From the bottom of my heart i say. bleep NOTJUSTOK.com

Guy promo your tracks on the streets, with dj's and radio. No be internet go make u blow. yeah a few people will hear u, but its not what u shud be worried about.

the notjustok.com team are not in touch with the streets. them dey try, but in the grand scheme of things, notjustok.com has no significant influence.

There are two kinds of musicians in Nigeria; those that are popular and those that get paid. most of these dudes will never see 1m per show. na free show thru out. alot of guys u rate highly, aint making nada. thats cuz they rely solely on ajebota channels of promo like notjustok.com

make good music and push it well on the streets, and watch the money come in. no beef for notjustok, i just hate bullshit.

Best Of Luck.

misstoyo:

@frijos, thanx, keep showin tha luv

You're welcome, anytime.

i have restrained myself from adding to this thread but the time is now, i reiterate Bleep NOTJUSTOK, they think they can determine whats going on in naija music from some apartment in America, Ovie and Mola are very affiliated to E.M.E (Banky Dub),Chocolate City(MI,Jagz,Ice),Storm records<Sinzu and Naeto c>,Mo-Hit,not to say they aint doing a Good job they are as in publicity wise, but the upcoming artistes deserve a shot too and i dont want to hear anything like the song is wack because some of the wackest Naija songs have heard online are on your site


well i understand they are all about the MONEY and not the Growth of the Art and that really nauseates me, i know Ovie and Mola Monitor this thread,so like i said before Zap notjustok

or notjustalright.com  lmao, consider it if someone creates notjustalright , it will make them sit up and stop shitting on nigerian poo.     honestly their work for notjustok  nor easy, especially ovie , he works harder than mola.

we knw they work harder, it's their job!

all d ppl doing good job works harder,  they re not their to play

they shldn't use the means to make ppl beg n beg dem b4 putting it on their webpage,  that gabbarge,  make he pain dem,  shebi dem sabi use mouth bad mouth other artist for their review,

abi no be same mi dey post notjustok for my fb,  for where,  u go see that one again,  never n ever,  still same notjustok i sent mail say i wan buy banky album aw can I get it since no paypal or pay any oda means? instead make him reply say sorry 4 d inconveniences. it wont be possible or any other mail. he no reply,  recently I got banky album on Itune

i sent mail to owner of sturvs once,  he mailed me back,  i was surprise. those re niz ppl,  I don dey knw dem 1 by 1 ,  and na me sef go critize dem,  me wey use my hand promote dem,  aint a fool

and some silly nigerian artists too do so. instead of dem to appreciate their fan n get more traffic,  they willl be doing yanga,  they re doing theirsef,  dey dont knw wat dey call market strategic poo duh!

Youth shld stop buying their album or go to their shows if dey can't show love to d fans,  dey must be insane,  abi no be we dey use our hard earn money buy am to put food on their table n we enjoy entertainment, #

The way dey treat fans is totally unacceptable - we re all human beings

Fans not only girls because that is wat I believe dey love to respond to and ignore d males dat purchase their album

Rubbish!

''Olusesi u dey dsigrace me
oti melo lo mu t'oti n beeeee"??

Ori E Wan Be mehn

am liking this Olusesi's personality sha, too funny and a very interesting character

Comment on the pics - i think it wulda been better if u were climbing up the ladder as opposed to sitting on it, as true hustler like u no ever take no for an answer, show ur fans that u are never satisfied and u are always aiming for the top


Gudluck wit all sha,

i have mails to prove all this Ofox im too mentally advanced to come and start Lying on a public site especially one that that has a lot of people to attack you like nairaland, i want Mola especially to refute my claims, den well see,

''Olusesi u dey dsigrace me

Ori E Wan Be mehn

lol, so u overstand the proverb?

this shelliroy guy is smart, taking a quick shot @ Olusesi on his own song. I wonder why Olusesi left it that way. Perhaps it's intentional. OLusesi is just so full of crazy stunts, well that's entertainment and we (viewers) are well entertained by these guys.

"Olusesi dey disgrace me/ oti me lo mu to ti bi/

what's up with Olusesi these days self?

@ Elrazur: In a market where it is hard to break out, you need to have your signature. Just like producers like Dre, Timba et al all have individual signature on their beat, as an artist you need to find yours. Michael Jackson had the "Heeeeeeee Heeeeeee", "chaaaamone", James Brown have the crazy shouts etc. You may need to find something similar or what makes you different from another naija artist. To find that, I think in my opinion you need to stay away from the Gimmicks of this cancer called auto-tune.

Try recording your vocals without no backing tracks, add a bit of Reverb on it and see if there is anything you like about it. Go further and do a ballad - i.e sing a nice slow song - without any backing tracks and try to work on where you feel are lacking. Then go ahead and do a short song, give it out and hear what people say. Depending on your voice type, you may ask your sound engineer or producer to enhance is a little bit. Do not add anything dramatic to it . If you do, it will make such song singing it live at a show very difficult.

To do all of the above, you need to be able to sing in the first place. If you can't sing, then I suppose you can hide behind an auto tune.

Also when singing, you may try and improve your range - i.e use different tones and "transpose" or simply put, in different keys. This is very lacking in most naija tracks, perhaps you can pull it off?

I don't know who you sound like when you are singing. It may be advisable to pick up Usher's first album and then compare it to the one he released later. You can learn a thing or two about voice range from that. [His first album did not contain much range, but he experimented with good vocal ranges in the subsequent albums and it worked for him]

Also study the work of MJ. MJ may be a tricky one though as you need to have that natural singing talent and superb vocal range he's got. lol.

PS
I am not an authority in anyway, I am just passionate and enjoy making music as a hobby, been doing so for years now.

Goodluck.

Thanks a bunch dude!
