THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.
BILL BOARD WORLD MUSIC CHART IS DIFFERENT FROM BILLBOARD TOP 100.
THE TOP 100 CHART IS WEHRE THE CREME D LA CREME AT.
MATTER OF FACT, NO NIGERIAN ARTISTE HAS EVER MADE IT TO THE TOP 100 CHART.

This one is for singers and rappers too. It has the current beat pattern which is trending in Nigeria now. Songs with little resemblance are ycee omo alahaji, yungsix for example and gbedu wey de burst brain(oluwa ni)

This one is for singers and rappers. Its a dancehall beat that needs the artiste to put in a lot of energy so as to be able to murder the beat.

Make sure to download and leave a comment if you like the beat. Here is my contact (08138046017) incase you have special type of beat you would like me to make for you.

Remain Blessed. See You Again in the next three days.

Sorry my analysis is long, and it may not be that well structured, but if you can learn one or two things then I'll know it wasn't in vain.


Dude you had a great idea in your head, but you were 3 or 4 thoughts away from making it a hit song.

Every song is like an idea you pitch to a group of people; packaging and presentation is key! I have heard of songs without instrumentation becoming hits and instrumentation without lyrics getting heavily popular as well, so therefore, Tobe know thyself, and know thy own method of winning the crowd.

A song shouldn't just be all beats and lyrics right into your face, it should be something you create to seduce or entice your audience to want to listen to you and what you have to say.

why don't you flirt with the mind and emotions of your listeners, you don't seem to be doing that.

Overall the beat is average, your producer is still not merging with you (like ID cabassa did with 9ce in "gongo aso" ), I suggest you change him or have him understand you and relate with you better.

INTRO
Let me advice you on how to do an intro to your song, next time,
1. add some overall reverb to your song, something mild, not to much to give the impression that you recorded the song in a large hall, but enough to add some "atmosphere" to your song (reference "Ego" by Djinee), also have your producer add some reverb effect to your voice as well (together with some mild "chorus" effect to your voice [you don't have a great voice for singing, so like T.Pain you'll have to complement your voice a little], even better have your producer take two takes of your intro / chorus, have one dry (no effects attached to it) then add "chorus" effect to your voice then place them aside each other.

2. After the first 8 bars for the intro, you should have frozen most of the instruments while you began singing, now imagine your voice rich with a chorus effect and a background reverb covering the whole song, with your "carry last" echoing "carry last" each time you sang it, like akon used to do to his lyrics back in the day (this would have had the same effect as tickling someone; they'd want to listen more to the song), Reference the intro of "Holla at your boi" by whizkid to understand what I'm talking about.

Now as you were singing, with the reverb just add a simple instrument that was previously alien to the song but will now be introduced (this instrument must disappear or be swallowed by the other instruments as rudely as it was introduced, leaving the audience thinking (where did that thing go?) and while they are distracted by it (distractions and attractions are what makes a song a hit {if you think "Dorobucci" was all about lyrics think again}), alongside a chord instrument like a jazz organ playing a chord in the background, the removal of the kick, hook (which sounds too harsh for the song to me) and by all means the percussion would have made a listener focus more on your voice, your lyrics and the chorus which you have chosen to start with.

3. After the first 4 beats (remember 8 beats make a bar), you introduce another instrument (panned to one side of the ear/head) and one of the percussions (not all); this would have meant more food being served to the listener's expectations (reference the intro of "Orente" by Adekunle Gold), then at the climax of the 8 beats...

4. You add a bassline (which to me is missing in the entire song), I would have advised you make it an epileptic one like the kind don jazzy used in "Dorobucci", a baseline that changes but still maintains its overall foundation of key notes (rememeber in "Dorobucci" the bassline only becomes prominent after exactly 1 minute, then it stops and starts playing almost a different style each time (it married the kick and percussions so well, small wonder we all listened to it to death back then...), that would play for another 8 beats, then you bring in the drums.

By this time, you have gradually ushered your instruments and appealed to the souls of people, opening the door for them into your song...


CHORUS:

The chorus has a good message, albeit a mediocre one to me (self-opinion), and the way you sang it didn't appeal to me. There is no passion in your voice, no attitude (how many takes did you take on the chorus before your producer decided to work with this? He should have you take that chorus at least 20 times then listen to all of them and then use the one that best projects your feelings). Perhaps it is your voice or the instrumentation but after a while the chorus becomes a drag and begins to bore me.

Also your voice may need to be adjusted on a parametric equalizer very well, it is not sounding alive in the song at all.
Also add more emphasis and project while making your takes, I am not feeling any attitude in your lyrics.

A chorus should be rich, catchy and should be brief such that when you get to the verse or the bridge, people would want to skip through them just to hear the chorus again.

For the chorus as well:
1. someone else should have sung it, perhaps a lady with a contra-alto or tenor kind of voice. singing your own chorus and the verses may not cut it out for you (especially with the kinda producer you are using that projects no "soul" or "atmosphere" in his instrumentation.
2. have someone else adlib for you in future, let your voice be too pure to be heard doing everything at the same time.
3. The lady you featured (damilola) was perhaps the only thing beautiful about the song, get your producer or someone else to find a way to make your voice more pleasant to listeners since you don't have a good voice (you sound more like an entertainer like dbanj and not a singer or musician), but this shouldn't stop you from trying to get God to pick your call by singing.

