Getting a record deal


Question Posted Saturday March 24 2007, 7:42 pm

how do singers get record deals! ...and are able to collaborate with songwriters and producers??

(especially girls like cassie who can't even sing!! lol)

I know I can sing well, I've been singing since I was a kid & I've had vocal lessons and I've wanted to be a singer since forever.

Sending in demos to record label companies probably won't work since they must get a gazillion daily that they throw away before listening to anyways...so does anyone know? (besides american idol shows - because if you don't make it to top 5 on that show, you'll forever be known as the 'american idol loser' for the rest of your life!!)

I know some urls of big hit-making producers on myspace and I was thinking about sending them some messages but that might not work.

And I know a lot of producers who are willing to work w/ me but most of the people they deal with are unsigned...so it's not very tempting to accept on those offers.

I do a pop/hip-hop/r&b style.

thanks for the help everyone!!!

unfortunately in the music industry it's all about finding something different...there are millions of girls with your style...its not unique and it's been heard before...I suggest finding your own unique style and sending that in to the rec. execs. And you said Cassie wasn't good...well she thought she was and apparently so did the rec. companies...you might think your good...but they have the final call...I've taken voice lessons since I was a kid too and I've been singing for audiences since I was 5...I know I'm good...but good enough for them...idk...and the same goes for you...it's always worth a try..but first do something to make your sound and style stand out...because right now...it's everyones style

They usually have family connections. Like for example- billy-ray cyrus, and miley cyrus (hannah montana), or julia roberts, and emma roberts. If you send in demo tapes, someone will find it. Just keep trying. Hope I helped.
