This is the part where I say all is well that ends well!

For the sake of clarification and argument, I will offer my explanation and industry definition of what commercial music is; based on having spent time listening to recordings and also as a music lover.

They are songs that have the following:

1.) A strong hook/memorable chorus.

If no one knows what your song is called, they can’t request it when they hear it on the radio. More importantly, they can’t go to sound transfer people to telecharge it or track it down on the Internet to illegally download a copy of it.

2.) Good melody.

Commercial music is characterized by good melodies (i.e. verses, choruses, and sometimes bridges that get stuck in your head and make you want to sing-along). What can the top selling urban acts of the past years (Stanley Enow, Jovi, Mr Leo, Magasco and many more) attribute their success to? Good melodies (not cool beats) that increase the commercial value of their music.

3) Appealing lyrics.

The lyrics don’t have to be too deep; people just have to be able to relate to them. If you have a way of saying common things in an uncommon way, your lyrics will have an dominion over a songwriter whose song is about the same topic. Write about what’s closest to your heart for credibility and sincerity, and others will be able to relate to your songs – especially if it’s on a subject matter that they know or will experience.

4.) Keep it short.

Keep the length of your songs down to a maximum of four minutes yes I said it shouldn’t go above four minutes.
Jazz and World Music are exceptions. A song that is well written makes people want to hear it again, and again, and again. The longer the song, the less likely that will happen. You Don’t believe me? Check the length of your favorite songs.

5.) Well-Performed.

Most outstanding vocalists are often surprised by how average singers do this.
The fact is that there are more appealing songs performed by average singers than great vocalists. A good song that is well-performed gives it an edge, but if the song is lacking, all of the yelling and vocal acrobatics that singers tend to use to compensate for it, will not make it a better song…

Though it may help the singer to attract better songwriters to work with. Average singers knows they can’t sing too well so they spend their time. making their songs more appealing with style and captivating words while great vocalists rely their strengths on their vocals.

Now that you know the rules of
commercial music success.
