If you are talented in anything or what ever you love doing, do it for the love and not for the money.

If you are talented in anything or what ever you love doing, do it for the love and not for the money.
Some of us did not utilize their gifts because they wanted to make money with it. "YES" we all want to make money with what we can do or what we have. But putting the money first is wrong, especially on my line of business.

My names are Nwankwo Ikedi Kingsley a.k.a D'Multi Talented DJ K'NERO @iykeconero. I am into music and I want to share with you what we experience as upcoming artiste in my country Nigeria.

I stated before that we all want to make money with what we can do or what we have. But putting the money first is wrong, especially in my line of business. As an upcoming artiste in my country Nigeria, you don't make money with your talents rather you do it for the love.
Some of us don't go far in the music industry because we perform for the money instead of performing for the love. I have performed in more than 60 occasions/shows and not being paid. Its not that I love performing for free but I do it for the love I have for music. So many people will see me performing from one concert to another, thinking am gathering the whole money. My brother, I am not... I put in the little money I have for the love. I pay to perform/entertain people instead of the other way round.
I pay for the production of the track in the studio, I pay for the promotion of the song on radio stations and downloading sites. I pay to perform the same song to make people happy, etc. That is the love.
If I don't pay for all these things, will people know that's what I do? Of cause NO!
I know is hard for us, the upcoming artiste to do all these things on my own without sponsors. Due to the rate of unemployment in our country, the youths find it difficult to showcase their talents. But I advise us, never to lose hope keep on believing and work hard. The world will hear our names some day.
I have more than 200 composed and written songs on my own and I'm still composing. I can't stop because I have no money to produce them one by one. I keep on writing because of the love and passion I have for music and entertainment.

I think I should stop here and get busy with a song that just came into my mind now. Lemme leave us with these word's..... "Don't do it for the money, Do it for the LOVE
I LOVE YOU
THANKS FOR GIVING ME YOUR LITTLE ATTENTION
