HOW TO STRUCTURE YOUR BUSINESSES SCROLL

FOR THE FUTURE OF MUSIC

In This Post, Eye Would Like To Talk About The Business, The Culture And The Future Of Music. Since This Kin Is On The Lunar Tone Of Challenge, This Post Will Challenge The Current System Of The Music Business And Will Provide Solutions For Independent Artist Who Choose To Make Their Music A Career.

In The Early Days Of Earning A Living Making Music Was Either Through A Church, A King Or By Way Of Paid Performances. 

According To British History And The Archives Of The Musical Monarchs, Musical Knowledge Was Very Important In The Houses Of What Was Known As The British Royals, And Nobles In Renaissance England Or Medieval Times. It Seems To Have Been A Part Of The Royal Family Tradition, To Give The Children Of The Dynasty Private Lessons On How To Play Instruments, Sing And The Philosophy Of Music At A Very Early Age.

Music Distribution Was Also Important To Them As Well. Not Only Was It Important In Medieval England, You Can Also Find The Christian And Muslim Instrumentation In Florence Italy.

CHRISTIAN AND MUSLIM PLAYING INSTRUMENTS CANTIGAS DE SANTA MARIA OF ALFONSO X

Again, This Can Be Found In Florence Italy And Was Important There As Well, Known As The “Canticles Of Holy Mary”. These Are Said To Be 420 Poems Written In Portuguese During The Reign Of Alfonso X Of Castile El Sabio (1221-1284).

Poetry, Music And Rap Goes Back Much Further Than The 1980’s. This Is Something Eye Have Maintained Consistently In My Writings And Teachings For Many Years Now.

1. The Origins Of Rap Can Found In Olmec Nuwbun Tablets Under The Word “Nashuda”, Which Happens To Mean Lyrics.

2. Metaphors Can Be Traced Back To The Ancient Empires Of Mesopotamia. As Early As 3100 BC.

3. Nearly Everything That Was Initially A Part Of Hip-Hop Culture, Can Be Found In The Olmec Nuwbun Culture Even Until This Day. High Top Fades, Cornrows/Braids, Graffiti Art, And So On.

ANCIENT OLMEC HAIRSTYLES

THE OLMEC NUWBUN MOHAWK

OLMEC NUWBUN CORNROWS

It All Started With The Olmec Nuwbun People And Very Few Believed Me When Eye Told The World This Many Years Ago. None Of This Is African Culture, But Rather Native American Culture.

Most Will Claim Cornrows To Be An African Thing, Founded In Ethiopia As A Symbol Of Being Resistant To Slavery? This Would Make Sense If The Africans Were Known To Be Resistant To Slavery? However, They Are Not Known To Be Resistant To Slavery. Those Who Have A Clear History Of Being Resistant To Slavery Were “The Black Seminoles.”

To Further Nullify The False African Narrative On The Origin Of Cornrows, You Would Have To Address The Olmecs Having Them In Stone Thousands Of Years Ago Before Slavery Existed?

FURTHERMORE, The Origin Of Corn Is Also A Native American Thing, Not A African Thing. History Has Maize Or Corn Being Founded In Central America By The Indigenous People Of The Americas From TEOSINTE GRASS 9000 Years Ago.

So, Another False Narrative Debunked,

The Original Black Native American Culture Gave Birth To What Is Known As Original Hip-Hop Culture And It Is Falsely Being Accredited To African Culture. Ancient Egyptian Culture Finds Its’ Roots Here In Native American Culture, Not The Other Way Around.

Please Refer To Blog Section To Learn More About True Native American History, Culture And The True Origin Of Things.

OLMEC PEOPLE FROM THE LI SHANG VINE

These Were Your Asiatic Black Men, Who Were Not Africans.

The False African Narrative Must Go. None Of These People Were Africans.

It All Came From The Americas. North, South And Central. Why Is This So Important? Well, You Must Know The Origin Of Things In Order To Know Where Things Are Going.

THE ANCIENT OLMEC NUWBUN ANKH

Hip-Hop Was Founded Here In The Americas And Everyone Knows That, But People Will Still Accredit It To Being Something African. Why?

Nearly Every Popular Genre Of Music In The World Was Founded In The Americas, So, Please Cut The Crap! Funk, Jazz, Soul And So On Was Founded Here In The Americas. The Caribbean Is Nothing More Than A Surrounding Island Of The Americas, With Ascendants Of Native Americans Called Arawaks, Garifuna And Black Carib. Thus, Reggae Being Another Popular Genre Of Music Of Native Americans.

