What should I post on social media and how often should I post are two of the most frequent questions that Hypebot readers and my students at [Berklee](https://online.berklee.edu/courses/touring-101?ref=hypebot.com) ask.

So when **Cassie Petrey**, the CEO & co-founder of celebrity social media and artist management firm Crowd Surf gave a shout-out to **[Ariel Hyatt’](https://www.cyberprmusic.com/?ref=hypebot.com)**s classic “**[The Musicians Social Media Food Pyramid](https://www.musicthinktank.com/blog/the-musicians-social-media-food-pyramid.html?ref=hypebot.com)**” on this week’s **[Music Biz Weekly podcast](https://www.hypebot.com/whats-new-in-social-media-music-marketing/),** I knew that the post had to be this week’s Hypebot **Flashback Friday**.

Originally posted way back in 2010 on Hypebot’s sister blog [**MusicThinkTank**](https://www.musicthinktank.com/?ref=hypebot.com), the lessons here are still very valid today.

It happens to me all of the time when I teach artists social media.The face goes blank, the frustration begins to settle in and then the artist says it:

“I just don’t have anything interesting to say.”

REALLY?

I’m shocked by this every time. *You are an artist*; you do things we mere mortals are totally enamored by: you PLAY MUSIC, you write songs, you perform them in public!
