Gratitude

My day-to-day is convincing my favorite emerging artists to let me put their music onchain and make them their first ETH.

Couldn't ask for a better way to bring the next billion people onchain.

Don't overthink it.

Worst case - no one sees it and no one cares.

Best case - you make some ETH and some friends along the way.

As a musician myself, I've had a couple of friends suggest this to me, but I'm still struggling to get my head around the hows and the whys of this - do you have any resources you could point me to that could help me out?

Yeah that's a good way to frame it! I'd be interested in hearing more tbh, it's a space I'm super curious about. 

Also tbh this hurdle of like the initial fear of being associated with "crypto" is something we're gonna have to surpass at some point and hopefully sooner rather than later

Yeah they're terrified and almost always emphasize they don't want to be labelled as a "crypto artist".

My response is you don't need to be into crypto to put songs onchain.

We handle the upload and marketing all you need to do is make great music and we earn you ETH.

Tons of thoughts about the drops you mentioned.

What's the reaction usually? Are artists kind of scared of entering the space or not really?

Asking because you see some more known artists getting crap for putting music onchain 😓 , thinking about Earl and Alchemist dropping Voir Dire on Gala for example

Coop we got to meet briefly in denv at the coffee shop hh. Amazing show at ice box that night, super fun. 

Out of curiosity here if an artist already has a label or representation do their contracts prevent them from doing this? Is that why you have to focus on emerging?
