One More Time Podcast

AI music is already changing the music industry, and independent artists are stuck trying to figure out what's real, what's hype, and what they need to worry about.

In this episode, Miss Krystle (better known as Top Music Attorney) breaks down what indie artists need to know about AI-generated music, Suno, Udio, copyright ownership, AI fingerprinting, cloned voices, streaming royalty dilution, disclosure, and why she is personally leading class action lawsuits on behalf of independent artists.

This conversation is for any artist, producer, songwriter, or creator wondering whether AI is going to help them, hurt them, expose them, or completely change the rules around their music.

Content creation for musicians is loud, confusing, and honestly exhausting. One person says post more. Another says post less. One says follow trends. Another says never follow trends. So in this episode, we pulled 9 of our favorite videos about content for artists and broke down the real lesson behind each one.

We talk about reposting old songs, batching content, getting over the fear of posting, using Trial Reels, creating emotional connection instead of “out now” posts, and doubling down when something finally works. After each lesson, we also give artists a simple homework assignment they can actually use this week.

KELS didn’t wait until she was “big enough” to tour. She used touring to BECOME big enough.

In this episode, we break down how she went from cleaning houses to selling out secret shows, building her own DIY touring model, playing unconventional venues like diners, barbershops, libraries, and churches, and turning real-life fan connection into serious momentum.

She shares how she picks cities, sells tickets, keeps costs low, uses fan data, promotes her music relentlessly, and built a world around her “dirty blues” sound that people actually want to be part of.

Citizen the Artist has generated over 1 billion views across social media by pairing his music with some of the most intentional, cinematic, and scroll-stopping short-form videos on the internet. But behind the massive numbers is a process built on hooks, pacing, psychology, quality control, and a deep understanding of what makes people keep watching.

In this episode, we break down Citizen’s entire approach to viral music content, from his “mill-liker” checklist and first 3-second rule to his high-level editing process, VFX, ideation, and commitment to making every post feel impossible to ignore.

We also get into the bigger question every artist should care about: once you have the attention, how do you turn views into listeners, fans, money, and a real career?
