I saw this tweet by Lady Donli and I felt it 💔
It's a real tragedy when an artist gets to this point. It's something I've tried to address on my podcast. You can listen here:

The thing is...

Art is a powerful commodity. But an artist should never behave like a commodity. A lot of artists get infected with this mindset. Then the business gets toxic and they lose their passion. I done know the details of Donli's situation. Just speaking generally.

Everybody and their mother is starting a podcast these days and I'm here for it. Here's the most important thing to keep in mind if you're going to enter the podcasting space:

it's not enough to simply have something to say. That's not enough for anybody to make the effort to listen to you. You're going to need a unique concept, a niche topic, and a well thought out format if you're going to make waves and be successful.

A friend who purchased VVIP tickets worth 100k gave some more details about the Burna Boy concert:

No opening act.
Poor sound.
Mic wasn't working.
Hypeman was stoned with bottles and he left.
6-9 hours standing, waiting, no drinks no water. Nothing... No traffic control
VVIP ticket all you get is a chair. No apology.
People who bought tables were out somewhere they couldn't see the stage.
Despite all of this, when he came out people started clapping
He gave no apology. Showed no respect for the audience

2023 is upon us...

If you need a reasonable goal to aim at in 2023, might I suggest this:

DON'T JUST LEAVE YOUR COMFORT ZONE.
EXPAND IT.

Hear me out.... For the longest time, we were told to leave our comfort zones because nothing ever grows there. But merely leaving your comfort zone implies you get to return to your old ways. If growth is the goal, then a more permanent approach to the comfort zone is advisable.
