"90% based on which artist made the song"
Doesn't that demonstrate that the actual business case of producers discovering new artists doesn't even factor into the model's case of discovering which new songs will actually be hits.
It seems like the former is much harder than the latter in this case.
- mrguyorama 7y agoKeep in mind that our results and findings, while making "sense" post-hoc, are predicated on our process and procedure being correct, which honestly, as complete newbies to the whole field, was roughly a coin flip.

- dwd 7y agoI think you will find is that the process of an artist being discovered is basically the same as getting into YC. It's about the artist and whether they have star quality and are saleable. There are plenty of song writers to write the actual songs. Classic case is someone like Sia Furler who has written a ton of hits for other artists. https://time.com/4209769/sia-best-songs-written-for-other-artists-ranked/ https://time.com/4209769/sia-best-songs-written-for-other-ar...
