Why Every Upcoming Artiste Must Have A Side Hustle If They Want To Blow In The Music Industry

Music business is a really lucrative one as it can help you amass wealth for yourself even beyond your imagination.
Especially in a country like Nigeria where the music industry is the largest in Africa and yielding millions of naira. Nevertheless, success in this music industry is left to how much you plan and put certain things in place.
Taking on music as a profession is a risk which you must be fully ready for any consequences it brings as you blowing as an artiste might take longer than expected and sooner than you think.
Here are starter packs for individuals planning to take on music:

1. Easy/Short Stage Name

For any individual wanting to make music a profession, while starting out, ensure you have a not too long stage name which people can’t remember.
Having a short and easy stage name will help different music listeners to put you in mind and even to trace your music.
There are more than a thousand musician emerging all over the world every year, your name when short and easy will help people identify you amongst all of them.

2. Stick To A Particular Genre Of Music

Staying true to a particular kind of music helps your career as an artiste.
This will help in defining you as an artiste, though there are times one needs to be creative in art by trying out various genres but this doesn’t mean going totally out of your lane.
No matter how the likes of M.I, Vector, Show Dem Camp (SDC), Poe, Boogey, Blaqbonez etc try to go commercial at some points, they still come back to RAP, their first love.

3. Catcy Hooks/Choruses

So as to get the attention of listeners, it is advisable that your tracks as nice and catchy hooks people can remember after a long while.
When your hooks are long, it makes the song boring and uneasy for your listeners to catch up with.

4. Nice Music Production

As an artiste, the music you put out in terms of quality is of much importance. This we can say in terms of sound, voicing, mixing/mastering and many more.
Artistes nowadays need to really pay attention to these deciding factors, it feels kind of grumpy when listening to a song not recorded or mixed well.

5. Release Projects

Another way you can increase your popularity is by releasing projects. It could be an EP (Extended Play) or an LP (Long Play).
This project in one way or the other will help people in getting to know more about you and how creative you are as they listen to different kinds of track from the same artiste.

6. Social Media

The media can’t be taken for granted at this age as it is one way where you get to sell your music faster.
As an artiste coming into the music business, ensure you have much relevance on social media platforms mainly (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram).
This is one huge means in which you get to connect to a lot of persons that can end up being your fans.

7. You Should Have Your Own Personal Website

It’s of much importance as an artiste to have a website of your own. Your website will end up saying a lot about you.
It should contain your previous releases, profile, collaborations, news and hints on yet to be released tracks. It helps in making your fans aware of what to expect from you and also to reach you.

8. Make Use Of Premium Music Platforms

There are lots of platforms where artistes can get their music to these days and be heard, so therefore, it is necessary for artistes to get signed on to these platforms so as to share their music with a larger music base.

Messi Accuses CONMEBOL Of Match Fixing And Corruption

Messi Accuses CONMEBOL Of Match Fixing And Corruption

Furious at having been sent off for just the second time in his career, Lionel Messi criticised CONMEBOL after Argentina’s 2-1 victory over Chile in the third-place play-off.
The Albiceleste captain did not take any part in the ceremony, after a Copa where he has hit the headlines more for his outbursts against organisers Brazil and CONMEBOL than his exploits on the pitch.

And when he finally addressed reporters from the stadium he launched a withering condemnation of the competition’s organisation in supposed favour of the hosts.
“There is no doubt, the whole thing is set up for Brazil,” he fired, before suggesting that he paid the price for his previous outburst against the refereeing of the semi final.
“I did not want to be part of this corruption, we shouldn’t have to be.
“I always tell the truth and I’m honest, that is what keeps me calm, if what I say has repercussions that is not my business.
“I think that what happened is because of what I said [against Brazil].
“What I said last time perhaps came back to haunt me. With a yellow card that was the end of it.”
Messi previously criticised the playing surfaces at the Copa America following Argentina’s last-eight victory over Venezuela, labelling the pitches “shameful” after a subdued performance.
But it was in the aftermath of Tuesday’s defeat that he really let loose, incensed by the failure of match official Roddy Zambrano to refer two penalty calls to VAR in Brazil’s 2-0 victory.
“They were not better than us. They found the net early and the second goal came from a penalty [to Aguero] they didn’t award,” Messi told reporters.
“They [the officials] had booked a lot of bullsh*t, but they didn’t even check the VAR, that’s incredible.
“That happened all over the game. At the first glance of contact, they ruled in their [Brazil’s] favour and this kind of bullsh*t distracted us from the game.”

