#introduction

I am just starting out on the Fediverse. I am a video collage artist that makes free promotion music videos on a YouTube channel called Poorly Crafted Music Videos. The videos are made from old media and movies with a very crazy look to them.

If anyone enjoys crazy visuals and unpopular music of Punk,Rock,Metal music of the underground, you might enjoy what I do. I also make official music videos for bands that need them. I work on a donation basis but will often make them for free. Always looking for new bands of any genre to help or to add to my channel and post here.

I hope I will have a few people take a look at what I do in my upcoming posts. I'm glad to start my first steps in breaking free from corporate captured Zionist owned Social media!

Don Jazzy reveals how Calm Down earned global success

Key Points

• Don Jazzy says Calm Down needed heavy investment. He said the team spent millions to scale it.

• The Selena Gomez remix widened the song’s reach. It hit major charts and stayed on Afrobeats lists.

• Labels must fund long campaigns across many markets. That spending brings streams, sync deals and radio play.

Don Jazzy says Calm Down cost millions to build. The hit comes from Rema (Divine Ikubor) and Mavin. The producer shared the figure in a new interview. 

He told listeners the figure in plain terms. Read the Toolz and Bounce interview for full detail. He noted the push continued across many markets.

How the spending worked

Don Jazzy said they spent four to five million dollars. He said the money paid for promotion and placement. That work chased new fans and new radio plays.

The remix with Selena Gomez helped open doors. It reached high on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It also spent a full year on the Afrobeats list.

Don Jazzy asked if people know how revenue flows. He said the returns were large across many streams. But he stressed that success needs constant money and care.

Why labels spend to win

The cost shows how labels push artists abroad. The Rema tribute to family shows his wider appeal. Fans and partners then help move songs worldwide.

Don Jazzy named promotion, playlist work and video spending. He said the push keeps the song in the market. Each new market asks for fresh spend and local teams. 

The result is higher stream counts and paid plays. That mix brings sync deals, radio cuts and ads. All of that adds up to real income for rights.

What this means for Afrobeats

The scale points to Afrobeats now moving global music. It shows how one hit can lift an entire scene. But the path to hits is costly and uncertain.

Artists and labels must balance creative work and cash. Don Jazzy said respect for artists helps justify the spend. He urged smart plans and steady focus on careers.

The interview also sparked talk about gift giving online. Don Jazzy has been in recent ValidUpdates stories this month. Those pieces show how active he remains in music debate.

Industry watchers say the Calm Down model may repeat. But not every song will find the same returns. That fact keeps risk and reward on tight balance.

For fans the news offers a clear inside view. It shows what work lies behind a simple tune. And it gives credit to teams behind hits worldwide.

Don Jazzy kept the tone frank and matter of fact. He used short lines to explain long term plans. His words may change how labels plan new releases.

This story will matter to artists and small labels. They must weigh the cost against hoped for reach. Calm Down stands as a case study for global hits.

Don Jazzy gave one short quote about the spending. “We spent four to five million.” The remark sums up the price of global success.

Stranger Things uses music as a powerful storytelling tool, acting like a portal between the real world and the Upside Down. Instead of serving as mere background, the soundtrack shapes emotion, tension, nostalgia, and character arcs throughout the series. The Duffer Brothers revive the 1980s.

Dear FediLazy:
Being as CD Baby is slowly enshittifying, do folks have a recommended replacement for getting your indie musics uploaded to Tidal, Deezer, Qobuz, YTMusic, etc? Distrokid appears to be one choice, but I'm open to more options. The initial ask, for a good friend, is US-centric but I'm also interested in EU-centric or UK-centric as well, since I'm hoping to help people in those markets too.
