1. A record contract is a legal binding document. An artiste can’t walk out of a contract because he feels like. There will b repercussions”
2. There is no perfect record label. It doesn’t exist. Record labels are made up of people, and mistakes will always be made”
3. A record label is a business. Irrespective of how talented you are, if your music isn’t selling or making profit, you will be kicked out.”
4. Don’t stop hustling. Some artistes become so relaxed when they get signed to a label. That’s the wrong approach.”
5. Labels have many artistes to work on with limited resources. It’s only artistes who show they are willing to go the extra mile dat shines”
6. Business is business. Don’t take anything personal. Leave emotions b4 u walk through the door. The record business is a cutthroat busines”
7. Nobody owes you anything. It doesn’t make sense to demand for a house and car when you haven’t brought a dime to the label.”
8. Only sign a record deal with an imprint that is on the same page with you artistically and creatively. Anything short of this, na Gbege!!”
