THE GLO UP

I find it quite fascinating how an artist can easily “GLO UP” from just making plenty of music videos; networking them on YOUTUBE…. I believe it is a dependable source to sell yourself of the internet because they are using the internet in a positive way rather than a negative way. For example, posting fights worldwide like the rest of society is doing. These artist are selling themselves on the internet to make a living in life. By starting off “INDEPENDENT” then eventually getting signed by a record label to start their music career if they are GOOD ENOUGH. Unfortunately, it seems hard but it’s not because if you are GOOD ENOUGH you will be seen getting plenty of recognition worldwide from being the talk on the street of how good of an artist you are. Personally, I believe these actions so called ARTISTS ON THE RISE are pursuing is not destroying the radio, CD's buying, and the music industry because once they “GLO UP” their music is going to be all over the radio. Then, once they start making albums then they will release Cd’s in stores. This can be useful to a record company because while their artist “GLO UP” they will be making a lot of money with their signed artist too. The more recognition the artist has and more record albums they dropped that go platinum; more money will be coming in which means both the artist and the record company are going to be eating. Unless the artist gets a better record deal or sometimes they make so much money they start their own record company and begin signing artists of their own. If I had a friend who wanted advice in how to start his career in music. I would literally tell him to sell his self on the internet first so he can easily get recognition.

  1. The Internet has been a legitimate way of becoming famous, but I almost feel like there are still some artists that don't really impress me in the music industry. I think there are so many people on the Internet that have great potential but don't quite reach that milestone.

  4. I agree that starting from youtube and such things makes you more popular and you know that people generally are fans and like your music. I Also agree with Rob, a lot of artist on youtube have a lot of potential but just dont get seen by the right people.
