Fall Damage could easily go into Among Us territory. The crack sound reminds me of the kill splat of a drive by kill before the crewmate falls to an Imposter. "Fall Damage"
As a fellow musician who also makes music sometimes we got to realize that we just don't make 'viral' music. We make music that feeds our soul but doesn't always feed into 'trends' and 'tiktok'. Sometimes it's okay to accept that we are regular musicians. Because lets be honest, if your main gig is not making music chances are your music is not going to be that viral thing because if it was, you and I wouldn't be making RUclips videos. Like there are so many musicians making more money from selling music promotion and advertising courses than they are from their actual music and that's because their music , probably like mine, is average or even if it's above average it's not 'ground breaking'. Like I make death metal music and the truth is while I think it's great and my fans think it's great it's not great enough that it puts me along with the top tier of artists in the genre. And i feel this is the case with most musicians who are on RUclips talking and making videos about music promotion and strategies and music marketing etc etc. Of course in your case you have nearly 100k monthly listeners on Spotify, how many people can say that? Not many I reckon. And while I'm not a fan of the style of music you create I can appreciate all your hardwork and I think your RUclips videos are absolutely killer! You really keep things real and props for that! \m/
God and Jesus Christ loves you all! Look to the commandments!!! Have you ever lied? If so that means, you are a lair and have sinned! We need Jesus to pay our fine, so we can go free from our crime(sin) and be able to go to heaven! To inherit eternal life you must repent from sin and trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior!! Good works don’t get you to heaven becuase that isn’t what we get convicted of! If you are in a court, and you robbed a bank you can’t say, “well, I fed the homeless... it wouldn’t work... God bless you all!! Have a wonderful, blessed day!!
I think you should have specific terms when hitting up people. For example, they need to keep the video up for a week. Pay half now and half when the 1 week is over. Also add some incentives so like, if they hit a certain amount of views, they get an addition X amount of money (this will ensure they upload the video at a time when their fans are most on tik tok, and will ensure they push it on their insta accounts too). It'll just help make sure they put a bit more into their efforts.
He doesn't even need to do that, all he has to do is properly word the message ie video must stay on your platform for x amount of time (indefinite is an option) then if they don't follow through he can contact the credit card company and file a chargeback for breach of contract (although this can only be done up to 180 days for most companies) if it's outside the 180 day time limit that most financial institutions allow his only option is small claims court.
This comment right here. 🙏 👏 Time of day that they post definitely affects the view count and they know that.. if they don't know that information I would be wary of doing business with them. Paying them half up front/half after a specified period with possibility for a bonus is the views exceed expectations is also a must. As you saw, some people don't put any effort into it when it's a quick couple bucks and no risk to them.
I think Moving Risky is more of a TikTok worthy song. Fall Damage wasn’t catchy enough, in my opinion. No hate on the song itself, just you need something that will catch people’s attention in just a few seconds.
Most successful entrepreneurs failed miserably before their succes started hitting. It takes time and it's all part of the plan. The thing is to just not give up. Keep your head up Patrick. I respect you for documenting the whole process.
I think it just shows that viral tik-tok's is the ones that people believe in when they do them. Like Rosie, who was really excited to do this tik-tok, as well as Austin. They liked the song and they believed in idea, and people feel it. That's why it was 2 best tik-toks on this song. And when someone do tik-tok just because he needs to (because he get paid) and not because he liked the song and everything, people feel it too.
I think the error made was the under capitalized use of the crack sound. The "crack" is like the punchline of the dance so videos should end with that leaving the viewer with an abrupt stop which could be hilarious. The video with the viewer reaction in the background was a good start but what should have happened was the influencer falls over at the crack sound and we dramatically zoom in on background girl. End of video. For the mashup content, you need to mashup on songs that emphasize your punchline. So something that tells a narrative that leads to fall damage. I have other ideas but this comment is long enough so let me know of you need more creative direction. Overall, continue to trust your instincts and don't be afraid to get specific in your vision.
I realized that this video talking about your strategies to promote your songs on TikTok, is itself a promoting strategy 😂 Keep going mate, I like your videos (and we can see how much effort and time you put on them)
Hi, I have to say I respect your hustle . You put A LOT of Time and effort into this. Spreadsheets , researching , networking . I really think you have a great idea. It’s just the type of thing that you have to keep trying until the ONE song that sticks on Tik tok all it takes is ONE song to blow up . Don’t give up!!
