This is useless. If you follow this crap, then you will also need contacts, an agent, financial backing (and a good job as a waiter, since you will be waiting to see results for quite some time). Rather, this can be simplified by understanding this. There are only three qualities that make an artist successful (if self-satisfaction is not enough, and egomania must be sated): They are Talent, Tenacity and Taste. You can succeed if you have any two of these. Look at the successful ones and then argue with this point. I am sure that cocksuckers like K and that flynn23 dipshit will try to do this. |
