back to this tweet because it's relevant for everyone: media platforms are overly expensive. charging buzzing artistes the same rate as “Wizkid” isn't fair; you know they won't generate the same engagement and they can't afford it, so you’re not only ripping them off and you’re
“Women should be silent in churches”.
Paul wrote this to the Corinthian church and Timothy, who was in charge of the church in Ephesus.
Before their conversion to Christianity, these people worshipped the goddesses Aphrodite and Artemis…
never underrated anyone in the music industry even yourself, that a&r in your session can be your label head tomorrow, that songwriter can be the biggest artist tomorrow 🧑🎨
in the beginning of this year i was thinking of how old i’d be this and uncertainty of me achieving the life goals i set for myself at that age, i’m just grateful for surpassing every goal i set, Happy Birthday Tomiwa!🎈
this is a very ignorant tweet, the nigerian music industry is not fair to women industry from artistes to execs to djs to producers.
Any successful woman in this industry deserves commendation, not interrogation, especially on a day dedicated to celebrating their achievements.
Immediately a male artiste blows, he's looking for other people to put on that path and create a business.
From TuFace to Shallipoppi.
I cannot think of one female artiste that had even attempted to replicate this and be successful at it.
They need to do better.
everyone should cut Empawa some slack the label’s job is to turn him into a superstar & they succeeded so well. some Nigerian artists are/were signed to majors and don’t have half the success Joeboy had with Empawa.
if you’re an independent artiste and you have amazing music coming out in 4-6 weeks time. dm me now with a private soundcloud link!
*empasis on amazing music.
i’m honestly sorry for you if you’re on an artist’s team and you’re not learning any transferable skill, what if your artist no blow or he gives his life to christ stops music

funny thing about this purism p, is that they’ve always tried to sideline them Olamide because they didn’t rap predominantly in english, always putting this razz stereotype on them.
they forget HIPHOP culture is about the streets, and big guess who the streets recognize?
any distro that is collecting as much as 30% of royalties and not supporting artistes with marketing options or any placements is just point blank scamming artistes.
altè doesn’t necessarily translate to the music being good, don’t get me wrong there are amazing alte songs, there also mid alte songs and also horrible alte songs.
niggas be saying fireboy’s eli is mid forgetting the world doesn’t revolve around nigeria, eli is number one is gambia & uganda because you personally don’t enjoy a song doesn’t make it mid
uploading your music a few days to your release is the beginning of the end of your promo as an artiste, at the very least music should be uploaded 21 working days before release date.
that EP argument is a “chicken or egg which came first?” question, that’s why with every release i set my own realistic KPI & objectives (streams, brand awareness, engagement, chart positions) so you can’t tell me that my project is not successful because of your own metrics
i really hope