It is tough, just like getting rich. These little get rich quick schemes don't work. The reason why marketing campaigns work is because theyre worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, not 2000 dollars. The only free way to make it is to not be lazy. Be consistent, and let the numbers add up over time. There is no magic button
I trully believe that every song that goes viral on tik tok has vocals much much louder than how they're mixed in your album, it's well made music but its "character/personnality" factor doesn't really pass the crappy phone speaker test imo
I feel like this was a great idea, and was executed amazingly. I actually cant even comprehend how this flopped so hard. I think trial and error is the way to go with this project for sure. More videos like this on youtube and youll blow up for sure though! I have never seen any of your videos, but I also havent seen anything like this, and already I want to see more. Keep up the great work!
I think... Lyrics play such a huge part in tik tok music. In general, people would automatically be attracted to the song if they could relate to it. Or... A song where they could imagine something in their head - to create a plot. Also, dancing is not the only thing that is popular on tik tok.
I was SO lucky to have my song “I Made a TikTok” go viral how it did. Literally recorded the first line of the song, thought creators would like it, uploaded a skit to it and it took off racking up over 150k videos... pretty wild. So I finished the song IMMEDIATELY to capitalize on the momentum and now it has 1.5M on Spotify... No paid promotion AT ALL. 100% organic.
I love these types of videos. I'm a marketing student so they actually give a lot of insight on how to take advantage of social trends and also give me a lot of creativity when trying to think of other strategies for school projects. and I'm not technically slacking if your videos on topic lol. much love.
dang man, i admire your persistence - but also your awareness of when something isn't working. that might be one of the most important skills in this biz.
Unfortunately I agree, when people intentionally try to make viral videos on TikTok, RUclips, they don’t understand that this type of stuff happens unexpectedly, for a reason, but unexpectedly.
@@TheDiecastFanatic yeah it felt too fake and generic imo, like its trying so hard to go and be viral tik tok song, but lacks all the catchy qualities of an actual viral tik tok song. Idk about tik tok, but if it has #ad on it like youtube or instagram or whatever, then its prob going to do smaller numbers either way. If its not an actually good song or even a catchy/creative one to create content around, it wont catch on with other creators either. I think the mashup was "ok" job by the guy, but the songs were not up there. The 2 good tik toks were only good for what the creators/dancers made out of it, could literally swap out the song for something else as generic and it would still be the same result. They had good charisma and put effort into it I guess, but the song just wasnt nearly as impactful as it should be. I cycled through the album quickly, most of it all just sounds and feels like a filler track on some charting big name mediocre album. Not a bad thing in terms of quality I guess, but theres no stand out track really. I think Black Hole Sun gets the clicks since its first track on album and RUclips people will check it out, but thats only going to take it so far. IMO Out of This World stood out a bit more to me, if I heard this on Spotify daily playlist or some random playlist, I would probably like the song or add it to my own playlist. Probably not a song I would remember and keep playing to go back to, but a song that I wouldnt skip and would vibe to if it came on. Money would probably been better spent pushing that track to be featured in some bigger playlist(s). If they are no-copyright songs, keep pushing them on your own playlist and others as such, I think it'll still do good for background music, pretty chill vibe and nice melodies. Just wanted to type all this out as some "critical feedback", I dont mean no offense. It all makes for entertaining content on RUclips, which is probably more likely to go viral lol, love the channel and wish you best of luck, its gotta work some day.
