That's not a Nigeria flag. Nigeria flag is vertical while Ramos flag is horizontal.

This is Andalusia flag. A city of Seville is clamoring for independence just like what we have here in Nigeria. Get your fact right

Let Me talk to You Bro. I am a MedicalDoctor who did a Music 12 track album in my 400 Level Clinicals. I suffered like a thief and almost died. Gave my music to people and celebrities. For where. Without videos and airplay which cost money, no way and the video and airplay do not guarantee You succeas
Forget the Fake false glamour You see on TV, Music is very hard and expensive. A good track might cost You 60000 now to make beat, record, mix and master well.
Let's say You spend almost a million naira making a solid 12 track album. You now plan to make 5 videos and promote 5 singles from the album on radio, TV stations and online.
A good video will cost You 1.5 -2 million naira. No TV station will give poor quality videos sufficient airplay. That's 5 videos 10 million naira. You need to bribe/ sort music radio station DJs and on air personalities. You might need 2-3 million for this and You still have to budget money to settle the TV station people.

So budget 15 million naira. After that ,You have to pray and hope that people call You for shows of which Your 15 million naira budget/ investment is not a guarantee that People must call You for shows.
Naija economy is not stable now so most Companies are not endorsing Upcoming acts/ Paying upcoming acts for shows.

Thank God I didn't drop out of School. Many people might promise to sign You and invest in Your career but will disappoint You. I have been there.

My personal plan I am now a graduate and now working is to immigrate, Make money through my profession and later use part of My foreign earnings to invest in My music career if I am still interested. Jay Z, 2Chainz,Pharell are over or almost 40/and still making music.


Don't waste Your money doing and promoting One video and one single. The song might not get popular and the money gets wasted.

When KCEE left KcPresh, Kc released like 5 videos before LImpopo was the break out single that blew up. You see 5 videos before he got the Winner. What if He budgeted nd gambled and did only one video and song and the video and so gdid not pick, he would b broke and out of funds.


Music is Capital Intensive and High Risk. 50 CENTS SPENT 2 MILLION DOLLARS ON OLIVIA'S MUSIC CAREER AND DID NOT RECOVER/ RECOUP HIS INVESTMENT. Make money first then do Music as a side hustle. Davido, NaetoC, Dbanj are from Rich Families. Tuface and Wizkid got lucky of which millions of people won't like the Chance of one person winning the Lottery out of Millions of people.

So work and make money , when You make money...from a part of Your earnings You can afford to lose, invest in Your Music career
