      @@borattopaz4592 for context I’m a Nigerian and most of my listeners are from Nigeria. My last release real release was January of last year and Nigerians didn’t have Spotify till a couple of months ago.
      Other than that I’m still by no means doing big numbers but I have my career in order.
      I’ve been played on multiple national radio stations, been on national TV, been on a few blogs in and out of the country (smaller ones), charted on iTunes, I’ve claimed my knowledge panel on google, etc. One of the things AWAL says they consider is well thought out marketing plans and such. I feel like I showed that I won’t just be releasing music and hoping for them to do all the work and maybe that’s why I got in.
      Got in pretty quickly too, not up to 3 hours, but I’m still not 100% sure what convinced them.
      Maybe it was just my amazing music.

    I have a question about age, labels and distribution companies. If an artist has really good music, a strong fanbase, good streams and overall pretty much everything that a 20 something year old has but the only difference is hes 30+ like 30-32 years old. Does that matter to labels or companies that just do distribution? Like will a distribution company like awal, kobalt, orchard music, believe music, vidiya, etc not want to sign a distribution deal with him and pitch his songs to playlists, blogs etc. or do the distribution companies work the same as labels and really really care about age. Im an artist and im 27 and building a fanbase again as i lost some of my fanbase but I have 100k views total on my music. 45k views on my first official music video. Also currently have 3.4k subscribers on my artist page. Im just wondering if age plays a factor in distribution deals. I know the answer for major labels and even indie ones. If someone could answer this for me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

      @danielli_music 3 года назад +3

      I wouldn't say the unwisest but also wouldn't be wise depending on the situation. If you have great music and understand your vision as an artist and understand BUSINESS then u can negotiate for a more equal deal, etc. Relying on a record label though to make you big is usually the big mistake most artists make but if you have just as much leverage as the label and find that win win, the label and deal is on your side and team.