I agree with the comments above. Also would like to point out that many people are doing the same thing with similar sounds , to really blow up you need either something really unique and fresh , or just be extremely lucky
With all due respect, brother, I believe that if you allocate that money to a contest doing the best dance and the best one wins, I believe that you would make any musical theme viral and recover the money invested
I’m a marketing student and your point about not everyone liking your music and knowing your target market is some of the best advice you could give to these artists getting into paid promo 🤓
@@paxtonacer what happened to actual trends Tik tok is like some retarded *bababoey you find on kickstarter but damm its bringing in hella dollars I feel like us humans havent reached our peak evolution but now we are literally devolving sad to say
I think what you're missing is the whole trend aspect. Look at what make trend, its something that people see and get inspired by it to make something there own. Trends give them creative ability to stretch trends to pretty new heights. Look at "Please Don't Go" by Mike Posner, It blew up on Tik Tok because of the creative trend that uses the audio. Trends should be something that everyone can do and expand on it might start with a few small creators and gets passed on to the general public and next thing you know everyone and their moms are doing that trend. I feel like the whole trendy dance trend is looking at Tik Tok past rather than looking at the future and where it is going. These dances are boring and no one can put there own spin on them. The audience that watches these dance videos tend to be much younger than the target audience for your album. All in all I think trying to crack the Tok Tok code is impossible and the only way to find success on Tok Tok is through organic growth.
Well tried Patrick! About the mashup idea: my thoughts are that mashups work for (relatively) uknown artists to make a mash for a song which is already known (to lean on it). The other way around may also work, but I think that'll be harder. To be honest, I think you should take advantage of being a big influencer here on RUclips. To work with these smaller influencers is only a big ups for them to work with you, I think you can do a lot of those project / collaborations with them for free because they are willing to work with you to get bigger themselves too!
your content is amazing, you actually do the leg work. I watch a lot of RUclips ranging from engineering and science to cooking and art and I can definitively say that your are one of the best creators on this platform. keep up the good work!
Some critical feed back....... Try to get at least 6 different alts (styles) of popular tik tokers to take your offer (2000) Also 6 (different alts) semi popular (not as popular as the above ^^^^) make an offer (1000) Another 6 tiktokers even less popular than the 2nd batch make an offer (500) Last 9 random tiktokers and offer 50-100
@@PatrickCc I heard even independent rappers in my city who have a decently small but medium budget still being able to pay for Tik Toks done by the top big influencers its either they actually know somebody or that the influencer is a big fan and really fw his song plus good tip to get the right money for the budget is to sign up for passport funding they will help you invest in what you need done simple as that they even gave my one buddy front row seats to a raptors game once lmao
I accidentally clicked on this video and wasn't interested by the title then you started to teach about marketing and had me hooked lol as usual great video!
Thanks for doing the market research some small artists are unable to do, shows us where we can invest in marketing campaigns, who to and where to look for those campaigns, etc.
I feel that youtubers/content creators are sometimes to obsessed with number, views, cashflow etc etc. I like this content don't get me wrong! But please don't forget that music is about having fun, creating and listening to it! That's what I tell myself though when I am crying and trying to sleep.
I seriously love and appreciate your channel. You really do open the hood on hiphop success for ambitious young artists trying to be successful. So this is my thank you post for all your contributions and experiments, especially for the ones on your own dime! You are the man!
The song was a steaming pile of shite lol no idea why he would have wasted his money on that. If you're going to try make a song viral at least have a half decent song.
@@yeahyeahyeahimstillabout.4809 And anything you find decent to be viral a lot of people will think it's dogshit, it is what it is. It's all about luck, and finding people that have similar music taste, etc.
Thank you for making this video. You can't take it personally that something didn't go viral. Sometimes songs take a long time before they blow up (which I know you know that already 🤙) but don't get too down on yourself 💚
Nice vid I love when you experiment like this, these are really informative. I feel like the song waited too long to get to it’s selling point (the crack sound). Before that, it sounded like 1000s of other song on TikTok right now. I’ve seen most songs on tiktok go viral because of a unique beat or lyrics that stand out and offer a wide variety of content types to be made (dances, skits, etc.) For this song, I feel like it plays it way too safe and just blends in with everything else. Maybe a more unique viral video idea for the song as opposed to just a dance would’ve incentivized people to use the sound. For example (this is just the marketing degree in me rambling haha) a vid idea could’ve been something like “when a thick girl in leggings walks by” and the dude’s neck snaps (on the crack sound) because of how fast he tries turning his next to catch a look at her. That’s just off the top of my head but I’m sure there are way better skit ideas than I just said lol, just wanted to give an example! Love your content a ton man keep it up!
