Imagine you are an inspiring music minister and you are about to venture into afro gospel industry. There are several big artists in the industry, and you’re asking if you’ll ever ‘blow’. Well, we understand your plight, so we have come to give you some tips to help you in life. 

Listen before you jump into the studio 

I watched one of Gaise Baba’s interviews, and he mentioned how God explicitly gave him words about his music journey. Truth is that becoming a music minister is way different from being a secular artist. You have to learn to wait on the Lord before you jump into the studio, unless you want to just do it anyhow. 

Sticking to your genre may be hard

You take a look at the industry, and you see almost everyone having their niche and sticking to it. You want ampiano and you find Prinx Emmanuel. You want some songs for your devotion, then jump on Folabi Nuel and Called Out Music. You need to carve a niche for yourself. If you are having a hard time finding your niche, you might need to explore many options before settling for one. 

Popularity is not always the plan

I get it that the world we live in right now has made us believe that your ministry is not growing if you are popular. Come off it. All that matters is if you are in the centre of God’s plan. 

Having the right management is key

Have you ever wondered why solo artists who are not signed to any record label yet have a successful career? Well, this is because they have a great management team. 

Personal Brand dey important 

Sometimes, our personal image could be the weapon fashioned against us. Imagine that 2 years ago you were seen dancing to some lewd music in a club, and this year you decide to ‘follow Jesus’. My dear, it doesn’t work that way. If you want to be a music minister, then you need to have an identity that promotes Jesus and godly virtues. 

The final tip is to seek God’s help as you begin your journey.
