What is a record Label?

A record label is a publishing company that manages such brands and trademarks, coordinates the production, manufacture, distribution, marketing, promotion, and enforcement of copyright for sound recordings and music videos; conducts talent scouting and development of new artists.

In a recent interview with DJ Spicee C.E.O Of Starshow Records, we learnt a few tips on how to get signed to a record label quickly and easily.



One thing you should note of course is that No record label will want to sign someone that has not developed a brand for himself that they can invest in.

According to Dj Spicee,

‘For you to get any record deal, you really must have worked on yourself. Like some of the Artistes Naija artist who get signed “Ola Dips, Lil Kesh and a host of others, they are people that have been doing their own thing.

You can’t walk up to me and say you are an artiste and you want a record deal with just two Facebook likes or 50 followers on Instagram, I won’t take you seriously. People are looking for content.

There are people with no talent with five thousand followers; that means they are actively engaging and doing something. It’s important that you have those followers because it shows me you have fans who love and appreciate your contents.

How was Justin Bieber found on Youtube? He has fans and he was marketing himself.

No record label will wake up one day and say, ‘You, it looks like there is hope for you, lets sign you.’ No, you have to be active. You must be doing things. Then based on these things, we can say, ‘Wow, you need some support and we can sign you.’

“Labels don’t change you, they add to what you already have.”

So here are a few ways to get signed.
