Music is still part of everyday life for millions of people across the world, but in today's up and coming society, artists have found different ways to gain viewers and fans. First off I congratulate artist on their great job of advertising and displaying their music in different ways. Artists have learned to adapt to the new technology and used their cleverness and brains in order to create a bigger fan base. As of now facebook and twitter are very big social networks and artists have utilized these websites to their advantage. They use these networks to talk about new songs that they are coming out with, and to advertise their next concert.
Lets not forget the great and wonderful YouTube. This website has allowed many small time rappers such as Wiz Khalifa to upload a song they created such as Black and Yellow, and allow the people on the World Wide Web to listen to and comment on the song. With the song black and Yellow Wiz Khalifa has made it big, and now has started to make albums such as Rolling Papers. Wiz Khalifa is making millions of dollars, and still living the same life style of "smoke weed, and f*** bitches" all thanks to YouTube.
Everyone is just trying to be the next Justin Bieber or Rebecca Black, come out with a single and hopefully gain fame, but for many this is just a dream, not reality. But this dream is more likely to become reality thanks to the many ways for artists to get their names out. Whether it be my advertising products and being on t.v. such as Pauly D, or making YouTube videos like baby faced Justin Bieber, or winning a singing contest on American Idol like Carrie Underwood; artist have found a way to get the fame and chance at a record deal.
I agree that this is a great way for even musicians who are famous to have their music heard as well as new and up and coming talents.
