In the fast-paced world of music, artists are constantly under pressure to release new content, neglecting the offcuts and rough drafts that can be just as valuable in building their musical brand. However, I'm here to tell you that feasting on the offcuts and investing in the future of your musical brand is crucial for long-term success.

One of the key reasons why creating archives of your musical works, whether they are rough or polished, is so important is the potential for growth and development. By keeping track of all your ideas, demos, and unfinished songs, you are essentially creating a treasure trove of inspiration that can be revisited and reworked at any time. Who knows, that one riff or melody that didn't make the final cut of your last album could be the foundation for your next big hit.

Registering your musical works with organizations like SAMRO (South African Music Rights Organization) is another crucial step in protecting your intellectual property and ensuring that you receive the royalties you deserve. By taking the time to properly register your songs, you are investing in your future as an artist and setting yourself up for financial stability in the long run.

Consistently creating new works, whether they are fully fleshed out tracks or just snippets of ideas, is also essential for staying relevnt in the ever-evolving music industry. By maintaining a steady stream of creative output, you are keeping your audience engaged and showing them that you are a versatile and dynamic artist who is always pushing boundaries.

Most importantly, songs that might not make the final cut of a mixtape, album, or EP should not be discarded or forgotten. Instead, think of them as investments in your musical brand. These offcuts can be repurposed for future projects, used as bonus tracks for special releases, or even licensed for use in other media like films, commercials, or video games. In tough times, like the recent COVID-19 pandemic that has severely impacted the live music industry, having a backlog of unreleased works can be a lifesaver. It provides you with a steady stream of content to share with your fans, keeping them engaged and connected to your music even when you can't perform live.

To close this off I just want to say that the importance of unreleased works, feasting on the offcuts, and investing in the future of your musical brand cannot be overstated. By creating archives of your musical works, registering with organizations like SAMRO, constantly creating new works, and seeing offcuts as valuable investments, you are setting yourself up for long-term success and sustainability in the music industry. So, don't underestimate the power of your rough drafts and unfinished songs - they could be the source ideas or even a source of revenue in tough times.

S/O to Dondald for embodying the reality which is life. Being an entertainer is hard and requires a certain science to create financial stability because it’s expensive too.

The reality is that if there isn’t a label backing you(which in itself can be costly) or a strong financial background, you already at a disadvantage.
It takes a lot of perseverance and dedication to become an overnight success.

We say big up’s for picking up your cross man, everybody on earth is just trying to get by, for that we commend not condemn you brother.

South Africa doesn’t have a talent or artist problem, there’s plenty of that. What we have in actual fact is a support problem, fans and content consumers are letting down the artist’s of today way more than ever before.
Question to everybody reading this:
How many of you stream your favorite artists?
How many of you actually attend the events that your favorite local or national artists perform at?
There are so many more questions that I could ask you to prove my point, support is lacking and artist can’t put their lives on hold to please them.🙏

That is if this picture is genuine.

Learn from the greatest one who ever did it, don’t learn from your surroundings if you can see that the people around you aren’t moving forward.

Eminem can never say he's bîgger than Dr Dre , and I can never say I'm bigger than Eminem. Those are the rules of the game." 50 Cent

"Eminem is a general but he knows how to be a soldîer with Dre. I am a general but I know how to be a soldîer with Eminem. And that's just being conscîous of yourself because you know the lãws of powęr, you never outshine the master. I even had a conversation and said that Drake should never go over or be past Lil Wayne in a conversation. No matter how much you achieve, always respect those who gave you a platform." 50 Cent

As an independent artist in today's competitive and ever-changing industry, it's easy to let fear hold you back. Whether it's fear of failure, fear of rejection, or fear of not being good enough, it can be paralyzing. But I'm here to tell you that you have the power to push through that fear and achieve your dreams.

Take a look at these four entertainers who pushed through their fears to reach success in their different industries:

1. Billie Eilish -
The American singer-songwriter has been open about her struggles with anxiety and self-doubt. But she didn't let that stop her from becoming one of the most successful musicians of her generation. She channeled her fears into her music, creating a raw and authentic sound that resonates with fans around the world.

2. Kendrick Lamar -
The American rapper and songwriter grew up in a rough neighborhood plagued by violence and poverty. But he didn't let his surroundings define him. Instead, he used his struggles as inspiration for his music, earning critical acclaim and multiple Grammy awards.

