Ask Ms. Uduak: How do I Promote Myself as an Unsigned Artist?

Posted on November 15th, 2009 by Ms Uduak

Uduak“Good day Ms Uduak,

I know you must have heard and read these lines a lot but the truth must surely be spoken.

You are great, a rare gem. Your articles kill me and resurrect me. But you know what about you that marvels me, awes me and leaves me in a state of tearful hypnosism? Your spirit.

You answer questions and kind of guide people into their dreams, people you don’t really know. I think you have been an answer to so many. . .

I have a situation. I’m an upcoming artiste, I’ve written really great songs but I don’t know the next step to take. I could send my demo to labels but then there is the issue of labels not signing new acts as a result of piracy and the internet.

But do you really think that’s true here in Nigeria? Or do you think that with real tight songs which a lot of people has attested to its ability to sell, I could get signed?

Again if I decide to stay unsigned, how do I get my music out there in the market?

I know you might be a very busy lady but you could answer me, and that will be added to the list of the dreams you’ve helped mould. Thanks Ms Ladybrille.”

Zara – Mommi Mi

Posted on August 17th, 2009 by Mola OG

Brand New Joint from Alapomeji records first Lady. There is something about Zara’s voice; it just draws you in.

This track is nice all around; beat, lyrics, delivery and hook.

notjustOk Select – 10 (June ‘09)

Posted on July 20th, 2009 by Mola OG

I noticed that on the last notjustOk Select post someone felt some kind of way about the songs selected. So I will make this bold, notjustOk select is not a Top 10 list of any kind and there is no underlying reason why one song is listed before the other; there is no first or last.

notjustOk Select – 10 is a list of ten songs/posts that have made a major impact on the listeners/readers in a given month. Several factors come into determining how big of an impact a single post made in a given month, such as page views, record breaking amount of comments and constant mp3 request for the specific song. In addition to spotlighting the select 10s, we will provide a download link so that you can save the mp3s.

June was the month of the female rappers; Sasha came with her new single ‘Gidi Babe’, Kel blessed us with a new joint off her upcoming album followed by its video and Zara dropped the ‘Su Mo Bi’ track. Enjoy!

Video: Fab5 Performance Naija Djs Summer Jam

Posted on June 16th, 2009 by Mola OG

The FAB5 performance was full of energy; I was impressed seeing them perform LIVE!!! Shout out to the Naija Djs for putting together such a solid and well organized event.

Shouts to Ezzie for uploading…

Zara – Su Mo Bi (Premiere)

Posted on June 8th, 2009 by Mola OG

Brand New Single from Zara; HEAVY and guaranteed banger. This one tops the Flyest in my opinion, although it held the spot for most popular post on www.notjustok.com for almost four months straight.

With this track, I feel like Zara is making a statement that she is “Focused Men”. Her next move should be to enter Gidi and plan a take-over.

Listen and let me know what you think.

***UPDATE***

A big CONGRATULATIONS to Zara who is now signed with 9ice’s ALAPOMEJI ENTERTAINMENT. See Toni’s note confirming it.

Fab5 – Show YourSelf (Premiere)

Posted on May 29th, 2009 by Mola OG

Finally, it’s here. The song is solid, if you ask me and I must say that every single one of these ladies brought the heat. I feel like they all held it down.

What are your thoughts?

notjustOk Select – 10 (March ‘09)

Posted on April 5th, 2009 by Mola OG

Let me start by saying that this is not a Top 10 list of any kind and there is no underlying reason why one song is listed before the other; there is no first or last.

notjustOk Select – 10 is a list of ten songs/posts that have made a major impact on the listeners/readers in a given month.

In addition to spotlighting the select 10s, we will provide a download link so that you can save the mp3s.

Now, for the month of March we are going to do things a little different; we have compiled the ‘Select – 10′ from content that was posted between January and March.

Brand new track from Zara. This is the first single from her forthcoming album… Good effort, she raps playfully and keeps it feminine in her delivery.

Watch out for her album coming out soon. Let me know your thoughts.

Track was produced by Dognomite.
