I‘ve been studying the music scene for a while now and I have been involved in several projects of great proportions (Timaya’s first album, kc Presh, pasto goody to name a few). Added to the fact that I am a roving music reporter, I guess I can be said to an authority in the game, abi! Many budding artistes have come up to me and are like “menthol, how do I hit the lime light?” So I have come up with a time testable formula. Check it out:
- step 1 Get Terry G to produce a dance hall- like beat for you no matter the genre of music you play.
- Step 2 Make sure Terry G also takes the chorus/hook and he shouts “free me now!” in the back ground.
- Step 3 Feature Timaya on a verse where he chants “Dem mama, dem papa” and dem other family members” about 50 times. Also get him to make some religious chants.
- Step 4 Bootleg the track with djays and alaba boiz
- step 5 Do a remix featuring M.I
