In Episode 10 of The Uncut Game Podcast, Tony “IamThaConnect” Guidry and Mark “Rapjuggernaut” Hernandez get straight to the heart of a polarizing topic: Has technology made it harder or easier to be an artist today? It’s a real milestone moment—10 episodes deep—and they’re not holding anything back. From label politics to playlisting, fake metrics to real motion, this episode dives deep into the noise and narrows in on what’s really required to make it in 2025.
Kingpin and Tony break down how the digital landscape, while flooded with opportunity, has created new traps for artists who lack strategy. They discuss gatekeeping, AI illusions, the death of artist development, and the rise of misinformation-as-a-service. We get gems about why a business plan isn’t optional, and how most scams stem from poor planning—not necessarily bad intent. They also tackle direct fan engagement, iHeart Radio’s ad revenue dominance, catalog confusion, and why strategy always trumps clout-chasing.
This one’s filled with hard truths, hilarious moments, real-life examples, and strategic takeaways you won’t find on your explore page. Episode 10 isn’t just game—it’s a blueprint.
