Staying in the music industry as an upcoming artist is one
of the most challenging but interesting spot to experience, because you have
the opportunity to work on yourself and your music career. One thing I believe
is that, for you to make wave in the Nigeria music industry, you have to have a
good video and a good message.
Having a good video put your song on major music
channels and people got to watch it before even trying to know what the lyrics
is talking about which by that time you have already make a name and some
section of the country would have noticed you and that’s where you start
working more harder.
Relying only on your audio songs is a 50/50 chance of getting the attention you want as an upcoming artist, not everyone has the time to listen to your song. Not every radio stations have the time to play your song on their request show when they have thousand of trending songs to play to their listener and yours is not important unless you promote it.

So, the best method to catch their attention is to saved up and put all your energy on your music video with a good message just like “Rich n Famous” by Praiz.
You may have the greatest song but as long as you are an upcoming artist who is trying to make a name for him or herself, it could take a long time before you can break into the scene. Many upcoming artists have tries to fake up stories just to get the right attentions, some has done terrible things like faking their death but they never get what they wanted and they are still in there underground position during the time of publishing this article.
During your journey to the hall of fame, it’s not necessarily
mean you should work with the best producer just to get a hit song, must artist
have one of the best producer and manager in their disposal but can’t still
make a reasonable song so it doesn’t matter who is handling your music career,
when you can’t sing you can’t sing, and you can’t give what you don’t have.
Some artists drop from top to underground because they lack the ability to maintain the top spot, some are just being carried away with the flow and they end up in an unknown destination.

Try to work with your fellow upcoming artist to discover
more of yourself; I would even advise you to focus your energy on working with
different people because it will help you in the long run. It makes you more
popular and it makes the song to go far and wide with the help of the artists
you featured in the songs.
It makes you more versatile and focus because you are been knew by the fans of the artist you feature, when searching the songs on the internet, people could use the artist name you feature to locate you and that’s a very good avenue to promote yourself as an upcoming artist. Never depend on freestyle to any song you are trying to make, you can only use it to get the right tune, energy, rap pattern or vocal choice but at the end, find your time to use it to write your song and you will discovered how amazing you are.
Most upcoming artist doesn’t like writing their song because they find it stressful or unprofessional, but the truth is it’s the best pattern to start with as an upcoming artist. Freestyle should be a way to top your game by being a fast thinker in writing lyrics and should not be use as your primary means of songwriting as an upcoming artist.

Try to work with bloggers to help put your story to the web
for easy access by your fans or people who are trying to know who you are. Try
to keep a constant dominance on your social media platform to engage with
people and try to release new song every 2 to 3 months to be relevant in the
music scene.
You may never know the kind of song that will bring you to the limelight, most time the song you expected to make you famous will not be the one and the one you never thought will be the one people will like and dying to listen too.

Don’t be intimidated with other artist, when you are good
you will know you are good, people round you will keep telling you are good,
but don’t let it get to your head, don’t let it makes you feel relax and then you
try to feel superior when you never blow.
Work hard but not too hard, watch more of your role model and try to get their message and reason from their own perspective. These simple steps can put you to the right track and also try to work with any song that relate to your genre. Being versatile is the master key as an upcoming artist because you may get the opportunity to work with different artist with different genre of music and that could be the beginning of your music career.
