Manage episode 476405142 series 3654084
In this no-fluff, full-pressure episode of Uncut Game, Tony “IamThaConnect” Guidry and Mark “Rapjuggernaut” Hernandez confront the elephant that keeps stomping through artist budgets—radio spins and DJ support.We break the silence on what it really costs to get your song on the radio, the difference between buying spins and building relationships, and why some artists sabotage their own songs by skipping the basics like formatting, timing, and follow-through.Tony pulls up with real figures—not fairy dust—and dives deep into the myth that radio is dead. He makes it plain: radio still matters, but only if you’re moving with strategy, performance metrics, and the right timing. That means stop thinking $250 will get you nationwide spins, and start planning with intention.Kingpin holds no punches. He calls out the artists faking radio love for clout and talks real positioning—what you need to have in place before even dialing a DJ's number. From how to actually service a record, to why DJ drops still matter, this episode is a masterclass in unlearning the shortcuts and doing it the right way.We also introduce this week’s Cheat Sheet: DJ Servicing Checklist, giving you the essential tools you need to start building a real support network without wasting money on dead plays and fake promotions.This one’s not just conversation—it’s curriculum.
