Piecing together what I learned from that and Ant’s March 2020 interview above:

• He started making beats in 2016, at about 20 years of age.
• After getting out of the military, he decided to go a whole year (2019) creating beats and uploading to YouTube every day.
• He used YouTube and his social media to drive traffic to his BeatStars page, where people could buy his music.
• Posting the same style of beat consistently also helped build his audience.
• By about October 2019 he was making $2000 per month.
• Then he had a few beats go viral and in December he earned $15,000 from beat sales and another $6000 from YouTube ad revenue.

So he went from $0 to $20k/month in only a year 🤯
