YOU CAN BE A CELEBRITY AS AN INSTRUMENTALIST
Sounds strange and implausible right?
It is no news that instrumentalists are one of the most underappreciated folks in the commercial music industry.
LET US CONSIDER THESE THINGS:
• As a serious instrumentalist, you spend sleepless nights rehearsing with the lead vocalist of a band and even doing more after he or she has gone to bed.
• You spend a fortune online and offline getting access to some of the best materials money can buy
• You invest In getting a very expensive brand of your personal instrument.
ALL THESE FOR WHAT PURPOSE:
• To be treated like a dispensable piece of meat by the lead singer and the band leader
• To be paid way less than the singer who did less work than you
• To be rejected the attention you deserve while you watch the singers hog all the fame
SOUNDS FAMILIAR RIGHT?
Yeah, we all went through that phase as matters of fact, some of us are still going through that phase..
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHY THIS IS THE POPULAR SCENARIO TODAY?
THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE: SYSTEM…

THIS SYSTEM CAN MAKE YOU A CELEBRITY AS AN INSTRUMENTALIST.
One of the most powerful secrets behind big and successful brands that made it from nothing to something is: SYSTEM.
When I say system, I mean: a defined mode of operation that is guided by some infallible laws.
Let us take football for example: Long before the Era of leagues and real competitive football, football was considered an idle sport and just another form of recreation.
But as it grew in popularity and started gaining a cult following, some smart, business minded and trend conscious people saw an opportunity to create an empire that will outlive many. Now what was once a tension relieving sport has metamorphosed into a multi-billion dollar giant brand that is changing the lives of millions of people and decreasing unemployment by turning young people who would have been street urchins and societal menace into national heroes
The multibillion dollar question in your minds now is: HOW CAN THIS BE RELATED TO MY CAREER AS AN INSTRUMENTALIST?
Te answer is simple: CHANGE THE SYSTEM.
I am talking about the system that puts instrumentalist at the bottom of the food chain, the system that has left many talented young individuals in the street struggling to survive while their talents withers before their eyes.
THAT IS THE SYSTEM!!!
But how can I change the system? You might ask.
Well, you know how singers succeeded in changing theirs: they decided to stop being taken for granted, they rebranded themselves, they created an industry and made laws, they brought their product to the world in a fancy package and the world rushed to their bait.
Today, being a singer just like being a footballer is the new cool because a few people decided to do the right thing.
IT IS TIME FOR INSTRUMENTALISTS TO DO THE SAME AND IT STARTS WITH YOU…
In case you are challenged but not sure what your first step should be, don’t worry I got you.
Stop rehearsing just to play in a church or in a show and take a step towards showing the world your music.
