In this episode of The Hook Podcast, we talk about the scams we've encountered in the music industry so you know what to avoid! We also answer the questions you all left on the last episode - from AI in the music industry to how we face the fear that comes with releasing music. I promise we're not AI generated. Make sure to leave more questions for the Q&A section in the next episode, and LIKE and SUBSCRIBE if you enjoyed! And of course, check out my co-hosts RSC @Rscybusiness and The Vibe @itsthevibe!
