A lot of the music business is propaganda that's involved with it. A lot of music businesses try to distort the reality of lots of electronic musicians work and creations, or recordings. A lot of music fans and the public are already dissatisfied and angry because they miss out on the positive effects within a lot of the music's features, and they only listen to negative statements from trappers or singers who have something highly negative to say over the recording. A lot of mainstream music recording companies like Capitol Records or Warner Music Group want to sign a music artist that's willing to go on tour all of the time to thousands of concerts, and all around the country and world.
A lot of critic viewers do not understand that it isn't about a tour all of the time that gets your music listened to. The music tour junkie is concerned with the monopolization of the music industry and recording business all together. The music tour junkie does not care about how many times they have to be ready and prepared to continue standing, and jumping around all the time on a stage in front of thousands and thousands of people. Those people could be loaded on drugs, angry, happy, sad, violent, cloudy, loud, or whatever. The question to ask some newbies is do they think that's what it takes to get they name onto the digital music list or on a billboard somewhere?
Now days, getting music distributed doesn't always consist of sitting in a large studio with a 48 Track mixing board connected to numerous effects processors, a bunch of two hundred dollar microphones, and a one thousand dollar audio interface. If that's your own distribution trick from your own music distribution label, then no sweat. Lots of music distribution labels already have the studio equipment connected to their computer portal for their artists that can master the tracks they upload, after the recording or finished sample. The more money you have, the better your master, with or without expensive studio gear.
A lot of hip hop, rap, house, trap, or whatever, if it's a black or ethnic musician artist, it can be hard putting yourself or show on display in a different part of the country that you're not from. Musicians have been known to getting bad flavor from a city's music crowd they traveled to when they found out they represented the same countries flag the musician represents, but only in a city other than theirs. Their moniker and motto might only seem to represent trap or gangster rap for that type of scenario. How is it that a ethnic or black rapper can't go anywhere to do a show in his own country without others mocking the musician just because of where their ancestors was possibly released from a slave ship in a specific geographical location of North America, or anywhere else outside of Africa. I'm not trying to take this conversation into an old North vs. South concept, so I'm going to stick to the scripts.
Trying to stay positive with any concert or club crowd in a city you're not originally from is the best decision a musician can make when having to sell somewhere new to you. That includes if however, your dealing with just the music sales scenario, without doing shows. You might be on a video podcast just speaking about your artistry and where your from to 3 or 4 mad and disgusted music critics on the show. Their idea of what town or city your from or what city you represent might not agree to them on the podcast interview, because of what city the hosts of the podcast air from. One musician's representation of where he or she's from might also be to talk smack about another artist from some other area. But other musicians can just stay smooth and not have anything negative to say about other music artists from other geographical locations.
I don't really think that a music artist who was from a bad location of the country should have a bad ride within the music industry just because of previous hardships, growing up as a child, in their late teens, young adulthood or whatever tough past. That isn't something that makes the music greater or lesser in value. So, if an artist isn't speaking negative about you, and you don't like them, it's best to ignore them instead of have something bad to say about them. And, the majority of musicians who don't have a lot of negativity to say about another music artist is where more money rolls in from the music business.

It's important to foster a supportive and respectful environment within the music industry, where artists are recognized for their talents and contributions rather than judged based on external factors or past experiences. Collaboration, positivity, and focusing on the music itself can often lead to more fruitful and fulfilling careers in the long run.