Artifacts Of These Native Tribes Have Been Found Here In The State Of Georgia. Tracing Back To 4000 BC, 8000 BC And Even 10,000 BC According To The State Of Georgia Genealogy Records? Once Again, Black Native Americans.

Cool J Is Still The First Modern Day Rap Superstar And Rakim Introduced Th 5% Nation Of Gods And Earths To The Game.

LL COOL J AND RAKIM

The Gold Chains Are Clearly A Symbol Of Royalty And Notice Rakim Had One Of Them Olmec Fades In The 80’s. Years Ago Eye Even Proved To You All That The “Black Panther” Was Stolen From The Olmec Black Jaguar. Just A Reminder Before We Move Forward Here.

THE ORIGINAL BLACK JAGUAR FROM THE

XI (She) CLAN DYNASTY

This Is Also The Dynasty Of Where The X-Men And Their Helmets Were Stolen.

THE OLMEC XI-MEN WHO BECAME THE X-MEN

Now That The Cultural Influence Is Clear And It Should Also Be Clear About That Which They Have Used To Empower Themselves As Well. Before Eye Provided You All With The Cultural History, Eye Was Covering The Origins Of Music Distribution Traditions In The UK And How It Was Customary For The Monarchs/Royals To Have A Background In Music.

Performances By Muslims And Christians Was Also A Significant Part Of The Music Culture In The 1400’s When Music Royalties Was First Introduced.

Thus, Music Has A History In Religion, Royal Tradition And A History Of Distribution Long Before The 1970’s. Now, If You Are An Independent Artist And Would Like To Have A Successful Music Career? Then, There Are A Number Of Things Eye Would Suggest In Order To Have Longevity, While Maintaining Your Independence And Evolving With The Wave Of Earning A Living Through Music. 

Since Music Has Now Become A Global Market Game, Many Of The Rules Have Changed And There Are A Number Of Opportunities For Independent Artist, If The Proper Plans And Strategies Are Implemented You Can Make Your Music A Career. 

There Is A Public Way To Do It And There Is A Private Way To Do It. 

Since Eye Operate From The Private Sector, Eye Will Share My Experiences From The Private Sector, Where Autonomy And Independence Resides. 

This Is The Sector Where The Wealthiest People In The World Reside. IE., Banking Dynasties And Royal Families. 

For Those Whom May Not Know, The Private Sector Is The Part Of The Economy Or Industry That Is Exempt From Direct Government Control And This Is According To The Black’s Law Dictionary. 

The Venue Of Exemption Is The Venue Where Those In Elite Positions Of Power Operate. 

However, My 2025 Advice For Independent Artist Is Practical And It Covers A Variety Of Important Things To Ensure A Long Lasting Career. 

Number One, You Must Overstand That Music Is An Art-form, Just As Well As A Business. If Independent Artist Treat Their Music Career As Business With Tangible Products, Goods And Services, They Will Have A Successful Music Career. 

The Game Has To Be More Than Just Digital Streaming Platforms. Having Tangible Products Is A Must, Shows, Events And A Team.

The Best Way In My View Is To Run Your Music Career As A Co-operative System Of Economics. Since 2025 Is The Official International Year Of Co-operatives, It Could Only Enhance Your Music Career As An Independent Artist, By Running Your Independent Music Career As An International Co-operative. 

One Of The Primary Reasons For This Is Based Upon Your Music Career Being A Lifestyle, A Business And Will Require You Having Team Members. In My Past 20 Plus Years Of Experience, There Is No Doubt,  The Co-operative Business Model Is The Way To Go As Far As The Future Of Music. 

You Can Establish Your Own INGO, Your Own Dynasty Trust And Run Your Music Business Similar To A Co-operative And It Will Work Very Well For You. Trust Me, Because Eye Have Done These Types Of Things For Nearly Two Decades Now.

This Is The Best Way To Safeguard Your Assets, Resources And Ensure Your Autonomy And Independence. You Can’t Be Independent, If You Are Not Really Independent.

The Public Policy Corporate Way Of Doing Music Business Is Just Not It And It Will Only Get Worse With A.I. Voice Cloning And The Corrupt Record Companies/Digital Streaming Platforms Ripping Artist Off. IE.,Universal Music Group, Sony Music, Warner Music And Also Spotify. 

This Is Where The Destruction Of Music Has Been Since 1999 With The Establishment Of Nabster And Digital Streaming Platforms Charging $11 A Month To Have Access To Anybodies Music On Their DSP’s. 

While Only Providing Artist Less Than A Penny On A Dollar. 

