The Roast
"You've got a Next.js boilerplate and a dream, but no actual app, no market research, and no clue why musicians would use *your* collaboration tool over Splice, BeatStars, or literally Discord. This is the digital equivalent of buying a pizza oven and calling yourself a restaurant."

đź’€ Why This Fails
- • Music collab apps are a graveyard—Splice, BeatStars, Soundtrap, and 50 others already own this space with network effects
- • You haven't built anything yet; you're showing me a README. That's not a side hustle, that's a to-do list
- • Musicians don't need another app—they need better music, better marketing, and better connections; an app is a solution to a problem they haven't admitted they have
âś… The Pivot
Instead of building for musicians, build a niche tool *for* music creators: a royalty split calculator + contract generator for collaboration disputes, or a Discord bot that auto-generates BPM-matched stems. Start by solving ONE specific pain point musicians complain about, not building a 'platform.'
