that he just met at the diner, "Can We Do This Again?"

Thank You for Eating at Pro & Brave.

Stop Back Again & Have a Nice Day!
"America's #1 Patron"