STREAMING NUMBERS FOR RADIO AND DSP’S

Clearly, No One Can Survive With Those Numbers. Thus, The Mentality And The Game Has To Change. The Key To Changing The Game Is Ownership, Autonomy And Independence. 

For The Past 15 Years, Eye Have Been Pushing The Co-operative Business Model For All Products, Goods And Services. The Reality Of The Need For This, Has Never Before Been More Clear Than @ The Present Moment. 

As There Are More People Complaining About The Music Business And The Direction That Music Is Going Than Ever Before. In Particular, This Thing Called “Hip-Hop” Has Destroyed The Lives Of Many And Has Been The Biggest Culprit Of Genocide In The Past 25 Years.

You Even Have People Such As Dr. Dre Saying That He Is Not Inspired By What Is Happening With Hip-Hop These days.

DRE DRE THE HIP-HOP MOGUL

However, Eye Hate To Be The One To Say Eye Told You So. As Many Of You All Will Recall Me Doing The Song Entitled “Who Killed Hip Hop?” In 2007 And My Giving Birth To A New Genre Of Music Called “High Resonance” In 2006?

THE OLMEC BLACK FIST PROJECT 2006 By Yours Truly

This Was Nearly 20 Years Ago Now And No One Can Say Eye Did Not Warner Everybody. My Reason For Doing This, Was To Avoid The Corporate Destruction Of Music By The Music Industry, Of Which We Have Been Seeing Since 1991. NWA, Dr. Dre And Gangster Rap Was A Major Contribution To The Destruction Of Hip-Hop Music.

In Addition To The Closed Door Meeting Agenda In LA, 1991 Called “THE NEW DIRECTION OF RAP MUSIC”. Rapper Krazie Bone Exposed The Hidden Agenda In Video Below.

Essentially This Is What Happens When You Put All The Wrong People In Positions Of Power And Ownership. For Many Years Eye Have Been The Only Person That Eye Know Of Who Has Publicly Been Saying That Eye Hate Hip Hop.

It Should Now Be Clear Why Eye Have Been Saying This For Nearly 20 Years. There Is No Way To Revive It @ This Point, It Is Too Far Gone And It Is Too Satanic To Do Anything With It.

The Chicago Native Lupe Fiasco Is Said To Be The Only Rapper Who Is A Professor Of A University With A Degree In Hip Hop Music? How Is A Hip Hop Degree Determined? And Who Decided What That Degree Entails?

What Is It Based Upon? Did DJ Kool Herc, Cool J Or KRS-ONE Have A Say So In That? Eye Am Pretty Sure The Answer Is No! So, Who Determines What A Degree In Hip Hop Entails? And How Can That Be Used In The World?

LUPE FIASCO THE HIP HOP PROFESSOR

Blast Master KRS-ONE, Made Some Statements About Hip-Hop Years Ago, Which Had Me Shaking My Head. He Suggested Making The Letter “H” Capital In Hip-Hop? Eye Really Don’t See What Difference This Will Make, When It Is Still Owned By The “JEWS”.

Again, Ownership Is Key And The Reason Why People Such As KRS-ONE Cannot Have Any Say So In What Direction “Hip-Hip” Goes In, Is Based Upon Him Not Having Any Real Ownership In It.

This Has Been The Problem For Far Too Long And Our Founding Fathers Of “Hip-Hop” Have Absolutely No Say So In Where “Hip-Hop” Is To Go From Here. The Same Applies To All Other Genres Of Music, Except For “High Resonance”

As Eye Clearly Have Say So In Where “High Resonance Mu-sic” Is To Go. This Essentially Is The New “Genre Of Music” That Is To Move Us Forward No Matter The Genre Of Music You Choose. It Should All Be Under The Umbrella And Banner Of “High Resonance” In My View. In The UK, They Started A “Genre” Called Other For “High Resonance Mu-sic” To Be Uniquely Identified As Something Different.

My Suggestion To Independent Artist Is To Create Your Own Independent Music Fan Club App. This Will Allow You To Control Your Proceeds In A Direct To Consumer Format. You Can Assign Whatever Products You Want Inside Your App.

You Should Hire A Team Of Developers To Create A Custom App For You. If You Are Not Really Sure About How That Should Be Done, Contact highresonance@iwb.coop For More Assistance With This.

My Reason For Suggesting The Co-op Business Model Is To Keep Third Parties From Taking So Much Of Your Resources Away From You. Below Are A List Of Products You Should Consider As An Independent Artist On The Business Side Of Things..

