Remember when there was a thing called CDs…or even cassette tapes? Better yet…remember when you use to put a mix CD…or cassette tape together? Let me start with the cassette.
Back in my days…*Uncle Al stare*…we use to listen to the radio and quickly hit record to dub the song that was jamming at the time. When the song was over, you hit the pause button and wait until another dope song was played. With CDs, you basically dubbed the files you illegally downloaded from Napstar to a blank disc. It was a step up because you had more minutes to use. What a time to be alive *laughs*.
Those days are obviously over. Now, you can make a playlist. A list of your favorite songs…all on one shot. I’ve seen people make R&B (Mostly…shameless plug) playlists, 90s New York Hip Hop, and even Country playlists. If you think it’s possibly a playlist for what you’re thinking at the time, I’m sure it’s one out there. To go deeper, what makes playlists more special?
I give three scenarios on how a playlist can be an addition to your brand and to others. I could give more, but for the sake of time, these are the most important ones…in my opinion.
P.S. I didn’t mention earlier, but the fact that you can share the playlist SO easy! With a link. How dope is that…?! Greatness at your fingertips! Goodbye to the days of buying blank CDs and the popped tapes!
