YOU WANT TO MAKE A LIVING FROM YOUR MUSIC 

But you feel like you're always a few steps behind — overwhelmed, underpaid, and unsure where to start. The dream of earning real income from your music is exciting but for many, it also feels distant, complicated, and even impossible. Most artists are so focused on creating that they never learn how to monetize. They don’t know what they don’t know. And without the right knowledge, they leave money on the table, again and again. 

They’ve been taken advantage of. They’ve signed the wrong deals. They’ve watched opportunities pass them by. And the worst part? It wasn’t because they weren’t good enough. It was because no one ever taught them the business side of music. That’s when the doubt creeps in. The shame. The imposter syndrome. The thought of, “How did I not know this?” And that heartbreaking moment when you check your bank account and wonder why your talent isn’t translating into income. 

But here’s what changes everything: Education puts money in your pocket. It protects your work. It gives you back your power. You don’t need to become someone else. You just need to become a forever student of the business. That’s how the artist becomes the entrepreneur. That’s how the dream becomes the career. That’s how you stop surviving and start thriving.  

Amani’s expertise lies in helping independent artists build sustainable, successful careers by mastering both the creative and business sides of the music industry. Through decades of industry experience as a DJ, educator, and music entrepreneur, Amani developed his proprietary framework: The 7 Pillars of the Thriving Artist, a roadmap designed to help artists go from overlooked to in-demand. His teachings empower artists to overcome overwhelm, creative stagnation, and revenue plateaus, replacing guesswork with strategy and survival with abundance. 

Anyone serious about thriving in today’s music industry must learn to master each of these seven essential pillars: 

Pillar 1: Royalties & Marketing 👀 – Understand where your money is and how to claim it. Learn the most effective ways to promote your music to the right audience. 

Pillar 2: Revenue Streams 💰 – From streaming and sync to merch and touring, know your options and how to activate them. 

Pillar 3: Creativity 🔥– Cultivate fresh ideas not just for your sound, but for monetizing it in new ways. 

Pillar 4: Abundance 🤝– Build strategic collaborations with artists, producers, and partners to multiply your reach and results. 

Pillar 5: IP Protection 📚 – Know your rights and protect what you create. Your intellectual property is your most valuable asset.  

Pillar 6: Analytics 📈 – Use data to guide your decisions. Learn what’s working, what’s resonating, and what’s next. 

Pillar 7: Resilience 💪🏽 – Stay in the game. Bounce back from setbacks, flops, and failures with power and purpose. 

When you align all 7 pillars, you transform from a struggling artist to a thriving entrepreneur capable of building a career that lasts.
