An Waken Call to Jos Music Industry By Peter Asmour Arin - Jostify the Music

JOSTIFY THE MUSIC

What you give is what you get,
No industry grows on its own,
All components must function as one,
Growth is inevitable,

The Artistes and Record Labels,
Are you surprised at why your songs are not played?
The production is whacked,
The lyrics doesn't make sense,
The mixing and mastering is nonsense,
On your own,
Improve the bits and pieces,
Let's see where it goes,
I also applaud the good ones,
You own the kingdom,
Verily,
It is a do or die,
Not a plan B,
It is the only plan,


Promotion,
This is expensive,
Yet we must venture into it,
It is the remaining puzzle,
The rest would be history,

The Music Producers,
To the ones that are making us proud,
Keep moving,
We appreciate you,
To the ones that are coming up,
Keep grinding,
But we must all improve,

The DJ's,
Tough as it is,
You're the industry's vehicle,
You take it where its supposed to be,
If you play their songs,
They improve,
If you don't they're stagnant,
This industry needs you,
If I must be fair,
The industry can't grow without you,
You need to know that,
You must understand that,
That is why,
You must build this house,
Jostify the music,
There are no two ways about it,
Your role is royalty,
Your part is prominent,
What you're doing isn't enough,
You're part of this destiny,

The OAP,
You're equally kingly,
As part of the radio and/or TV,
You're mandated to play 60% local,
Everything international was once local,
Your hands are unclean,
This industry needs you,
You must champion this journey,
You're a part of its success and failure,

NBC,
You have the mandate to unhold the code,
If it is not 60% local,
You can enforce it,
Local content must be given prominence,
It is the only way it will blow,

The Government,
Make the environment conducive,
Make enabling laws,
There are jobs,
It will reduce crime,
A boast to the economy,
Meaning a beautiful GDP,
Music is cool business,
It is the highest employer of labour worldwide,
How can we be sitting on gold and not see?
Isn't that ludacris?
I demand an AGENCY for the CREATIVES,
Give us a budget,
We'll shock you,
Jostify the music,

The private sector,
I mean the investors,
Yes you,
Your little penny could make the difference,
Use your money on these talents,
The effects would wow you,
Still waiting for the government?
Na waoh o!
What are you doing?
Just liking the music is not enough,
Your money could bring about the change,
Jostify the music,

PMAN! PMAN!!
You're supposed to be the voice,
You were sent as a servant,
You're behaving like a dictator,
I don't see your face,
I don't know what you have become,
You've abandoned the constitution,
We are a laughing stock,
This journey is serious,
We need to be on the same page,
Wake up,

PYC,
I wish to remind you,
That these talents can't hibernate,
It's like being in limbo,
Or even coma,
Use your platform well,
We'll raise beautiful champions,
And save a generation,
Let's Jostify the music,

There is always news to break,
Most times you have to fetch it,
A blogger must be proactive,
We need you to tell our stories,
Whether for free or paid,
Gist is what makes an industry grow,
Jostify the news,

The people are the fans,
The fans are the people,
The most important part of the industry,
Change of thinking is necessary,
No body would love what belongs to you,
Jostify your thinking,
Yes they are local,
But how would they become international without you?
You must encourage them,
Buy their music,
Pay them when they perform,
It is the only way,

By sharing other peoples contents on social media,
We create our own traffic,
The fans need to be informed,
The fan base must come together,
Your fans can be mine,
Mine can be yours,
In the end,
We progress,
The industry takes the glory,
We Jostify the music,
While the stomach takes the glory,
It won't hurt to share peoples activities,

Collaboration is the key,
It would unlock our potentials,
With this we soar,
Our uniqueness is the strength,
We'll grow only if we choose,
The only way,
Jostify the music,
