This is not an apology, it's like a clarification or rejoiner or whatever U wants to call it of my previous post: DJ Notorious Marshall read.
I didn't really mean to come here to spoil any promoter's market, I came to say my mind like facebook always asks "What's on your mind"? So please no one should think my post is about them abeg, God knows if I had anyone in mind before my write-up I'll go straight and name names without mincing words.
For God's sake like one of the comment on my previous post I agrees 100% that every products or artist got it's price tagg no doubt (Gucci or Versace nor dey same price level with Zara) But everyone still have to agree with me that we have seen artists with only one hit or lowly rated artist not even worth up to our own EU based act been sold to some of 'em "New comers" promoters here in EU at an exuberant price that the artists are not really worth (just like selling Fake Versace for price of the original is a rip-off), many of these neo or modern versions of promoters has been victim of losses they're ashamed to come here to confess about.
I have also been a "JJC" and victim sometime ago too but today I have started learning how to cut my "coats" according to my size. I been able to count the costs, the gains and also count the loses so now I always tries to balance the sheets (Make minus and Plus before jumping on any artist show no matter how much am tempted to organize that show) .
I nor go be "mugu" forever now, abi? Even the neo promoters eyes must also clear one day to realise there's no "flesh on stock-fish head". Just like losses there had also been time U atleast balance the checks but your clients are not happy cause they didn't get what they paid for and they feels cheated. So why I made my post about "Bracket" like a testimony is that I thought I did 2 successful shows here in Spain not only cause I felt like I balanced my checks but because I saw the artist performed for more than 1 hour which is very rare in Nigerian and many afrobeat artists (1 good hour my people, when was the time I have witnessed that for God's sake?) They still wanted to keep performing If I didn't beg them to stop cause they got a early morning flight to catch to their next venue.
I saw the fans so happy and excited almost eating the artist raw, the artist also very happy to relate and take pictures with their fans after their performance even though they could have "faked" tiredness. So I now asked myself just like facebook always asks me what's on my mind, "How I wish every artist or show coming to EU can be like Bracket's show?? I could do Bracket show every week here in Madrid and people will still turn up with all pleasures". Where am really going here is that it's high time we also think about that "entertainment" aspect of this Afrobeat showbiz movement not just the business part and that one sided winners gain it all way.
I mean a win win part of it where the artist is content (got promoted by the promoter and still smile home with money), the tour promoter happy, the show hosts happy and most especially the fans are happy. So when I said "sanity" I mean real sanity, I will never be fooled by those "hype" tour promoters comes on social media to shout "sold-out show" (My eyes don open pass like that now, we know wetin dey) my brothers and sisters don't be fooled, ask the host of that show how much remain for his pocket after the show make dem tell U.
That show host (promoter) for sure is even avoiding phone calls of people who he might have borrowed money from to run that show trust me. EU Afrobeat Showbiz movements needs to take to another dimension, it's not on a competition levels things but doing it right cause the whole world is watching us and maybe finally we'll get the supports and investments we lacks around this part of this world when the investors notices we're doing great things worth risking their money on. My name is "Notorious Marshal" am not that common sense "senator" so I didn't come here to make sense but to clear my mind of what I have inside it. God bless y'all for taking time to read my essay.
