Thank you so much for this video! I recently started releasing music for he first time and I really appreciate videos that are so honest like yours and that come from an independent artist like us. And you’re right, it’s a lot of hard work, there’s a lot to learn and to put into practice, but at the end it’s so rewarding to see your project grow. Wish you the best of success and please keep sharing videos like these!
You're spreading the wisdom and the kind words but you are loved too. Happy new year and may this year be amazing then ever. I will follow you on Spotify and wait for your new songs. Good luck and stay safe 🌟

Congrats! This video was so much more helpful and accessible than a lot of the big "music business" channels. I appreciate your personal, artist-based approach :)

Loved your video! I am also an artist now based in Portugal but I am brazilian and so I also have that problem where I don't know for sure where to put my location but I love that spotify has this "place you feel more connected to" thing. I literally never thought about putting a quote from the lyrics in the pitch but that's incredible because you can literally quote the point of the song in addition to explaining it! I am planning to release every month in 2021 (already released in January!), I just need to keep my creative work going. Subscribed because I want to see more on music marketing! Cheers :)
thank you so much for this! I needed this push! I don't have many people who I can get advic from in this industry and your video and channel is exactly what I needed!
The end of the video was great, great advice and really honest words about signed artists and labels
I got a lot of good knowledge and little gems from this video. Your editing kept it very entertaining. Good content

Amazing artist!!!!! So humble and super talented!!!
Awesome video. I'm just getting started in this world. My first pitch will be this week. Thanks for the encouragement. Much love and luck on your journey!
This was super helpful, I’ve been making music for over 3 years now but haven’t been ready to release the songs i recorded this year because I don’t know all these extra steps I needed to do. I only thought about promoting it on Tiktok, but getting onto playlists makes so much sense to grow and have people hear my music. Thank you so so much for all the tips and I am excited to take on this journey as an independent artist!

Very good video thank you! I like how you got together with someone through instagram in another country, I got my first record deal like that! I live in CA and they lived in London, we never met until after the record was out then I went to London to meet them. You just never know how things will roll for you!
Yes, Wendy, this video was SUPER helpful for me. A couple of those points I already knew about. The one I needed to see the most was about what exactly to write in the pitch. (I took a screenshot of yours as an example to look back on📱) I’ve also started planning dates on when to drop specific singles (every month). Also, just so you know, Wendy, you are doing an excellent job as well‼️I can see your growth and you should be VERY proud of yourself☺️I will forever be a fan of you and your music💓💓💓You & that bacon, tho🤣🤣🥓