 1. Albums

  2. Merch

THE NEW GENERATION OF HIGH RESONANCE

It Is Up To Us To Properly Train Our Children On How To Be Professional Business Men And Entrepreneurs. Otherwise, They Will Be Taken Advantage Of And Will Always Be Starving Artist. 

This Essentially Is What Has Happened To Hip Hop Music. Overly Saturated With People WHO Have Very Few Skill Sets, Talent And No Business Acumen. 

Thus, The Artist Are Always Taken Advantage Of By The Music Industry. 

There Are A Few Reasons Why This Will Continue Under Public Policy. 

1. A.I. Vocal Cloning & Music Copyright Infringement. 

2. Autotune Digital Audio Workstation Synthetic Keyboard Sounds For Artist To Produce More Synthetic Music. 

3. Quantized Machine Sound, No Live Feel To It. Drill, Trap Low Resonance.  

This Is Why Sampling Was So Important In The Late 80’s And Early 90’s In Hip Hop. We Could Get Authentic Sounds Of The Live, Not Quantized Machine Sounding Music. 

432 HZ Before The 440 HZ. Getting The Authentic Sound From People WHO KNEW How To Play Instruments And Record Them. 

However, You Can Get Some Equipment With Authentic Sounds In Them Already Built In. 

4. MIDI Packs, With Preprogramed Cord Progressions And Those Can Be Used To Make High Resonance Mu-sic These Days. 

5. In The Late 80’s And Early 90’s, Labels Stop Signing Bands Or People WHO Preferred Live Sounds With Gear, Because It Became Too Time Consuming And Expensive. The Live Bands Nowadays Just Make Most Of Their Money Touring.

6. This Is Where A.I. Songs Become More Popular, Because They Can Avoid Copyright Infringement And They Can Easily Have Ownership Of The A.I. Version Of Artist Music. As Eye Overstand It, There Is Nothing You Can Do About A.I. Cloning Copyright Infringement?

The Key To Success Is Ownership. Not The Illusion Of Ownership. A.I Now Allows Them To Take Royalties, That Would Usually Go To Artist And Musicians, To Go To The People WHO Don’t Sing, Rap, Write Or Produce. This Is The Current State Of The Music Industry. Everything That They Propose Only Leads To More Problems.

Universal Music Group, Sony Music And Warner Music Are Suing AI Startups For Copyright Infringement. They Suing Suno And Udio For Copyright Infringement. This Is A Bit Strange, Because A.I. Really Can’t Be Sued, As Machines Are Machines And Artificial Intelligence, Being Sued By Humans Is Really Bizarre To Me.

Eye Did A Simple Google Search And It Was Right There.

RECORD COMPANIES SUING A.I. MODEL COMPANY

However, The Three Record Labels Recently Partnered With A Company Called Soundlab, To Make A.I Voice Clones Of Their Own. Thus, They Don’t Want The Current A.I Models To Do It, So They Suing Suno And Undio, To Stop Them From Doing What They Are Going To Be Doing Themselves To Artist Music?

UMG’S NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH SOUNDLAB

Now They Got The Terminator Stealing People Music. You Talking About A War With The Machines? We Are Literally Being Forced To Compete With The Terminator And I-Robot Over Our Music.

This Ultimately Gives Them The Ability To Use Soundlab Plug-ins To Clone These Artist Music. This Means That Any Artist On Their Record Labels Can Be Replaced By The “TERMINATOR” And The Other Singing And Rapping Robots.

For $11 Per Month You Will Be Able To Listen To Any Artist They Have On Their DSP’s. The Artist Music Will Essentially Have No Value On Their DSP’s And They Will Now Be Competing With The I-Robots We Seen On The Will Smith Movie.

According To The New 2025 Trailer Sony, Along With Elon Musk, IROBOT 2 Is To Be Released This Year. Eye Am Not Looking Forward To Competing With No Dam Machines. Really Though? What’s Next? They Will Be Telling Us, That It Is Ok To Fall In Love With A Machine, Have Sex With These Machines And Make Music With These Machines?

These New Artist Song Uploads Are Said To Be In Hundreds Of Thousands Per Day? Clearly, The Future Of Music Is Going To Be With Robots Or With Humans On Our Side Of The Ledger?

Far To Many People Are Uploading Their Music To These Digital Streaming Platforms And Are Losing The War Against The Machines.

7. These Same Problems Are Going To Persist With YouTubers And Content Creators. In Essence, Any One WHO Depends On Content Creation Monetization, Will Be Affected By This As Well. Any Music AI Generated Receiving A Copyright Strike, Will Become A Major Problem. Why? Because The Machine Will Win The Copyright Infringement Battle Every Time.

