Empawa Africa is not for the professionals who know everything about the music industry. Its for the emerging Artists starting out with nothing but their talent & desire to share their art with the world. Hopefully we can be part of a couple stories in one way or the other!

Let me break it down! advances are usually paid to an artist, songwriter, producer, against their future earnings! It can be on Live (against your live income ie concerts) , or Royalties ( $ from music sales ) or Publishing (publishing is a different topic on its own)
