What All Music Artist Can Learn From Slim Jesus It’s crazy how many musicians are made at the new internet sensation Slim Jesus. But instead of hating on him you need to realize there is a ton of slick psychological marketing behind everything he did and actually all musician need can learn a lot from him from a music marketing aspect. Here are 3 subliminal marketing tactics he used to get people to pay attention and listen to his music.
The first thing is his name. His name was formerly Slim Swag, he actually had a girl look (as you can see in the pic on the left lol because he had the Eminem look and he was skinny as hell so he said his name was Slim Swag.
Then he decided to become a rapper, and change his look and with the look came a name change. He said in his interview that he kept the first part of the name slim because he knew people would think he was trying to come at or compare himself to Slim Shady and at least check out his music and he decided to change swag to Jesus for the wow factor. His whole goal was make his name catchy and original and make people think in their head he seems like he would have some shit to talk about in his music with a name like that.
So artist make sure you have a catchy, original, or tagline to your name that will build curiosity or stick out to music fans. For example the name 2 chainz & Wiz Khalifa or name that stand out and people will remember them.
Second He Created an Angle. He openly admitted his music is fake. As we know half the artist in the music industry are fake, but there hasn’t been an artist to date to say their music is fake and they don’t do the shit they rap about. He is music is about money and murder, but like I said he openly admits he doesn’t do any of that type of stuff he raps about he just grew up listening to drill music and it influenced the way he raps.
