Alright,
it seems as though Fackestock, oops, I mean Facebook, has turned into Myspace.
But let me give some of you artists a few social networking tips.
First tip- if you want
anyone to buy something from you, you should probably refrain from addressing
these same people as “bitches”, “hoes”, or “suckas”, and using the words: “I am
better than you”, “the movement”, “without you”, “get your money right”, etc. Why? Because it seems as if your “movement” is not
moving anywhere, and a “bitch” is not going to buy your product, “hoes” are too
busy working, and “without us”, you are not being social, and my “money is
alright” in my pocket.
Second-
stop posting the same bullshit over and over again, that is called spam. Unless
you have 1300 new friends today, I am sure that the hundred or so people that
live next door or in the video have seen it already. We all like looking at
ourselves but damn, this is not promotion, it is more like social bullying.
Also, there is a little button that allows people to hide your post, and after
the 15th time of you posting the same grannie video they most likely
used it, I know I did.
Third-
make an original product. There is such a thing as creativity; it is a skill
that most entertainers, writers, and poets have to have. Except if you are a
model and are only blessed because your parents happen to have sex one night in
the restroom of a club. Originality is
what will set you apart from the thousands of other rap, trap, hustle groups
that are out there starving but swear they swaggin.
Fourth-
take that shit to Twitter. Yeah, learn how to Tweet- you can spam them fools
all day, and they seem to like it. Twitter has a different breed of humans that
gather around the digital water cooler. They live to follow you no matter where
you go, you can even use your followers to repost you bullshit. But there is a catch, it better be good.
And last
but not least- learn to brand yourself properly. Make sure that you identify
who the hell you are and what you want to be and do it to the fullest. There
are many people out there that realize in order to make money they have to make
a product that has an identity, it is called branding. It is like when you see
the red and white can you know it is a coke, and the can with blue is a Pepsi.
Social
networking is just that- being social. If you want to cram your shit down
someone else’s page, you should also learn how to share others shit. It is kind
of like when we were in elementary school and you sat in the corner cause you
would not give up the toy. Right now most
of you are holding onto the toys too long and being greedy.