People Will End Up Loosing Their Channels Altogether, If They Try To Dispute A Copyright Infringement Claim Against The Machine. 1999 Was The End Of Artist Being In Control Of Their Own Music.

The Artist Formerly Known As Prince Struggled Wit Ownership Of His Music For A Long Time, While Jay Z And Puffy Are Said To Have Made It Even More Difficult For Prince. Please See Video Below. The Super Diabolical Jigga Man.

1996 Was The Death Of Tupac And The Telecommunications Act Signed By Bill Clinton. Consolidated Radio In The United States. Clear Channel AM, Qmillus/KQCS  FM Bought Most Of The Radio Stations In The US. 

This Would Give Them Pretty Much The Same Power And Control As UMG, Sony Music And Warner Music Over The Artist.

Producer Managers/A&R’s Were Taking A Lion Share Of The Profits, Along With The Record Labels In The Previous Era Of Music. The 360 Deals Were Becoming More Widespread And The Quality Of Much Became Less Than Subpar.

8. This Is Where Diversity And Creativity Becomes A Must And These Are The Things Of Which New Up And Coming Artist Must Know. In The New “High Resonance Era” Of Music, You Must Be As Good As You Can Be In Every Way That You Can. The Less You Sound Like Someone Else, The Less Chances Of Your Competing With The I-ROBOTS Of A.I., As The Robots Are Cloning Those Who Are Sounding The Same.

Furthermore, A Lot Of People Are Now Becoming A.I. Artist, As To Where All Of Their Music Is Not Really Their Music, But Rather A.I. Generated And They Think This Somehow Makes Them An Artist Or Producer?

People Who Essentially Have Zero Talent Are Now Allowing A.I. To Generate Music For Them And They Are Calling Themselves Artist And Producers.

You Must Find Your Audience And Galvanize Your Listeners. Embrace A Movement, Embrace A Sound And Build Your Brand. 

9. Touring, Performing And Putting Out Music Consistently Is A Must. Tell You Story, Connect With Your Audience And Establish A Presence. Market A Tour Around Your Music Catalogue And Build A Street Team Of Co-operators. 

Treat The Music As If It Is A International Co-operative Business. 

Being Unique, Original, Entertaining And Standing Out Is A Necessity In Order To Be A Successful Artist In The Future. Furthermore, Music With A Message And Music Of Substance Is What The World Will Be Looking For. Something Timeless And Endless That Will Age Well. High Resonance Music Will Always Out Live Low Resonance Music. Always Remember, Ownership, Private Collections Of A Valuable Product And Get Into The Product Business. 

The Quality Of The Music  Is Going To Become More Important In The High Resonance Era. Flooding The Market With High Quality Music Is The Thing People Will Respect More In The Future. Especially, Those WHO Value Their Family Treasures.

Getting Autograph Copies Of The Products, Goods, And Services Will Mean Something Once More. Cherish Your Family Treasure And Be Inspired By Greatness.

The Value Of These Things Are Insurmountable. The Implementation Of These Things Will Ensure Success Of All WHO Par-Take In Acquiring These, Products, Goods And Services. 

Being In The Position Of Power And Ownership Is A Must Moving Forward.

In Closing, You Must Have A Direct To Fan Or A Direct To Consumer Model For Your Music Business And Becoming An A.I. Artist Is Not Something Eye Will Be Doing. Why? As Authenticity Is The Highest Frequency To Leave The Human Body And Authenticity Over An Artificial Intelligence Robot Is A No Brainer For Me.

However, Everyone Has Free Will And Must Do That Which Is Righteous For Them. In Other Words, The Choice Is Yours. The Crabs In A Barrel Over-Saturation Thing Has Never Been For Me And Long Term Authenticity Is The Model For Myself And Indigenous Entertainment.

You Are Either With The Machine Or Against It And For Far Too Long Our People Have Been Taken Advantage Of By These People, Who Only Want You To Sell Your Soul To Machines, Robots And Social Media. Some People Are Just Too Far Gone To Turn Back Now And Most Of Their Lives Are Consumed By Social Media, And Now They Have Multiple Mental Health Diagnosis.

All Of It Is A Form Of Mind Control And Unfortunately People Are Loosing The Battle Against The Machines Like Sarah Conner In The Terminator. No Middle Man And No Third Party Is The Objective Here For Us.

HIGH RESONANCE RULE 2017 By King El Rey

We Must Set The Example, Be The Example And Live The Example.
