Upcoming artists continue to face challenges to break out in a densely populated industry. Of late, almost every capable youth who can afford to record has become an artist considering recording fees has gone way down to as low as US$5. Great many thanks to mushrooming digital home studios that have given opportunities to disadvantaged talented artists to create, be heard and become famous.
Despite the cost of producing a track and video getting affordable, many up and coming artists' music still fail to make it to the radio stations due to either its poor quality, artist not networked, lacks originality or the artist simply does not know where to go.
To address the issue of quality and networking artists are encouraged to look for opportunities to collaborate. Collaboration is when two or more artists come together in a project.
Collaboration gives artists vast opportunities to be more creative and produce masterpieces and best sellers. The reason why most collabos are great is that artists always puts up their best creative elements complimenting each other.
We have had outstanding collabos that have left fans wanting more.
Jah Prayzah collaborated with Diamond in the song Watora Mari off Mudhara achauya album. Both artists are juggernauts in Zimbabwe and of Tanzania respectively and through collaboration they have stolen fans either way.
Upcoming artist cum producer Kanto Dem and Diamond White worked together on These Ghetto Streets, a reggae single currently getting popularity in the UK.
Oliver Mtukudzi and Winky D gave the world Panorwadza Moyo, a hearty and touching song which is lovely globally.
A few years back Tuku collaborated with Ringo on Into Yami.
Willom Tight and Dino Mudondo did a masterpiece in Chirangano during the Urban Grooves heydays.
These songs contains rich artistic expressions with unforgettable auras of their own.
If only upcoming artist could tape more into collabos especially with musical veterens such as Tuku, Mapfumo, Sulumani, Jah Prayzah, Prudence Katomeni Mbofana, Edith WeUtonga and others, they will learn a lot as well as fish for a wider audience.
