From trying to "Promote" my music online, I came up with the harsh conclusion that most of the time I'm actually spamming it instead of marketing it in a creative way. What separates successful artists with Good Loyal Fan bases is their ability to communicate, and keep them posted on all their now art. A Struggling artist Can't distinguish the two, so instead of sounding educated when they interact with fans, they forget to make the fans seem like people, and speak to them in a robotic manner, such as "Check out my music, this is the greatest thing you've ever heard". In reality, it's just like the average youtube rapper, and they don't distinguish themselves from the rest of the world. But That's just my opinion. What do you guys think the difference is, and do you have a good method of actually marketing?
