Easter Monday Banter: Upcoming for 5 years???


Just banter, but recent events on my TL made me think about how some people actually make great music and are not getting that recognition in the industry.
This selection is based on the performances they book (opening act) and the title they give them- Upcoming artist.
I think it just gets to a point where it shouldn't be so, and it has a lot to do with the record label you are with and how much they are willingly to invest in you. Skales is someone who was upcoming for a while, but once he switched labels he dropped his album and he's now Skales the artist not the upcoming one.

Based on TL banter, I present some of my Upcoming and not coming up so quick artist;

1. Dammy Krane 
'Dammy Krane for the girls oh"  since 2011 and he is still upcoming. He also put an album out and its not doing so great. Well he said some people WIZKID  are stealing his content so maybe that's why.


2. BOJ 
My lord!! I love Boj's voice and there is something melo about the music he does. But I heard of DRB since like high school and now I'm doing NYSC. I feel like he needs a better platform because he makes good music.


3. Ajebutter22 
Super cool dude, he had two major jams and I personally love Omo pastor, but the way things look, Kiss Daniel and Lil Kesh have  more presence in the industry. I think consistency is key. He makes really good music we just need more of it.


Worthy of mention, Karat Kid,Shaydee and Ozzy B, wassup guys?

I Come To You As A Woman

If I got a dollar for everytime someone has come to me as a woman, I'll have 3 dollars. For those of you who don't know what that means I'll explain. So," Coming to you as a woman " is a term used when "another woman" who is either having an affair with your man OR  you are having an affair with her man, calls you out. The process usually starts with snooping around and finding out who you are and reaching out to you. Here are some reasons why some ladies might come to you as a woman: They are getting cheated on with you - that gotta hurt. They are currently "dining" with your partner and can't let you be happy in peace. You both have the same "d*ck appointment". And this is how it usually starts - Hi *inserts name here*, I want to talk to you about Ted. I come to you as a woman who just found out she got played by a man she loves ......BLAH BLAH BLAH.  Your first reply should be to block her and stay awa...

Memoirs of A 21 Year Old Virgin: Visit you at home, Why?

 If you missed my memoirs last week check here .    And please don’t start a lecture of don’t visit boys when you don’t want to do anything with them. At some point I almost lost my virginity, not exactly willingly. First I must Thank God for that day and second I must tell you the story. Me I was okay with visiting boys; at home and even in their hostels. Well it took one day and I lost every bit of trust in going to a guy’s house. I’ll be very dramatic and detailed, one faithful day I paid a friend a visit a "supposed crush"; we’ll call him “Douche” for the sake of this story. Somehow we were kissing then he asked 'Are you a Virgin'.  My countenance changed immediately, so he wants sex, first time here oh! And I hate answering such question but I had to, so I said yes... Mr. Douche looked at his wristwatch and said by this time of the year, you must be joking in his words “pick one remove your top or your jeans with no argument” I pulled my ...
