How do I enter the music business?

I have been dreaming of becoming professional singer ever since I can remember. This is my bigest desire and I know I have what it takes [talent, drive, "thick skin"] to make it in the industry. I already know about recording a demo but that's out of the question right now... Does anyone have any ideas for me to get started in the business?





Please and thanks.

i think its mostly where u live, for example take Ciara,she lives in Atlanta which is a hot music scene for hip hop and r %26amp;b, she cant sing, so if she lived anywhere else she would have never made it in the music industry.Atlanta has hook-ups.
