If you are trying to break into the world of hip hop, and you feel you have a catchy tune, and can write music which is going to be successful, you need to know people in order to break in. No matter how much talent you may have, there are so many artists out there who have the same level of talent as you. So, if you really want to break into the scene, and want to make a name for yourself, you are going to have to try to get in with the names in the industry which are big, and have made a claim to fame in the industry. The key to breaking in, and getting your song heard on the radio, in clubs, and anywhere outside a studio, is to know those who are in the industry.
Although it is hard to break in, if you have a new fresh sound, you are going to get heard. But, if you have this great talent, and you know a big name player in the industry, you are going to get so much more play time, and your music is going to get picked up much more quickly, than if you try to do it on your own. Although it may not seem easy or fair, this is the only way to break into the business, especially in the music world where there is already so much talent, and so many artists on the scene.
So, to be heard, you have to get out there, and try to meet people in the industry. You have to find social events, go to the spots where you may meet a big time producer, and just do all you can to meet a big name in the industry, just to get your foot in the door.
