Etcetera just got himself another enemy, lol… Ladies and gentlemen, you are welcome to the new game in
town. For better or for worse, our music “industry” is embracing a new form of
art. The focus has shifted almost entirely from making music to something else.
Now the transition is finally complete and the sync word here is LIE. In
Nigeria today, every artist needs a “lying” platform – or three, to reach their
target audience. Years back, radio used to be the dominant “platform” for
breaking new artists, you may say it is still important, but the radio is
certainly no longer the only game in town. It is becoming simply too limited,
too expensive and too difficult to control to be the sole platform. A better
and surer way to expose the artist to the public has been discovered. Now the
artist with the biggest LIE has the bigger and better head start.

mugshots were released.
