"Get a Degree!" - Female Artist, Tipsy "Yewande" Enupo Advises Musicians Not To Rely On Music

Hopefully this can motivate someone .

I started music couple of years back after being a dancer .. I loved music .. still do .. I hoped to blow , as time went on , I lost hope in that blow thing but one thing was for sure, that I wasn’t getting any younger . I know a lot of artistes feel like this music Na do or die but pls let me advice u, get a degree, have a side hustle so that when that music doesn’t pay on time u won’t be depressed as u have hoped on it as ur only source of income . Until this talent and passion starts to pay you, do something on the side that gives u money. A lot of times in the past , I would look at certain peoples page and think sigh why am I unlucky in life ? Why can’t I just blow , but when I got a job, my mindset changed . A lot of people blow without money in their account. Do u realise your music can be popular and u won’t have anything in ur account ? Even when you blow , this blow don’t last forever . Also, when you make money, U can invest it in ur music without waiting for a label or sponsors . Shout out to my mother that pushed the hell out of me to get a job . Taink