I hadn't heard your music, but after this video, I'm obsessed with Fall Damage! It literally gets stuck in my head and I'm constantly humming it and doing a little tik tok dance to it. Lol, but I really want that Mashup!
I know this is going to sound weird but for part 3 you should try to pay video game creators (Preferably Fortnite montages creators) to make montages for you’re songs. Some songs really blow up off of them. I swear this can work
I think you should reach to the 1-2 big influencers and then reach more micro influencers, like pay for each video 10-20$ but get 100-200 videos with your sound, maybe this can work cuz people when wanna do the dance they mostly watch how many videos it has, because everyone wanna be famous. Maybe thats the problem cause when people see big influencer doin that dance and then see it has 4-5 videos, they undesrtand its paid promotion and dont wanna make a video with that sound. But if they see a lot of people doing with it, they will think its a new trend. And after all this you should do a trend mashup, doin just a regular mashup with no trendy songs will not help you to push your music.
yo patty ur trying to hard to make it blow up. if its quality enough to blow up it will, trying to rush it just makes it harder on you. have some patience broski and try to take the slower route. like i said if its meant to be it will be but you cannot force something that is not meant to be to be. anyway good job with the content keep it up broski
Honestly, I think that the reason it did not when viral is the song. This is a cool song but not a special "new" song... One thing that would be interesting is to know if all this had an impact on your Spotify plays?
Hey dude I’m sorry. You have really good songs! I just listened to some of ur songs on spotify and shared them to some of my friends! Hope I helped a bit and keep making music! You are awesome!! 💗
I'm also shocked it didn't take off, Nathan's video is so dope, the music is very catchy, sounds like stuff I'm already hearing on TikTok. But at least this youtube video surpassed the Million View mark, congratulations on putting out some dope a$$ content.
Bro. Love your videos. I work in marketing and also used to produce a lot of music. I can tell you from experience. Every marketing agency, every marketing campaign HAVE to make changes and adjust. Thats what marketing is. Adapting, analyzing and making adjustments and staying consistent
lol wait don't these tiktokers just copy non famous peoples dances. they don't create dances they copy them. it make more sense to ask pro dancers to choreo your song for you then pay tiktokers to do that dance.
Just so you know, I have 6 of the Albums songs on my playlist. I play them in the car and my friends add them to their playlist every time. The other day my friend was humming Black Hole Sun cause it was stuck in his head. I'm spreading the word!
I really like how you are making this journey fun. Every artist know that putting their music out in the world is a very sensitive thing and upsetting. Great video!!!

bruh. you are a legend. I learned so much from this. wow bro. I am literally changing my marketinh budget now to a new strategy like you did
I think moving too risky would’ve been the perfect choice…especially cause of the kick/bass part 🔥🔥
dang man, i admire your persistence - but also your awareness of when something isn't working. that might be one of the most important skills in this biz.
It’s probably... the song. The weird most unexpected ones usually hit. Can’t play it too safe with this stuff.
Yea and you can’t try to make a song viral on tiktok it just kinda happens randomly
@@AidanAce22 that’s wat I was thinking
@@AidanAce22 Yeah he's trying to force it.
Unfortunately I agree, when people intentionally try to make viral videos on TikTok, RUclips, they don’t understand that this type of stuff happens unexpectedly, for a reason, but unexpectedly.
@@trollguy8477 yea like for example StaySolidRocky’s song was the most popular song on TikTok at one point and he didn’t even know what TikTok was
maybe the track did not become popular, because the sound "crack" is not pleasant to listen to
Or just because the song is so boring. Compare the vibe to old town road like fr..
Yes compare my song to the longest running #1 song in history 🤣
@@PatrickCc seriously it’s so generic, just some feedback, I love what you do.
