On Sunday, Nigerian music producer Don Jazzy took to Twitter where he advised upcoming artistes on how to manage fame and fortune when they eventually succeed in the industry.
Musician, Sound Sultan followed suit on Monday but he chose to advise the already successful artistes this time around. The Naija Ninjas boss warned established artistes not to mime at shows or water down their standards to please show promoters. He also warned them about the nature of company they should keep.
Here are some of the tweets:
