In an Insider’s Look: Amro Shihadah Predicts Music Will Drive Blockchain Into the Future

Published

The future of Non-Fungible Tokens or NFTs in this economic downturn is not one that we can see, with profile pictures and generative art. It will be one that we can hear. Since he first learned about the underlying technologies powering NFT blockchain technology, he always stated that Music will be the catalyst that proves to the world that it is much more than a niche or a bubble.

Music and NFTs will provide unprecedented ways for artists, fans and experiences to be revived. The days of waiting for your favorite record, CD, or concert are now at every fan and artist’s fingertips. This is greatly due to the adoption of blockchain technologies by artists in the Web 3.0 space. 

To highlight he provided a few reasons that support to this claim:

  1.  Music NFTs will be the contributing factor to connecting fans with their favorite artists both musical and album art (a thing of the past) while connecting musicians, artists and technology together in ways that never before existed.
  2. Protecting artists, in that gone are the days of 360 deals where artists would be exploited by labels to earn as much as possible while under the most favorable terms for the label. Smart contracts can eliminate that and present artists with an opportunity to not only own their masters but determine how they are distributed and how the revenues from the sales are shared with the fan base creating the most intimate experience for any fan around the world.
  3. The first use-case brings us outside of the Web 3.0 ecosystem. With solutions such as templatized smart contracts such as the Ethereum based ERC 721 and ERC 1155, artists can customize their distributions; by song, by album, by concert, by tour and allow their fans to not only buy their music in NFT and digital streaming format but also share in the success of that same art. This is something that has never been done before and truly exemplifies the core philosophical giving that define the ecosystem,

In short, for the first time it is now in the control of the musician, not the industry, with labels moving as slow as molasses. In doing so the community forward approach has shown how much passion is reciprocated by artists to their fans and not just in tours, autographs, and shoutouts. But in actually delivering a share of the revenue from the fan-supported art that is produced by each musician, across genres and socio-economic situations. Lowering the price, and barrier to entry, and bringing new experiential frameworks to a broken system.

The outlook is bright for Web 3.0 and as Spotify brings NFTs to beta in sales associated with artist stream this only further supports the case that music will bring adoption across industries with the saying holding true. Adapt or die.

Amro Shihadah is a Web 3, AI, Cloud, and Entrepreneurship Subject matter expert, and he does not hold any positions in music NFTs and provides this insight to expand the perspectives of those yet to explore the web 3 space.

James Whitaker Jr, better known as “Bearzy” has a story that should be shared to youth worldwide. This young entrepreneur comes from Philadelphia, PA and has reached several people across the U.S. In an interview James had stated:

“My journey from a college student to an entrepreneur has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride filled with challenges, setbacks, and ultimately, triumphs. It all started when I attended Temple University with dreams of embarking on a traditional career path. However, life had other plans for me, and I faced obstacles that forced me to reevaluate my goals.

Instead of giving up, I decided to take a leap of faith and start my own business in the construction and home improvement industry. Building a team, navigating the complexities of entrepreneurship, and learning how to structure a successful company were all part of the journey. These experiences not only taught me valuable lessons but also ignited a passion for creation and innovation within me.

As time went on, I realized that my true calling lay in content creation. Drawing upon the skills and knowledge I acquired as an entrepreneur, I pivoted towards this new direction. The transition was challenging, but with unwavering determination and a commitment to following my heart, I was able to establish myself as a content creator.

My journey is a testament to the power of adaptability, courage, and staying true to one’s passions. By embracing change and fearlessly pursuing my dreams, I was able to carve out a fulfilling career that aligns with my true purpose. I hope my story serves as inspiration for others to take risks, follow their aspirations, and never shy away from exploring new opportunities.

With perseverance and a willingness to learn, anything is possible. Let us all continue to chase our passions, create lives that bring us joy, and never lose sight of the incredible potential within us.”

Art & Autism

1. My son Richard has been my inspiration to develop my idea. Despite being diagnosed with Autism at age three, Richard has shown incredible resilience and strength. Every day, he strives to better himself. I am inspired by the impact he has had on my life and his own remarkable accomplishments.

2. Since starting this nonprofit organization, my priorities have undergone significant changes, particularly in decision-making. I have come to understand that consistency and order are crucial for a nonprofit to thrive. Without these essential attributes, the organization could face numerous challenges.

3. When launching any business, there are always opportunities for improvement. Starting from scratch provides valuable learning experiences that foster business growth. Embracing failures and learning from mistakes are integral parts of this journey, propelling us forward.

4. I chose to register this company as a nonprofit organization because it enables me to help children embrace art as a hobby. Witnessing children communicate and thrive in a joyful environment gives me a sense of fulfillment and reassurance that I am making a productive difference.

5. Overcoming the fear of failure was the most significant challenge I had to face. I constantly reminded myself that I was capable of success. Self-belief is the foundation for gaining the confidence needed to build a successful business.

6. What sets Leo Lion Club Foundation, Inc. apart is its unique approach. We raise awareness about Autism through art and provide support for today’s youth. The concept of incorporating painting as a means of expression resonates with children of all ages, while parents appreciate its value in the Brooklyn communities we serve.

7. My advice would be to remain dedicated to your mission and always appreciate those who support and contribute to your business’s growth. Parents who join you on this journey and the children who bring joy to your establishment deserve your gratitude. Additionally, practicing courtesy and effective time management can greatly assist you.

8. Success is determined by the level of effort you are willing to invest in taking your business to the next level. What you receive from your business is proportional to what you put into it. This dedicated effort can lead to great results, such as success, growth, and financial gain.

9. The most enjoyable aspect of starting my company has been the overwhelming positive response from everyone, especially on social media platforms. The recognition and appreciation for the Leo Lion Club Foundation, Inc. reaffirm the honor I feel in serving children with autism and the communities we engage with.
