A Songwriter’s Job Description
We usually focus on Spotify promotion and other playlist promotion topics on our blog. (Obviously because we are a music promotion services provider company.)
But at the end of the day, we are a company run by artists for artists. We are in the writing rooms and studios alongside you. So let’s put playlisting and campaign planning aside and speak candidly for a minute on something we all struggle with: rejection.
It’s the job of the songwriter to say what no one else is saying. Which means by default, sometimes our songs aren’t always met with acceptance. And that does not feel great, to put it lightly.
What do you do when you feel rejected for something you poured your heart into? When all you really want to do is climb under a rock?
Understand The Importance Of Your Words
Historically, music has always been the first wave of shaping culture–civil rights movements, breaking down barriers, and inspiring change.
You may feel like your song is just another in a sea of music. But right now, our world needs your music more than ever. We are all “connected” like never before through social media, and yet, people are statistically more isolated and depressed than ever before. People are longing for connection. How do we help bring people together?
Music. It makes us feel less alone. Helps us feel seen and understood in a way that little else can. It creates memories and bonds. It crosses the boundaries of color, race, or religion.
The words you choose to sing matter. Even if the song is about getting drunk in a bar. Bringing happiness to people who feel alone or are having a hard day matters.