@@TheDiecastFanatic yeah it felt too fake and generic imo, like its trying so hard to go and be viral tik tok song, but lacks all the catchy qualities of an actual viral tik tok song. Idk about tik tok, but if it has #ad on it like youtube or instagram or whatever, then its prob going to do smaller numbers either way. If its not an actually good song or even a catchy/creative one to create content around, it wont catch on with other creators either. I think the mashup was "ok" job by the guy, but the songs were not up there. The 2 good tik toks were only good for what the creators/dancers made out of it, could literally swap out the song for something else as generic and it would still be the same result. They had good charisma and put effort into it I guess, but the song just wasnt nearly as impactful as it should be. I cycled through the album quickly, most of it all just sounds and feels like a filler track on some charting big name mediocre album. Not a bad thing in terms of quality I guess, but theres no stand out track really. I think Black Hole Sun gets the clicks since its first track on album and RUclips people will check it out, but thats only going to take it so far. IMO Out of This World stood out a bit more to me, if I heard this on Spotify daily playlist or some random playlist, I would probably like the song or add it to my own playlist. Probably not a song I would remember and keep playing to go back to, but a song that I wouldnt skip and would vibe to if it came on. Money would probably been better spent pushing that track to be featured in some bigger playlist(s). If they are no-copyright songs, keep pushing them on your own playlist and others as such, I think it'll still do good for background music, pretty chill vibe and nice melodies.
Just wanted to type all this out as some "critical feedback", I dont mean no offense. It all makes for entertaining content on RUclips, which is probably more likely to go viral lol, love the channel and wish you best of luck, its gotta work some day.
I agree with the comments above. Also would like to point out that many people are doing the same thing with similar sounds , to really blow up you need either something really unique and fresh , or just be extremely lucky
With all due respect, brother, I believe that if you allocate that money to a contest doing the best dance and the best one wins, I believe that you would make any musical theme viral and recover the money invested
It’s sad that upcoming artist don’t get recognized but the artist that already out gets the recognition. Tik tok literally a joke.
ikr all the shitty artist
I’m a marketing student and your point about not everyone liking your music and knowing your target market is some of the best advice you could give to these artists getting into paid promo 🤓
What year are you?
Can you help me promote my song Amazon?!? 😎
Their Dances Are Just Recycling Moves From Other Dances 🤣
Tik tok isa big joke
@@BabyRibs I mean yah but it’s popular for a reason. It’s just the younger generation below us that sets the trends my man.
@@paxtonacer my generation sucks ass
@@justinpaquette9218 Thank you
@@paxtonacer what happened to actual trends Tik tok is like some retarded *bababoey you find on kickstarter but damm its bringing in hella dollars I feel like us humans havent reached our peak evolution but now we are literally devolving sad to say
I think what you're missing is the whole trend aspect. Look at what make trend, its something that people see and get inspired by it to make something there own. Trends give them creative ability to stretch trends to pretty new heights. Look at "Please Don't Go" by Mike Posner, It blew up on Tik Tok because of the creative trend that uses the audio. Trends should be something that everyone can do and expand on it might start with a few small creators and gets passed on to the general public and next thing you know everyone and their moms are doing that trend.
I feel like the whole trendy dance trend is looking at Tik Tok past rather than looking at the future and where it is going. These dances are boring and no one can put there own spin on them. The audience that watches these dance videos tend to be much younger than the target audience for your album. All in all I think trying to crack the Tok Tok code is impossible and the only way to find success on Tok Tok is through organic growth.
Yup dances are old tiktok , even though dances are still a tiktok thing the skits are taking over
My mixtape is coming out July 28 I hope you like this song ruclips.net/video/A7t5pUoOnFg/видео.html
yoo I checked your album and I love it, great job dude!
Thank you!
Well tried Patrick! About the mashup idea: my thoughts are that mashups work for (relatively) uknown artists to make a mash for a song which is already known (to lean on it). The other way around may also work, but I think that'll be harder. To be honest, I think you should take advantage of being a big influencer here on RUclips. To work with these smaller influencers is only a big ups for them to work with you, I think you can do a lot of those project / collaborations with them for free because they are willing to work with you to get bigger themselves too!
if bella made a dance to this it would blow up overnight
Yeah
No, if she smirked, scrunched her nose, and and made her eyes look at her nose THEN it would blow up
Bella who??
@@Iamkayceebrown Bella Poarch
Bella Poarch who??
15th! Drink water
aye i always watch ur vids
I love ur compilations ❤ from India 🇮🇳
yo i watch u from iran intensify
MY BOI
@@Nashon9k ayeee
You need a song that stays in people's heads
I also see potential in the crack sound
the best way to get a viral song is to not try to make a viral song, but keep making songs and eventually one of them will blow up
I'm glad to be a part of this video! Awesome content.
your content is amazing, you actually do the leg work. I watch a lot of RUclips ranging from engineering and science to cooking and art and I can definitively say that your are one of the best creators on this platform. keep up the good work!
