1. RECORD A STANDARD SONG|

today in Nigeria the only way a record label can find you is if you have a standard music, sometimes it happens that if you have good music you don't need promotion to get connected cause no record label want a whack artist that can't generate money for the company so the greatest challenge in music is when you want to voice your first ever recorded song make sure you are working with a standard studio and a well trained producer cause some studio contribute in killing your career by not giving you what match your music style so the best way to conquer that is to walk up to a standard studio around you and record a standard song:

2. GET A SOCIAL MEDIA HANDLE|

I hope you know that in the industry today the best way to connect to your favorite celebrity Record labels and get connected to them is through social media and apart from that social media is the number no.1 easy place to spread your download links, make people search for you and fined you also make celebrity find you using the #tag that is if your music is trending for people to see like click and download so that why you must get a social media handle such as. 1.

5. SHOWS AND CONCERTS