Messi Finishes Copa America With Red Card After Furious Medel Clash

Lionel Messi’s Copa America campaign finished just over 45 minutes early on Saturday after the Argentina captain was sent off along with Chile’s Gary Medel in the third-place play-off.
Messi and Argentina came flying out of the blocks in Arena Corinthians, after tasting elimination in controversial circumstances at the hands of Brazil on Tuesday.

After just 12 minutes the Albiceleste went ahead, Sergio Aguero converting past Gabriel Arias in the Chile net after latching on to a brilliant quickly taken free-kick from the Barcelona wizard.
But both teams were soon to be reduced to 10 men as tensions in Sao Paulo boiled over.
A seemingly innocuous scuffle between Messi and notoriously bad-tempered Chile hardman ‘Pitbull’ Medel quickly escalated into a full-on brawl towards the end of the first half.
And while Leo certainly helped provoke his opponent by pushing and harrying him past his own goal-line, the Argentina captain was largely motionless when Medel came back throwing his shoulders and forehead repeatedly into his adversary’s person.

The best team will win the AFCON and we are up for it as we are training twice a day.” Meanwhile, 18-man squad of the Zimbabwe’s national team have arrived in Nigeria for Saturday’s international friendly game against the Super Eagles in Asaba.

UEFA Confirm Manchester City Could Face Champions League Ban For Financial Manipulation

UEFA have confirmed Manchester City could face a Champions League ban should allegations of financial manipulation be proved.

Both UEFA and the Premier League are investigating City after emails leaked by German publication Der Spiegel appeared to show £59.5million, reported as coming from sponsors Etihad airline was actually from owners Abu Dhabi United Group.

If proved the allegations would amount to a breach of Uefa’s financial fair play rules and, according to the European governing body’s head of independent Club Financial Control Body, Yves Leterme, could lead to the ‘heaviest punishment’ for the Premier League champions.

Speaking to Belgian outlet Sport and Strategy,Leterme said:-

“If it is true what has been written, there might be a serious problem. This can lead to the heaviest punishment: exclusion from the Uefa competitions.

“If the information is correct, this possibly goes against truthful reporting. The financial fair play rules are based on a system of declaration, three months after the clubs have closed their accounts, they have to deposit their figures.

“Then we do random checks on the truthfulness of those figures. The accounts are examined and approved internally and externally.”

New rules to be introduced to football ahead of next season

New football rule would be introduced to the game of football ahead of the coming season and the rules are already in test at the FIFA World Club Cup tournament in Abu Dhabi.
The tournament is often used to test new rules as to whether the rules can stand the test of time, there are little differences in this year’s competition in terms of officiation.
Video Assistant Referee (VAR) was introduced in the tournament two years back and now it is widely accepted across Europe and was even used at the World Cup in order to reduce human’s error in the game.
The rule test in this year’s competition is that opposition players are now allowed to intercept a goal kick which was not allowed in the time past.
As things stand, no player can touch the ball in the 18-yard box after a goalkeeper restarts play, but that is set to change.
Players will still have to be outside the area when the kick is taken, but are then free to move forward and intercept, bringing an end to one of football’s most bizarre rules.
Another rule that would help to prevent time wasting is this, once a player is substituted such a player does not need to walk halfway the pitch before leaving the pitch, such a player will have to leave the field from the point closer to him.
As for discipline, players who are sent off will miss their subsequent match, irrespective of the competition.
The new modifications in the football rules would be approved in March but they are experimented Abu Dhabi in the ongoing FIFA World C

lub Cup.
