orange22 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 You’re a new(ish) artist, you’re flopping, and it’s bad for you. Why? How would you fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cockatoo Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Fight to keep releasing music regardless of the floppage. Get mixtapes, EPs released and on streaming so that even if the GP aren't checking for my singles, I can still build a small fanbase. Also try and book any opportunity to perform and get my name out there. I truly believe one of the biggest mistakes someone can make after a flop single is radio silence and then waiting months to a year to release a follow up. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotunda Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 - Keep releasing songs with minimal promo/$$ and hope one takes off on TikTok - Have my label organize some DJ songs I can sing on, or some collabs I can jump on with another label mate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitsouko Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 I’d have a coke fueled Twitter meltdown and pivot to pander to boomer republicans and show-tune gays both of whom who are much less fickle and disloyal than 20-something pop gays 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, however, I feel like that’s hard to do with a major label if they’re blocking you from releasing. But I agree overall that the disappearing for months on end after hurts more.

byzantium Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 To flop you need to perform well prior so presumably you have a name and some brand already out there. I would work on solidifying my brand and make sure to keep releasing music. I really respect what Ariana did with Focus and Dangerous Woman. I think other artists should give themselves the space to course correct. I wish Taylor had done that with ME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alldeezy Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I wouldn't care. I'd just enjoy making music for the small amount of fans I have. All the artist I stan Are Flops in fact yes im the only stan for those artist even on this forum and those boys are so thankful everyday they enjoy making music sometimes maybe a song will suddenly become a hit. But honestly being a musican is not about being top of the charts it's about the Arts and I guess atrl find it hard to understand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
