You might not learn everything on your own

Person B can tell there are a lot of problems with Person A’s Music.

Now on Two different Levels

Major Differences

I have noticed

When Talking To

Major Artists

One artist could not count a beat

1….2….3….4….

One Artist did not know Time Signatures

4/4…3/4…6/8…12/8…

I had to ask

“Why?”

They said “I don’t make beats.”

These Artist Have Toured Nationally and Made Lots of Money
