Listen "Planning Your Roll Out; No Trends Needed"
Episode Synopsis
In Episode 4 of Uncut Game, Tony “IamThaConnect” Guidy and Mark “Rapjuggernaut” Hernandez flip the switch on the hype machine and center the conversation around what really moves the needle—strategy, timing, and execution. This one’s for every artist tired of chasing TikTok trends and hoping for overnight wins.Tony takes the lead and breaks down the real reason distribution partners and DSPs overlook your release—you didn’t give them time, you didn’t give them data, and you didn’t have a plan. He talks about walking away from artists who refused to listen, shares the painful lessons from campaigns that lacked proper rollout structure, and makes it clear: ads don’t replace planning—they enhance it.Together, the hosts discuss the value of time as one of the most underutilized resources in the music business and how artists constantly undercut themselves by thinking visibility is enough. They touch on why rollout dates matter, how far in advance DSPs need to be prepped, and the mistakes artists make by launching without a back-end strategy.This episode also comes with exclusive Cheat Sheets and a blog post from the CEO Whisperer, focused on optimal dates, ingestion schedules, and pitching timelines.Whether you’re indie or major, this episode will shift how you think about your next release. No shortcuts, no trends needed—just Uncut Game.• Episode 4 Lead Read: https://linktw.in/GMEDGlEpisode 4 • Cheat Sheets: https://linktw.in/MYSSZL Connect With Uncut Game PodcastX | https://x.com/UncutGamePod Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/uncutgamepod/ TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@uncutgamepod Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/uncutgamepod YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@UncutGamePod Audiomack | https://audiomack.com/uncutgame SoundCloud | https://soundcloud.com/uncutgamepodcast Twitch | https://www.twitch.tv/uncutgamepod
