Last week I took out time to outline few mistakes made by up and coming
independent artistes. I also dropped guidelines on the possible ways to
avoid being a victim of such career threatening mistakes...
This week I'll continue to elaborate and list out more mistakes made by up
and coming independent artistes. One of which in include
3. FANS PRESSURE
I met an artiste on Instagram within the week who was privately seeking for
my professional advice on his next move. He made mention that the move is
being countered by his fans. He went on to explain that he believes
dropping a new song would be more beneficial but his fans are asking for a
video to his previous track. He then asked for my advice, whether to please
his fans or not.
This got me asking him some series of questions as I know every single move
to be taken is predetermined by some factors like the level of the artiste,
how far the music in question (that the fans are requesting for a video)
went, etc. Then with the answer he gave me I offered my advice.
This is business, in business you'll definitely need to please your fans
but a times what is best is to surprise them. Be sure you're making the
right moves. Don't make moves basically because it'll please your fans.
Make moves only because it will help boost your career.
4. COLLEAGUE'S PRESSURE
Same is applicable to pressure from colleagues. Every artiste represents a
particular brand. A times I see a clique of friends making similar moves
because they often share same ideas and indirectly compete with each other.
This is totally wrong. You can't be sneezing because your colleague
sneezed. Everyone is on a different root. Sex tape, faking ones death, etc
might work for some artistes all because their brands accommodates such but
not for everyone.
Be sure you're making calculated moves. Don't ever make a move because a
neighbour made same move...
Part 3 comes up next week!
