We found an article about “Pay-for-Play in Radio Stations” on Billboard.com<\/a>. You can also see this on our social media.
We have been denouncing this approach since Battl Victory Records<\/strong> existed and are committed to more fairness. We fight this “pay-for-play” system.
Unfortunately, thanks to the major labels, this system has spread from America to most countries in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most famous example is EMINEM. Nobody wanted to play a white rapper on the radio. After a long back and forth, the decision was made to simply buy broadcasting minutes and thus pay for the radio stations. Everything else is history. Sad isn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So here are a few tips from us on how you can support your favorite artists properly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

1. Mouth to Mouth Marketing:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
  • try to talk about your favorite artists as often as possible or play them to other people. Mouth-to-mouth marketing is one of the most powerful marketing tools out there!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    2. Social Media:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    • Share the posts and stories as often as possible<\/li>
    • Saves the posts, likes and comments<\/li>
    • Invite new friends as much as possible (or share the page, also in groups)<\/li>
    • You can achieve a very good reach, especially in TikTok, by using the music from the library and tagging your artist<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      3. Streaming & download portals:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      • Stream your favorite artists as often as possible on a continuous loop (also through the night if you sleep anyway)<\/li>
      • shares the profiles and likes them<\/li>
      • Downloaded the songs<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        4. Merchandise:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
        • Buy the merchandise from official places like our online store (we do not work with any retailer)<\/li>
        • Show your merchandise as often as possible<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

          This brings your favorite artists a little bit closer to really making a living from it. So they also have the chance to get into the charts! Every stream, download, merchandise sale counts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          But all this is no guarantee that your favorite artists will also be on the radio. So here are some easy tips that anyone can use:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          • Get together in groups and call the radio stations daily and ask for one of the artist’s songs<\/li>
          • Writes e-mails to the stations<\/li>
          • Call on social media within the groups to join you and the artist<\/li>
          • Wish for your favorite artist wherever possible<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Soon the radio stations will play your artist and make you happy too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            In the independent sector we all have to stick together and that’s the only way we can do it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
