The Business of Art.
I hate marketing. Well.. I don’t want to go that far I guess. I just hate marketing myself as a musician. The point of it is to get people to listen and buy my music correct? So what do I need to do? Dress up, take a cool picture of me looking serious, post it all over the place, and hope people think I’m cooler than I really am yeah? Make them think.. hey.. this guy seems cooler than me, I want to be cooler, let’s see what makes this guy cool right? It’s really conceited if you think about it. But in a way though.. being a professional artist is kind of conceited to begin with haha. ”Hey.. I think I make good enough music to where if I were to expose it to millions of people, they would flock to some place to buy my record.” It is what it is I guess..
So if you read this and just so happen to see me in my little promo pictures licking my lips trying to look sexy or something.. just know that in the back of my mind I’m saying. “This is fucking retarded.”
