Popular Nigerian musician, Funmi Ayinke is set to release the video for her hit track, Chocolate, on Saturday, 27TH of May 2023.

The phenomenal musician made this known during an interview session with Colourful Radio London, England yesterday Saturday, 13th of May, 2023.

Funmi Ayinke stated that she will be celebrating her 40th Birthday on May 27 and to celebrate her big day, she has decided to release the video which her teeming fans have been requesting since the release of the song.

Funmi Ayinke during this interview session spoke about varieties of things including the reason behind her sojourn into the music industry, how she has grown in the industry, and her aspirations in the coming years.

She explained that her journey into the music industry was borne out of the need to motivate the young ones differently. She posited that the young ones don’t like reading and music, being a powerful tool, was the best way to reach them.

Funmi Ayinke also revealed in the interview that she has never been a music person and that she was always embarrassed back in the day for singing off-key.

‘’I love to motivate people a lot, I know people especially the youth don’t read so I thought of ways to add value to the young ones. I needed to let them know success isn’t magic, you don’t jump into it and may not know the Funmi Ayinke process. I felt if they don’t read me, they should be able to sing me because Music is very powerful. Due to this reason, I delved into music and recorded a song titled The Journey. I was surprised at the outcome and I had about one million views on YouTube.’’

‘’I have never been a music person, they didn’t like giving me the microphone to sing in my university days because I was always off-key. ‘’

When asked about the idea behind her viral song titled Carry Me, Funmi Ayinke explained that it was a form of advocacy against ‘breakfast’

‘’My song ‘carry me’ is amazing, I love it. There is this slogan we say in Nigeria which is ‘Breakfast’, which means ending a relationship or breaking up. I was annoyed in my spirit when I heard about the slogan because I didn’t like the fact that it was encouraging break-up so I felt like instead of having breakfast, why not encourage a long-lasting relationship?’’

Funmi Ayinke is currently in London for a music tour which has started already. She is expected back in Nigeria in a few weeks for the celebration of her 40th Birthday.

How Good Music Will Help You To Become Known as an Artist Says Tmaq

 

A&R Guru Makinde Babatunde Qudus popular known as Tmaq has revealed what artiste needs to be known.

Tmaq said more than just skills is needed to break out as an artist in the continuously changing music industry, great music that really connects with listeners is also necessary. I can say with confidence that excellent music is the foundation of an artist’s success, I have spent years navigating the complexities of the music industry.

Here are some of the reason :

Authenticity is the foundation of good music. Audiences are hungry for authenticity and uniqueness. Music that is authentic to your feelings, experiences, and distinct viewpoint connects deeply with listeners. Your genuineness distinguishes you from the myriad artists who might be following fads or imitating popular styles.

Music has the ability to arouse feelings and produce enduring memories. Excellent music has an emotional resonance that stays with the listener. Whether it’s happiness, sorrow, love, or rage, expressing these feelings via your music can build a devoted following. People are more inclined to support you and spread the word if they relate to and are moved by your music.

The caliber of your music creation is crucial in the current digital era. In a pool of poor recordings, tunes that are clear, crisp, and well-produced stand out. Investing in a top-notch production shows off your professionalism and commitment to the industry while also improving the listening experience. To make sure your music is well-produced and musically appealing, work with talented sound engineers and producers.

A catchy melody or an impactful line might be what makes a song a hit. It’s critical to write meaningful lyrics and memorable hooks that stay in the listener’s head. Easy-to-remember melodies and lyrics that either tell a gripping tale or make a sympathetic point are hallmarks of good music. This combination has the power to take a song viral and grab the interest of music business insiders as well as fans.

Good music demands constant work and development; it cannot be produced in a single sitting. High-caliber music releases on a regular basis keep listeners interested and create hype for your upcoming endeavors. Don’t be scared to change and play around with your sound at the same time. Developing as an artist helps you stay current in a cutthroat market by keeping your music fascinating and new.

Your brand as an artist is inextricably linked to your music. A strong brand identity is established and reinforced by good music. Whether your music is renowned for its inventive production, distinctive voice, or skill with words, it should always represent and bolster your brand. Fans and industry insiders find you distinctive and recognizable when you have a strong brand that is supported by excellent music.

Music journalists, record labels, producers, and other industry professionals are drawn to great music. When your music is unique, it can lead to a number of options, such as joint ventures, record agreements, and media attention. Gaining notoriety in your field can greatly advance your career by giving you access to areas that will increase your influence and reach.

To sum up, a musician’s career is based on the quality of their music. It is the component that wins people over, commands attention, and leaves a lasting effect. To make your music stand out in a competitive market, as an artist, you should concentrate on emotional resonance, consistency, production quality, distinctive melodies, authenticity, and brand building. Keep in mind that excellent music speaks for itself and creates the foundation for a fruitful and influential career.
