Introducing Consci Music
Six months ago, the world that we live in, changed. For the first time in our lifetime, the chaotic rhythm of everyday life was interrupted and put to a rather dramatic stop. Millions around the world became confined to their homes, and while social isolation can be detrimental, for music, it doesn’t have to be. As the world began to realize itself, Consci Music was born.

Scamming Spotify
Though one of the largest streaming services in the world, Spotify, has millions of listeners across the globe, the company has come under fire in recent years. Typically speaking, Spotify utilized a money-pool approach to paying artists. Ultimately, artists who generated the most plays would receive the largest payouts from Spotify.

Best Musical Talents Ever Predicted To Rise As Stars Over The Next 10 Years
Today’s music industry is like nothing we have seen or had available to us before. With a plethora of excellent music sites dedicated to giving musical talent the chance to upload their music is rising. Talent scouts can no longer turn down potential stars because they personally do not see potential. This is because if someone’s music is popular across a certain genre, it is undeniable thanks to likes, comments, downloads, and music sharing.

Will Podcasting Replace Traditional Radio?
Only a handful of the “elite podcasters” actually get money for their unique content. Even though sponsors often times pay on a “cost per listener” in order to advertise on those podcasts, the primary emphasis is on how big their audience is. But whose fault is it that this is the dynamic being looked at?

BabyGangstahh - " For Nothing "
-Get to Know BabyGangstahh My name is BabyGangstahh, I am 22 years old. I was born on the East Coast in Bridgeport, Connecticut, but lived all my life on the West Coast in San Jose California. East Coast Born – West Coast Raised! I make music full-time and dwell in the “Marketing” field. I’m always in the studio and pretty savvy on the computers.I started doing music at a young age, 11-12 years old and I was always tryna find a way to make money and “stunt” like the rest of my favorite artists. I guess I was always attracted to the finer things in life and I saw it on them, so I wanted in- ASAP. I also knew I had mad talent and damn near 100% of people that heard my music liked what they heard. I decided I needed to get paid for this shit… just like everyone else I saw and looked up to, no cap.

The Rise Of Female Producers
The Endgame has always been sex or some form of sexual favours at the end of production from male producers in the music industry as if being a female artist isn’t challenging enough. Though not all producers are the same the social trend has still seemed to stay constant with a large number of male producers, especially with those that work with young and upcoming female artists.

The Independent Struggle
The new music business structure isn’t as simple as every artist makes it seem with the shift of more artists trying to strive for independence and neglect record companies or record deals; that simply isn’t the case when it comes to the African continent and its inhabitants. We would like picking apart the inequality and the marginal gap between the privileged and those less fortunate but that would take extensive research and funds to travel across Africa which we currently do not have the funds for and if we had to actively pursue the bottom line on how each African country conducts its music business we wouldn’t be able to get accurate information due to the lack of information being shared online.

CORONA-VIRUS WILL HAVE IMPACTS ON THE MUSIC INDUSTRY.
A few years ago I gave up on music as a underground artists as I was finding it hard to make a living as a artist while paying bills and living costs. In addition to this the expectations people can have of you as a aspiring artist can be a little overloaded. I do not know if this is genuine or another method of massaging the ego before you apply the extortion. However, I had enough and while I matured I transfered my skills to Media & communications, a degree I studied while at University and graduated with a 2:2
