Your Debut Album: A Thread
After grinding behind the scenes for years, your talent is finally helping you make a name for yourself. You’ve developed a large following and the next natural step is releasing your first full length project. Are you ready to show the world you’re here to stay? Let’s find out.
Multiple major labels have reached out to you to sign 6 figure deals. All of them have successful artists on their roster but certain labels allow for more artistic freedom, while others push for big hits by any means and heavy promotion — Who you going with?
Upon signing a deal, your label informs you that they want an industry giant to oversee your project as executive producer. They will not be the sole producer of the album, but they’ll affect the sound of the music greatly. Who do you think would give you the best sound?
You’ve worked with your executive producer and managed to piece together an album you’re really proud of, but to push records, your label is trying to phone in a major artist to feature on one of the best songs. They let you decide who should hop on— so who are you gonna call?
After the feature’s completed, your album is ready to be released. Your label overbooked you for interviews and are letting you decide the two to go to and the two you need to cancel on. Which appearances do you think are gonna help you find your audience?
As your quickly becoming a sensation, your publicist reveals to you that your old social media posts have been discovered, and the posts dating back to 2013 are offensive to different groups— and some even take shots at some artists who are NOW your label mates. Your apology?
LUCKILY, you come out of the scandal unscathed. Your album is dropping this friday and it’s time to show off your live performing talents to hopefully get some albums off the shelves and to get audiences streaming. Which opportunity will excite your target audience the most?

4 huge brands will sponsor your upcoming tour if you sign 5 year marketing contracts with them. Which brand aligns best with *your* brand and will be best fit for you as an artist?
in the middle of your tour, you decide you want to remix one of the songs on the album and make it a single as a treat to the fans. Your budget for big names has been exhausted so your label gives you these 4 artists to choose from. who you got?
you’ve attracted the notice of some legends with your performances and acclaimed album. your label pushes you to release a deluxe version of the project and now you’re able to score yourself a legendary collab. who is going to take your deluxe editions single to the next level?
The deluxe/collectors version drops, and the tracking numbers for the first few days are not what your label was expecting. So we gotta come up with something really quick.
