@GodwinTom The music has to be good. Full stop. But after that, the business has to be just as deliberate.

All this talk about "I don drop song tire..." abeg if the song no good, advise no dey for you other than, you may be very useful to the industry in other ways. It starts with the music. As long as the music is good, the artist will attract audience. The audience will bring the money. The money will feed the artist and the business and the cycle continues. But there is also no guarantee. Nonetheless, it requires a lot of effort and consistency from you. And no be jab... look at me... I am also a failed artist! 🤷🏾‍♂️

I can understand, because selling music as an independent artist is really crazy, especially when you are your own A&R, Manager, Video Editor, Executive Producer, etc, + investors don't believe in art, just repetitive sounds so they can recoup. Please, I need your mentorship...
Godwin Tom@GodwinTom

Sometimes dope only means you get to teach people because you get it... creating and selling music takes a lot more. I think I am in the best place I could be. I understand what it is like to be in the business. The two must align at some point. I can talk to both sides

You see people creating content about the music business like they’ve mastered it — sounding intelligent, speaking perfect English, breaking things down confidently. But most of the time, they’re just commenting on a game they’ve never actually played. Give them a role at a label, hand them a real budget, and suddenly all that “expertise” disappears. The music business is not a joke. Respect the labels and executives making things happen — they sacrifice a lot and work tirelessly behind the scenes to keep the system running. #Musicindustry #militant

@GodwinTom A lot of people have messed the whole scene up for those who genuinely need the aid and it’s sad that’s just the story of Nigeria. I don’t mind sharing you a private link to my EP while I still work on it, I bet it would worth your while.

@RealKiingLu Lol many times... sometimes its the artists. Other times it's the execs stealing and putting it on the artists head. Either, funds don go!

@GodwinTom @bizzleosikoya @OfficialWaje @Yung6ix I remember coming into the office that week in 2016 and Peedi called me and handed me cartons of Iskaba/ballers CD’s and said these needs to “reach the streets” and I was like “bet”. I remember we marketed it as a Black Friday drop that November. Fun times🙏

My brother! Them think say i dey lie when I tell them. @OfficialWaje's "I Wish" was a leak. We promote shege for the single we released and nothing much happened. I wish was leaked and boom. @Yung6ix was planning to drop a single with Korede Bello... we must have done like 20 artworks. Marketing was ready. "No favours" that he dropped to water the ground was moving. "Loving You" didnt do what we hoped. @WANDECOAL dropped "Ballers" and "Iskaba" same day. Shout out @PeediPicasso and team. We even shot "Ballers" video. We all know about Iskaba. Ballers still a jam though. The work of the artist is to make and put out music. Build your catalogue. Always put your best foot forward musically and with releases instead of trying to make a hit song. And when a song "blows", that song will carry new audiences and listeners to your existing work. Thats how you build your community! I don talk this thing tire but artist think say I dey lie for them.

As an artiste, just keep dropping music, you will never know which song will be the next big song tha will change your life.

No one ever has what they need to start and if you dont start, how do you grow??? No child suddenly starts running... belle time to strengthen the arm, crawling, walking and then running. These are all stages in the process. As an artist, you have a journey. You cant say no one is looking at you when you dont even move. Its unfair to your future! You want to just drop music and be dope? Haba

@GodwinTom @OfficialWaje @Yung6ix Sometimes it’s not about looking for a hit, my best foot might not be strong yet. As an independent artist at times we have limited resources to even do the basics to make the song presentable.I have a shit tons of demos, n they don’t sound ‘public listening’ worthy. Make sense?

Unfortunately mental health care in Lagos is critically under-resourced, and that needs to change. If you or someone you know is struggling here are some places to start: Lagos Mind Tranquil & Quest Happy family hospital Hamboi mindCare First health specialist clinic 7 & 8 specialist hospital Lagos Love.