Okay but that neck sound snap with the dance goes crazy

Those hydration checks are super relevant!!! Thank you so much.
Some critical feed back.......
Try to get at least 6 different alts (styles) of popular tik tokers to take your offer (2000)
Also 6 (different alts) semi popular (not as popular as the above ^^^^) make an offer (1000)
Another 6 tiktokers even less popular than the 2nd batch make an offer (500)
Last 9 random tiktokers and offer 50-100
her face when the crack sound came up was funny, did she came up with this in one take? its amazing
That's sauce
sauce
no my video is sauce
Your comments are falling off
@@__yklim yep
Very saucey
Who also passed the hydrationcheck?🥶🥵✅✅
real ones
@@PatrickCc I really love ur videos🙏
@@PatrickCc I heard even independent rappers in my city who have a decently small but medium budget still being able to pay for Tik Toks done by the top big influencers its either they actually know somebody or that the influencer is a big fan and really fw his song plus good tip to get the right money for the budget is to sign up for passport funding they will help you invest in what you need done simple as that they even gave my one buddy front row seats to a raptors game once lmao
.??.?..
Meee
I've never heard your music on TikTok, but, I'll definitely be adding some to my playlist! keep up the great work :)
I accidentally clicked on this video and wasn't interested by the title then you started to teach about marketing and had me hooked lol as usual great video!
Thanks for doing the market research some small artists are unable to do, shows us where we can invest in marketing campaigns, who to and where to look for those campaigns, etc.
"Black Hole Sun" gonna be the song of the summer 🔥💯
“I see so much potential on the crack part “😂😂😂
the few seconds wasnt enough, lemme listen to the whole album rq
I feel that youtubers/content creators are sometimes to obsessed with number, views, cashflow etc etc.
I like this content don't get me wrong! But please don't forget that music is about having fun, creating and listening to it!
That's what I tell myself though when I am crying and trying to sleep.
I seriously love and appreciate your channel. You really do open the hood on hiphop success for ambitious young artists trying to be successful. So this is my thank you post for all your contributions and experiments, especially for the ones on your own dime! You are the man!
Man that song is so fire, and is perfect for a Tik tok trend, I don’t understand how it flopped???
Fax
The song was a steaming pile of shite lol no idea why he would have wasted his money on that. If you're going to try make a song viral at least have a half decent song.

@@yeahyeahyeahimstillabout.4809 And anything you find decent to be viral a lot of people will think it's dogshit, it is what it is. It's all about luck, and finding people that have similar music taste, etc.
Thank you for making this video. You can't take it personally that something didn't go viral. Sometimes songs take a long time before they blow up (which I know you know that already 🤙) but don't get too down on yourself 💚
I REALLY LOVE ''Why You Always Play'' I wish it was kinda faster, it would blow up tiktok. but yeah, I love them song. (My best on the Album)
i have a love/hate relationship with that crack sound
Nice vid I love when you experiment like this, these are really informative. I feel like the song waited too long to get to it’s selling point (the crack sound). Before that, it sounded like 1000s of other song on TikTok right now.
I’ve seen most songs on tiktok go viral because of a unique beat or lyrics that stand out and offer a wide variety of content types to be made (dances, skits, etc.) For this song, I feel like it plays it way too safe and just blends in with everything else. Maybe a more unique viral video idea for the song as opposed to just a dance would’ve incentivized people to use the sound. For example (this is just the marketing degree in me rambling haha) a vid idea could’ve been something like “when a thick girl in leggings walks by” and the dude’s neck snaps (on the crack sound) because of how fast he tries turning his next to catch a look at her. That’s just off the top of my head but I’m sure there are way better skit ideas than I just said lol, just wanted to give an example!
Love your content a ton man keep it up!
Their facial expressions when “dancing” really piss me off. Have a lovely day everyone.
Same
Their “dances” and their faces piss me off.
@@Dualis58 i friken agree my dude
This makes me feel better about my lack of success
Same here
il join the club homies, but its not about wether you making it the important thing is that u enjoy what u do.