3. Nomzamo Mbatha -
The South African actress and activist has faced discrimination and adversity throughout her career. But she didn't let that deter her from pursuing her dreams. She used her platform to speak out against injustice and advocate for change, becoming a powerful voice for marginalized communities.

4. Nasty C -
South African rapper Nasty C faced numerous challenges too, including financial struggles and criticism from the industry. Instead of letting these obstacles hold him back, he used them as motivation to work even harder.
Now, he is one of the most successful rappers in South Africa, with a loyal fan base and multiple awards to his name.

So, if you feeling the weight of fear on your shoulders, remember this: success is not reserved for the fearless. It's reserved for those who push through their fears, embrace them, and use them as stepping stones towards their dreams.

Don't let fear hold you back.
Push through it, and watch as your success unfolds before you.

Emtee, whose real name is Mthembeni Ndevu, is a South African rapper, singer, and songwriter known for his distinctive style and storytelling abilities.

Here's an overview of Emtee's career and key aspects of his work:

Early Life and Career Beginnings:
Emtee was born on September 15, 1992, in Matatiele, South Africa. He developed a passion for music at a young age and started rapping in high school. Emtee gained attention through his participation in various talent competitions and local performances.

"Roll Up" Breakthrough:
Emtee rose to prominence in 2015 with the release of his hit single "Roll Up." The song became a massive success, earning him widespread recognition and establishing him as a rising star in the South African hip hop scene. "Roll Up" went on to win several awards and was remixed by Nigerian artist Wizkid and Ghanaian duo R2Bees.

"Avery" and "Manando" Albums:
In 2015, Emtee released his debut album, "Avery," named after his son. The album was well-received and showcased his lyrical ability, introspective storytelling, and melodic hooks. It included popular tracks like "Pearl Thusi" and "We Up." Emtee's second album, "Manando," was released in 2017 and was dedicated to his late friend, who inspired much of the project.

Awards and Recognition:
Emtee's talent and impact in the South African music industry have been acknowledged through numerous accolades. He has received multiple South African Music Awards (SAMAs), including Best Hip Hop Album and Best Rap Song. Emtee has also been nominated for BET Hip Hop Awards and MTV Africa Music Awards.

Record Label and Independence:
Emtee was initially signed to the South African record label Ambitiouz Entertainment. However, he left the label in 2019 due to creative differences and conflicts. Since then, he has pursued an independent career, releasing music through his own imprint, Emtee Records.

Musical Style and Themes:
Emtee's music blends elements of trap, hip hop, and R&B, often featuring catchy melodies and emotionally charged lyrics. He addresses various personal experienceI'm struggles, and aspirations in his songs, often providing a glimpse into his life and the realities of the streets.

Notable Tracks and Collaborations:
In addition to "Roll Up," Emtee has released several other notable tracks, including "Thank You," "Ghetto Hero," "Corner Store," and "Plug." He has collaborated with a range of artists, both from South Africa and internationally, including AKA, Nasty C, Wizkid, Tiwa Savage, and Saudi.

Recent Projects:
Emtee has continued to release music independently following his departure from Ambitiouz Entertainment. He has released several singles and two full-length albums, "DIY 2" (2018) and "Logan" (2021). These projects showcase Emtee's growth as an artist and his ability to connect with his audience.

Personal Challenges:
Emtee has been open about his personal struggles, including battles with substance abuse and financial difficulties. He has used his experiences as inspiration for his music and has also spoken about the importance of mental health and self-improvement.

Cultural Impact:
Emtee's music has resonated with audiences in South Africa and beyond, reflecting the experiences of many individuals in marginalized communities. His relatable lyrics, combined with his talent and authenticity, have made him a respected figure in the South African hip hop landscape.

Emtee's journey as "The Hustler" reflects his determination, resilience, and commitment to his craft. It's not a coincident that he's still at it in 2023 collaborating with the king of trap in the south Lord Script in his new track called "RUN IT".

We look forward to hearing more music coming form the resilient icon who name sparks conversation and might spell controversy with only 4 letters, L,O,V & E.

🎤 Brenda Fassie: Her Melodic Majesty 🎶

As a human being, Brenda's story reminds us that behind the glitz and glamour, even celebrated artists have their share of struggles. It's crucial to remember that everyone, regardless of fame, grapples with their inner battles.
