Singer's side jobs

Being able to sing and write songs and produce songs is one thing. But being able to sell your product is one complete bitch of a hard work. I hate having to do what I don't want to be able to sell and also I hate following a trend I'm not comfortable with. It seems like my work, right now, is in the process of a good album making. I've heard almost all positive feedbacks from critiques BUT I've been thrown a lot of strategic moves to be able to be known this time round.

1. Use famous stars for my music videos. I am SO against that since I believe in spending less for better people. Working with friends is just so much better.

2. Have stars signing autographs for my album launch. That's kinda cool but I don't really want to invite stars that have NOTHING to do with me. I mean, those who are featured in my project are more than welcome to join in the signing autographs but those who have nothing to do with my music... why would I have to have them included?

3. Have a VCD/DVD music videos out for the WHOLE album. No! It's costy and I don't like all of my songs turned into music videos. I rather have videos for five main songs.

4. Distribute my album to radio stations. Agree!

5. Sell in rural areas. Hmm still thinking about that.

6. Have as much publicity as you can.

God, it's just so hard to be a singer. Why can't I just sing?
