MusicAlly recently released an article titled “The Future of Streaming and Music Marketing Post Covid-19”

In the article the writer mentions the impact that COVID-19 has had on emerging artists, they state “We have seen more emerging artists really grow their audience this year more than ever before,” but, “right at the very top it’s almost complete stagnation.”

Even though COVID-19 has had a great impact on the music business as a whole and really hurt some of the major artists as touring has ground to a halt, the emerging artists have been able to thrive.  

This has largely been due to the increase in social metrics and streaming activity for artists and fans spending even more time on social networks, including sharing music.

The writer also notes that many of the major artists have pulled their plans for album release as touring is one of their major marketing pillars, and this in turn has opened opportunities for emerging artist that rely heavily on social media for promotion.

Here is one company in the space that focuses heavily on emerging artists and social media marketing, that the article failed to mention…..
