Open letter/advice to ibadan entertainment industry |@itz_swaggboss

(1) Here in ibadan artistes don't support each other because psychologically they think others might blow (make it) before them which they don't want to happen even in their wildest dreams.....

That's a no no! If u support that artiste today he or she will never forget you and his success story! Take it or leave it

(2) Publicists, prs, bloggers, djs and oaps see themselves as competitors even when half of ibadan doesn't know them...

Just imagine, I went for a strictly by invitation event here in ibadan, while I was sipping my vodka I heard some well known ib artistes discussing, "ehn d guy just enter industry con dey move just like dat, me wey I dey since 4years sef I still dey like this" lol....funny right??? Am still laughing here too....

Ask yourself, "am I paying my dues??? Am I connecting with the right people? What is it am not doing right? Ask the bloggers “What kinds of songs get the most hits”. “How do I create hype for my song or get Eko Hotel to host my event? Stay focused my bro/sis nobody will be richer than GOD planned for em + nobody will be poorer than GOD also planned

(3) You don't Pally with bloggers
You see yourself? After all the yanga and the blasting that you do on Twitter, you will still come back and beg the bloggers to publish and promote your songs for free. Bloggers can make or kill your songs o. don’t try us. Oh! I didn’t mention that I am a blogger too...but note d truth in my words

(4) Mugu Master 101
You might be asking yourself “Wait a minute is this guy telling me to lick boots” Well Yes! If you must also know, lick the sole and laces of your boss’s boots along. The reason I tagged this as Mugu Master 101 is because, if you can’t act as a JJC in this industry, then trust me you are going nowhere!  When I say act as a mugu, I mean be humble and gentle, act like you know no one, you have nothing and your voice is “just there” be willing to put aside your ego and listen to what the big boss in ur team says.

Even if it takes you two to four years to complete the Mugu 101 course, do so. Trust me this makes for a good “Humble Beginning” story so that when you finally sing “Fly” as Tuface did to announce his successful graduation from Kennis Music, people would be drawn to you.  Wizkid, Dbanj and 9ice did it, so you also can do it.

(5) organisers of awards in ibadan are not straight forward! (THEY ARE SELF-CENTERED)

just imaging an award organiser casting votes for special nominees just to make them bag d award just to get their links and contacts??? For crying out loud you don't need that! If your award is well organised and worth it then you should be neutral!

(6) U pay a Producer to Record a Track, you pay people to mix and master ur song but When it comes to bloggers and site owners, U'll be like "Help upload my song i will make ur site popular " You be Wizkid or Davido??

This is a warning to all the un-serious artistes!!!Blogging/Online Promotion is a serious business and not a Charity foundation for artistes Na where person dey work e dey chop.. #MindU

(7) You have recorded thousands of tracks without a video, how you want people to know ur face and know what d person that put out the audio look like? da lord is ur strength fam!

(8) Some People say Bloggers Charge them this and that, “He is suppose to upload my song for free", "Stupid Blogger"...and all that. Well do you know REAL bloggers don't sleep more than 5hours? Else its a Multi-Tasker like Me "I don't Sleep At all"

bloggers even go through heavy stress to Compile and send BC too, spend hours to maintain site, Some of us pay more than $150 annually for host "dollar now is N305" Ooo.... and one artists go come from him Village and say "Upload my song for Free" - God is watching You ooo

Disclaimer: You shouldn’t really take these points seriously although it wouldn’t hurt you to make use of some of the points listed above. See you at the top of your entertainment career.
