Apparently, not a lot of musicians know how to promote their own projects or even make the same available on all streaming portals that will see their studio projects available across the globe.
The veteran rapper who was recently featured on Wakadinali’s hit song dubbed ‘Avoid Those People’ says that artistes don’t know anything about royalties whatsoever reminding them that there’s more value in their penmanship than anything else in the industry.