Also change your producer (if you can), he's doing a poor job mastering your song, I played you song against most of the songs on my system and the difference is clear (Playing your song then "Woju" made it very obvious your producer may just be the one killing you for now).

I must commend you for keeping the song under 4 minutes this time, very powerful hit songs are usually under 4 minutes (it isn't what you say that makes a hit song, it is the synergy of your ideas, the instrumentation and your voice in perfect harmony that makes a hit).

In all the song is on average, the fact that it is trending on twitter means you are getting there...

Goodluck...and may Truth find you as you earnestly search for purpose.

I wouldn't actually say yes or No...

because Women are of different characters... and you and I know..

So bringing in the gender equality bill, can be quite dicey..

But in the end, according to the author of Animal farm,.... all Animals are equal, but some are more equal than others...wow

Even though I support the gender equality bill, but it wouldn't solve the present situations and discrimination that we ladies and women in general face... Trust Me!!

Thanks...

1) My Business Mentor ROBERT KAYOSAKI will tell you that we have classes of intelligence.

i) LEADERSHIP intelligence

ii) ACADEMIC INTELLIGENCE

iii) BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE.... time wouldn't permit me to go into full details, but where does ENGLISH as a measure of intelligence falls into?... Just a branch in the ACADEMIC SECTOR... it is never a benchmark for measuring the intelligence of anybody(I am tempted to make some blunders )

2) The President is only doing what is expected of him.... i have never seen any husband who sits at home all day and expect to see money and food in his house(except BILL GATES)...!
You build relationship with other countries by visiting them and discussing Bi-lateral trade with them.. people may ask, what is now the work of the minister of foreign affairs, i ask them,...
How would you feel if the child of your Neighbor comes to borrow money on behalf of his father? or comes to do business ??...
The day they answer that question, I will have another one for them....

3) Like stars on earth, every girl is Beautiful.. but i believe i have the beauty that comes beauty comes from within... Physical beauty will fail, and what is left are the GOOD QUALITIES YOU POSSES.

ii) INTELLIGENCE, Humility, Ability to put yourself in people's shoe(you feel what they feel and see what they see)

and also,... any woman who keeps her home till old age, I consider that woman....BEAUTIFUL

GOD BLESS NAIRALAND!

1) Ever since my father told me that we live in the world of Men.... i became so weak and depressed. A girl is considered a slut just because she has dated about 2 guys! But the same guys who actually broke her heart are being considered Guru for knowing how to play and trick females!.....THIS AIN'T RIGHT. But i believe sooner or later..., everything is going to change..! Maybe when we start living in the world of WOMEN!!

2) ... it sounds funny and callous for a lady to do such...! i am in a fix right now..
But the truth is... at first i will play nice and give them the best treat... but if it happens again, i will give them the "GUYS TREATMENT"... i will simply tell her that i want to use the ATM outside, and maybe few minutes after, i will be calling her from home on my sofa... (GUYS TREATMENT)

3 She should be selfish at times and maybe develop a strong heart... She shouldn't put too much people ahead of herself all the time.

4 With the constant issue concerning Rape being prevalent, i believe our girls are at risk of retaining their Virginity till Marriage..!

If the gateman doesn't rape her, School teacher will... if the school teacher fails, The street guys will do it... if the street guys fail, Neighbors will take over . I believe that right now, the girls have the highest probability of doing losing it.

God BLess NAIRALAND ....!

My Name is Dike Adaolisa

My moniker was actually coined from my late sisters' name. She was one of a kind... and after her demise, due to culture and religion that despises tattoos, i started using her name in most of my social media accounts. She was my chief support in life and her death created a huge vacuum that is still felt till this point of typing

My hobbies are.... Singing, Giving public speeches, attending business seminars, reading, writing and more of research

I am from Imo state... The eastern heartland!



I am 18years

I am single and a proud christian

Due to circumstances beyond my control, my highest certificate is the WASSCE... and this is as a result of the fact that i am solely focused on making sure that i create a business empire that will give me residual income before i enter the university world. I am presently on it, and before you say Jack Robinson, i will be in the university...


If i tell you, you wouldn't believe my bad habits...

I am a strong believer of my own dreams...
and so prepared to chase it head on without listening to what people say

I have a "bad nature" of putting people ahead of myself.. doesn't always end well, but at least, i always make them smile

God bless NAIRALAND and its MEMBERS!

deeplow:
Muno sings is signed to Paul, not Peter. That been said, Peter's success is down to social media and his sex appeal. I don't think he can make good music on his own, and it is the music that sustains you in the long run.

With the pace the careers of both artistes that Paul signed have moved, one can tell that they probably won't rake in the revenue for him. Muno sings already has 2 singles, none has been popular. The Lady's single doesn't seem like one that would blow.

Bottom line is, both Peter and Paul would eventually have to come to terms with the fact that they need each other to thrive. Peter's sexiness, Paul's genius, that's what makes Psquare.
