20,000 Plays in first 18 Days of Launch — SoundCloud (No promotion)

In my first 18 days going public with my songwriting, there was great response on SoundCloud—more than 16,000 plays on a brand-new artist profile with zero promotion. No ads, no repost chains, no playlist buys. Just a small batch of songs from my catalog and organic listener discovery.

This early response has was an indicator of hook strength and stickiness, especially considering only a fraction of my writing has been uploaded so far. Fans have been finding the music through SoundCloud’s algorithm- Discovery feed, and station recommendations, which tells me the writing is resonating on its own.

As I continue building this site and releasing more lyrics, hooks, and toplines, I’ll also be slowly uploading additional demos to SoundCloud to keep feeding that momentum. It’s exciting to see what can happen when the songs simply speak for themselves.
