► Why YouTube dictates how often you should release content
► How you make connections so the algorithm recommends you

► Authentic Story-Driven Content is the key to social media promotion

Just want to say thank you Jesse, your work is of incredible value and personally helping me find new direction in my campaign to take over the world with my music. Thanks again and best of luck to you sir.
Unfortunately, being myself is the whole problem.
What is you have three versions of the same song. Do you release one version every two months, or go hard and release all three versions? Also, what if you have a music video for that song… should you hold off releasing it, or release it at the same time and share it with Spotify editorial recommendation?
Jesse! I'm trying my best to follow this strategy to the letter of the law. My question is do we submit our song to the editorial playlist before we release it? Can it be submitted after it's released?
Super informative bro! I would be interested in your opinion as whether or not these same concepts apply to artists over 40?
thanks for this!🙏
Hi Jesse, just got a question – what do you mean by a "single screen video" which you say you should release in the first week of a release cycle?
Many thanks for the info. Wishing you a Happy New Year!

Great Content Brotha! 👍
normally dont trust all this types of videos but you got jai paul on screen so you have my attention
Thank you for this information. I'm just trying that way.
Amazing content, I really appreciate it! Did I understand this part correctly: For every new single I release, I should first release the audio with a video that has a single still image (e.g. a photo), secondly release a lyric video of the same song, and third release the music video???
Thanks for everything
this guy talks like he constantly has a loogie in his throat
What kind of content can I be sharing to build my fanbase a few months before I have music to release?
Been playing music 20 years.. you sir.. get a like and follow. Best data I've heard … my entire career. I'm gonna try this out. God knows I've tried everything else.
Jesse, what exactly is a Cheat Code
This video is pure gold! We will definitely be applying what we learned here.
Do you recommend owning all your music (the beat) and putting it out on Apple Music and Spotify etc.. or putting out more music on SoundCloud(a free streaming service) until you build an audience?
Blow nose
Thabk you so much the info, load of these stuff I knew for a while, and I wanted to ask you something i am struggling with, I uploaded my first single on the 9th of october into preorder on october 20th to get released in Nov 15th i am trying so hard to people just click the preoder hyperfollow that's so easy and what really people tells me is that they dont get how to register or how to do it LOL Am I dumb haha? I can engage qithveach friend, magazine stuff and I do it I really put a lot of faith in this first song but it seems that nobody cares or nobody knows bc artists are not using these type of tools of presave, i have few public from chile, israel and a bit from everywhere , still any suggestions?i am creating contents about how I did, the song, memes videos.
This is LOADED with gold.
So to the point !!!!!!! You’re da man !
Incredible advice as always. Thank you so much Jesse!
Thanks!
great video!!!!

Hey man thank you for spreading some helpful knowledge. Most of the videos I have watched with similar titles as this one I walked away not learning much of anything helpful. But you really gave me some key elements to keep in mind. Hell I took a page and a half of notes! Lol.. so thank you once again. I liked, subscribed and commented sooo… Lol
As a composer with a degree in Marketing and a bachelor's in the music business, I have to say: He is legit!
