I have a subscription with this website “Radioairplay”, and I have been with them for some time now, and my results weren’t that great.
I have promoted many songs on that platform, but I wasn’t getting good numbers.
At the tail end of 2023, I decided to begin to start at the beginning; “i guess you can say a reset, and I begin to promote my debut album release “Disconnected...”.
But before I did, I became more familiar with the services of the website, and I began to change and adjust some prior preferences on some songs that I was already promoting. No change in my results, so early summer 2024, I began to promote and spotlight “Disconnected...”.
Five songs were selected:
- Favorite Sport
- One Day…
- Behind My Back
- Old Hip-Hop
- Dispensary
For any years I would only average 35-50 plays a day. When I put these five into rotation and removing the other tracks already in rotation; with only these five tracks, I began to achieve 184-250 plays a day.
Right when I was about to cancel my subscription, those five songs brought, and are still bringing me an average of close to 300 plays a day.
This gave me the confidence and cleared any doubts about starting at the beginning, and promote “Disconnected...”.
I began establishing my artist website, to better govern my music, and piggy backing on the radio air play upswing, I began my 1st website campaign “Celebrate Disconnected...”, by offering discounts, literature on the music and myself, and free download opportunities; which began in September and will continue until New Years 2025.
I am at the point where I’m expanding my promotion; it’s time to make some noise, and I am expanding my horizons by exploring some playlist placement options.
I am testing the waters with a website called “YouGrow”. I have seen many advertisements, and read good reviews; so lets see where this goes.
I submitted my song “Up All Nite!” from my “Tha Playlist Vol1: Back At It Again” album release.
This song is an uptempo dance/house track fused with a Hip-Hop core, and the subject I about a parent chastising their child for staying out late.
This concludes with: “COMING SOON!”:
- Membership has it’s perks.
- So It Begins…
- Tha Faces of F.I.S.T.
Look for these blogs; Coming soon...
