Defining Quality Music

Ikey Music Publishing: Quality Music


Just because a song makes you feel in an unfavorable way, does that really mean it is not good quality material? As a music creator, our mission is to reach deep inside of people’s souls and make them feel what we are feeling at that very moment, or at least make some sort of connection.
Regardless of how our lyrics, hooks, or melody arrangements make you feel, if you feel a change in mood, then we have accomplished our goal, in a way.

Recently I have read an article written by Bobby Owsinski called “Quality Is A Moving Target” discussing how quality music may be in front of our faces, however, we may not realize it simply because we don’t fit the market that particular music is trying to reach. Owsinski brings up an excellent point in which I fully agree with, reframing from calling music good or bad, because what may seem bad for me, may seem excellent for others.

Justin Bieber
A perfect example would be Justin Bieber and the amount of criticism he received when he was gaining momentum with his first string of hits. Many people were convinced Justin was a fad, and would soon be forgotten, however, because his music reached the hearts of so many fans, he is now one of the most successful artist of our time, quality music?

As a musician and music lover myself, I understand the amount of work that is required in making a song, especially if you are trying to make a hit. Regardless if you’re trying to entertain 12 thousand people or 12 people, an audience that will consider your music as “good quality” will accept your music. This proves Ikey Music Publishing’s beliefs, to encourage music creators to never quit searching for your audience. As we love to say, Explore, Create, and, Entertain.
