Embracing Volume for Stability in Music Creation

Creating a large number of songs can lead to greater financial stability for artists. By releasing a higher volume of work, such as thousands of tracks, and fewer resources on marketing, musicians can rely on a smaller percentage of successful songs to generate consistent income. This approach allows creators to distribute risk across their catalog, reducing the volatility that typically comes from focusing on hit-driven models. As the musician's library grows, there’s potential for steady income flow and the ability to plan personal endeavors with more certainty.
