For Hip-hop(Music) in the North to
reach it climax, there are certain
things we should let go of and
quite a number of things we
should enroll ourselves into.
Though we have numerous list
of artist,producer s,directors,blo
ggers operating both
professionally and for passion
sake yet our voice isn't heard in
the northern region talk more of
9ja at large
Below is a list of things we ought
to get rid of and those we should
adapt
(1) #Pride: even from biblical
point of view," pride comes
before a downfall". The fact that
you are been celebrated
or liked
by your fans(Hood guys) ,friends
and loved ones within your
metropolis doesn't make u a
super star, there is still a lot to
do.
Am not speaking to a specified
person but if we need to develop
musically we must do away with
pride. Imagine some artist don't
even relate with their fellow
artist simply because your name
is in every show. ur songs are
been played?? Too bad
#Remember: there's a different
between setting standard and
pride
(2) #WAITING TO BE SIGNED: for
real no one is signing for just
singing sake, we all are looking
forward to be heard or signed by
a renowned label, above all
earning from your singing
carrier is every artist's priority.
One thing is you have to keep
hustling and doing things your
way before u get signed, don't
be lazy or relaxed waiting to be
signed! Beside how do u get
signed when non of your music
speaks for you?? Keep on
hustling, surely your hustle
gonna pay someday
(3) #NOT PERFORMING IN SHOWS:
a lot of artist in jalingo don't like
going and performing in shows
which is not too good for an
upcoming act. Some claim they've
not been invited, I appreciate the
fact that you weren't invited but
sometimes you ought to invite
yourself. Definitely there must be
challenges in hustling
(4) #ONLINE PROMOTION: we've
tend to notice that we have good
producers within taraba but its
very rare to hear our songs been
played in other states why
Because we don't upload them
online! Haba there're free site
you can upload your songs like
Tindeck
Soundcloud
Datafilehost etc
Or why not play 5k to get your
songs on renowned blogs like
Jaguda
360nobs
Wapdam
Moreover we have blogs within
Taraba operated by tarabians
just 2k and get your songs on
blogs like
Rhapsodi affos blog
Naijalingo mp3 etc
Who knows were you promoter
is gonna find you
There more factors we need to
get rid of, but this is the few we
are gonna take for today. Hope
we've learn a little
Feel free to add yours