I hadn't heard your music, but after this video, I'm obsessed with Fall Damage! It literally gets stuck in my head and I'm constantly humming it and doing a little tik tok dance to it. Lol, but I really want that Mashup!
I know this is going to sound weird but for part 3 you should try to pay video game creators (Preferably Fortnite montages creators) to make montages for you’re songs. Some songs really blow up off of them. I swear this can work
One day I'll be on Patrick's next album
mayahnau fr Yo
@mayahnau hate on me till I make it 😁
Much weirder names in hip hop right now
My song drops Friday link in bio of any socials go presave bouta be a BANGER 👀
@@MarzDaTroller he’s not hating bro the name is just a lil weird
@@allencantcap1977 I'll make my music speak louder than my name then 🗣
I think you should reach to the 1-2 big influencers and then reach more micro influencers, like pay for each video 10-20$ but get 100-200 videos with your sound, maybe this can work cuz people when wanna do the dance they mostly watch how many videos it has, because everyone wanna be famous. Maybe thats the problem cause when people see big influencer doin that dance and then see it has 4-5 videos, they undesrtand its paid promotion and dont wanna make a video with that sound.
But if they see a lot of people doing with it, they will think its a new trend.
And after all this you should do a trend mashup, doin just a regular mashup with no trendy songs will not help you to push your music.
yo patty ur trying to hard to make it blow up. if its quality enough to blow up it will, trying to rush it just makes it harder on you. have some patience broski and try to take the slower route. like i said if its meant to be it will be but you cannot force something that is not meant to be to be. anyway good job with the content keep it up broski
Hey Man! You are using my backgroud video in your video!! That's awesome! Thank you
" why u always play " is one of the under-rated songs on the album
YO TRUE
That's my favorite
You deserve the mill streams album keeps me hydrated 🚀🚀🚀
I think you'd have a much more effective turnout if you went for a thirst trap trend. It'd stick a lot better I think.
That’s exactly what I thought, especially for the intro to movin too risky
Honestly, I think that the reason it did not when viral is the song. This is a cool song but not a special "new" song... One thing that would be interesting is to know if all this had an impact on your Spotify plays?
Hey dude I’m sorry. You have really good songs! I just listened to some of ur songs on spotify and shared them to some of my friends! Hope I helped a bit and keep making music! You are awesome!! 💗
I feel like the delivery on fall damage is too chill to match the dance
I swear man, seems like you can't force it on Tik Tok without some DEEP pockets.
Me after watching the video, “don’t worry Patrick, I’ll stream the album” 😪
That’s real love
@@PatrickCc that’s the only love I know 💯
why is your album low key fire
I'm also shocked it didn't take off, Nathan's video is so dope, the music is very catchy, sounds like stuff I'm already hearing on TikTok. But at least this youtube video surpassed the Million View mark, congratulations on putting out some dope a$$ content.
Ahhhhh particle cc the goat back with another banger you love to see it
CC on this video is nutty, also good ass info! next up... "Paying tiktok stars $10,000 to blow up my song (please work)"
You should’ve used “Movin’ Too Risky” the bass bounces in the beginning would of been really catchy for tiktokers!!!
Bro. Love your videos. I work in marketing and also used to produce a lot of music. I can tell you from experience. Every marketing agency, every marketing campaign HAVE to make changes and adjust. Thats what marketing is. Adapting, analyzing and making adjustments and staying consistent
lol wait don't these tiktokers just copy non famous peoples dances. they don't create dances they copy them.
it make more sense to ask pro dancers to choreo your song for you then pay tiktokers to do that dance.
im pretty happy u can not just buy this and its still kinda organic if someone goes viral
Just so you know, I have 6 of the Albums songs on my playlist. I play them in the car and my friends add them to their playlist every time. The other day my friend was humming Black Hole Sun cause it was stuck in his head. I'm spreading the word!
I love u
@@PatrickCc ❤️
She actually did a pretty good job!!
I really like how you are making this journey fun. Every artist know that putting their music out in the world is a very sensitive thing and upsetting. Great video!!!
Im going to listen! At least the algorithm is working for you on YT. This came up on my feed
