Your biggest fan might only have 200 followers. Respect them.

DistroKid launching publishing admin is the wake-up call a lot of indie artists needed.

If you write your own songs and nobody's collecting your publishing, you're leaving money on the table every single month.

Distribution is step one. It's not the whole business.

[DJ Rell @djrell]

Artists, read your contracts.

Labels and AI companies are in court arguing over whether deals signed decades ago cover AI training.

Whoever controls your masters gets a say in what happens to your voice. Ownership matters more now than ever.

Unpopular opinion:

Billboard counting free streams more isn't the game being "cooked."

It's the charts finally admitting how people actually listen.

The problem was never the formula. It's artists chasing a chart position instead of building fans who'd pay.

Unpopular opinion:

Every artist doesn’t need a record deal.

Some artists need better distribution, better marketing, a publishing administrator and somebody who understands how to monetize their catalog.

Stop giving away ownership before understanding your options.

[DJ Rell @djrell]

An artist can have 10 million streams and still be broke.

Streams don’t tell the whole story.

Who owns the masters?
Who collects publishing?
What’s the royalty split?
Who’s controlling distribution?

Understand the business before celebrating the numbers.

[DJ Rell @djrell]

Everybody wants to be an independent artist until they realize being independent means running a business.

Music is the product. Marketing is the engine. Ownership is the asset.

Learn all three.
