11 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW AS AN UPCOMING MUSICIAN

So many Upcoming Musicians today are faced with the problem of how to gain recognition by the mass but seem to forget that there are necessary things to consider while hustling.

We are going to look at those things which are supposed to be considered as an upcoming musician and we will be setting examples for you to know that it has actually worked for others.

1. Know Your Music
Most Upcoming Musician are always confused when doing music, you find out that their music actually has no rhythm because the have no solid knowledge about the genre they choose to specialize on. If you know your music then you should be capable of dropping hit tracks at ease.

2. Choose Your Market
Music is a business and whenever you are about to go into it, you choose your market (audience), have in mind the kind of people that will be listening to your music... if it is favourable you stick to it if it not you try to be spontaneous so u can win the heart of your audience.
3. Quality Of The Music
When recording your music make sure the producer you choose gives you the best because if the production is poor just have it in mind that as you leave the studio that is the end of that track.

4. Who You Feature In your Songs
You don't just feature your fellow artist because you know them, you feature them because u know they are good and with that your music is guaranteed to make wave in your locale.

5. Set A Target and Go For It
If you are a musician without aim just know you are supposed to venture in apprenticeship. Have a target and seek measures to bring them into play.

6. Seek Advice From Those That are Into The Business And Doing Well.
What kill our upcoming musician is excess pride and ego, like they say "pride goes before a downfall", so be humble to those in the business already.
They will surely tell you what you want to hear and even help you not make the same mistake they did while they were upcoming. Have in mind that even though you become successful, still keep that humility intact because nobody know it all.

7. Connect With People To Help Spread Your Music
In this section all you need build your network. When I say network, I mean people you know that will be useful to you and with them you can gain audience. Also getting familiar with your social network (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat... etc) to help you find people online that are into the same business and also online marketers to help you.

8. Patience:
Having patience seals it all because there are people who have been grinding for years and are not there yet but believing in their abilities for a breakthrough in the industry. You just need to wait for results and not rush over things but rather go slow and steadily or fast and consistent.

9. Being Unique & Consistent:
Do not do a similar music as the next person but rather bring something new and be innovative by combining what is there already to make something better. If you follow a particular trend without having your own that trend will surely fade and it will be left for you to change the game or go back to bases.
Be consistent too in your music don't give up just keep giving it to them because if you take a good look @ the industry, people that remains in the industry are consistent with the likes of Olamide, Chris Brown, Don Jazzy, Davido, Nicki Minaj etc.

10. Pay For Online Ads:
This part actually helps a lot because I've actually come across music adverts of unknown artiste which automatically add them to the trending list and think about your music trending on social networks also the number of persons seeing your good work

11. Believe:
Trust your abilities believe in your talent, when u don't think u can make it, it will only take the intervention to God for you to make it. Be determined don't let people confuse you just stick to your game and believe in it.
