This afternoon I sat down and finally added up everything since 2013.
It started with a simple SoundCloud upload from my little studio in Dewsbury Moor.

▶️ YouTube @MusicalArtizan: 4.59k subscribers • 202 videos • 401K views

🐦 X @DavidNSlater: 3,112 followers • ISSA Gold Active Member
Total: 1,472,154
And that's before Mixcloud, Facebook, Spotify (as David Nicholas Slater / Daretobelieve / Musical Artizan), and ElasticStage vinyl.
Awards along the way:
_ Yorkshire Prestige Awards 2024 WINNER
_ ISSA Gold Active Member
_ Number One Music Artist Pro
_ Nominated — Student Side Hustle Awards (£2500 + mentor scheme — voting open now!)
I've also just updated all my headers to match. New YouTube banner, new X header and profile, new SoundCloud banner — all dark navy + gold with the 1.47M on them. If they look clean today, that's why.
My SoundCloud banner now respects SoundCloud's overlay — left side blank so my avatar doesn't cover the numbers. Little details matter.
My two Kingdom Poetry books are now both in paperback on Amazon — Vol 1 & Vol 2. Links on musicalartizan.com
Thank you. From Dewsbury, UK, with a home studio and 13 years of stubbornness.
