JTE Gist: Top 10 Best Dressed Male Musician in Nigeria 2017 Must See
What makes a complete music artiste? I bet some of you would say it is the ability to sing or perform on stage but the truth is, there a lot more to the music artiste than putting out hit songs. There’s what we call imagery – this is how the artiste carries and projects him/herself so as to be received by the fans. The corporate people will call this branding. We live in a world where your musical talent or your voice isnt good enough to make you the people’s choice.
