𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Recently, I attended the Summerfest music festival in Milwaukee. When I was wandering around to 10 plus different stages, I ended up at a stage with an artist I'd never heard of- one of my favorite things about music festivals. Halfway through his set, he asked his band to leave the stage. An odd move for a live show. He explained to the crowd that he had two brand new songs that he had just completed- so new that the band hadn't learned the songs yet. The artist had an audio recording of a house band playing both songs, and proceeded to essentially sing karaoke to his own songs on an empty stage at a live music festival. Was this an odd move or an incredibly brave move? Many times in life, we wait for our work product to be perfect before launching it out to the world. But if we're brave enough to be vulnerable, share where the item is and why, test it and get feedback, it can ultimately land in a better place. My favorite part of the show was after he finished playing both songs and had the audience vote for which should be his next single. I currently have many projects 'in the works' and I'll let this experience serve as a reminder that sometimes it's okay to take a leap of faith and launch things into the world before I feel fully ready. #learning #progress #perfectionism #experimentation

I've noticed a common issue on social media where some artists express frustration that DJs don't play their music, while DJs, in turn, stress about artists who fail to provide DJ Packs for their singles. In response to this, I've created a document that can be quite helpful. This document outlines the process of preparing a DJ Pack before releasing new music. My main goal is to improve the working relationship between artists and DJs, as I believe it's crucial for promoting African music on a global scale.

If you're pursuing a music career, it's crucial you know the answers to these 3 questions: What is the difference between music marketing and promotion? Why are they important? How do I use them to build a successful music career? Music marketing is about creating a brand and connecting with your audience. It involves long-term strategies to build your image and fanbase. Marketing nurtures your relationship with fans. Music promotion, on the other hand, is about pushing your music to as many people as possible. It's more short-term and focuses on getting immediate attention and having fans take immediate action. Both are crucial. Marketing makes fans care about you and your music, while promotion tells fans what they need to do to support you. Understanding and balancing both will start you down the path to a successful music career.

"Music Industry Insights: Originality vs. Sampling As a music enthusiast, I've noticed a striking difference between two Nigerian music legends: 2Baba and P-Square. While both have had immense success, their approaches to music creation differ significantly. 2Baba's unique sound and authentic style have earned him a reputation as a true original. With a career spanning over two decades, he's consistently produced hits that showcase his creative genius. On the other hand, P-Square's reliance on sampling raises questions about originality. While sampling can be a legitimate creative choice, excessive use can detract from an artist's credibility. Let's discuss the importance of originality in music and how it impacts an artist's legacy.
