Taking to his Twitter account, Donald expressed his concern about the unprofessionalism displayed by these young artists. He warned that if they continue down this path, they will experience a major downfall.
“In my industry, the biggest downfall for some of our young artists is the low level of professionalism. I’m afraid you’re not going to go too far if you don’t take that part seriously,” he wrote.
Donald emphasized the importance of showing up, arriving early, communicating effectively, being patient, and being respectful at all times. These may seem like simple points, but they are crucial for success in the music industry.
This isn’t the first time an OG (original gangster) has warned young artists about their careless behavior, especially when it comes to gigs. It’s a common problem that needs to be addressed if these artists want to have a long and prosperous career.
So, to all the young music artists out there, take heed of Donald’s advice. Professionalism is key, and it can make or break your journey in the industry. Show up, be punctual, communicate effectively, and always remember to be respectful. Your future success may depend on it.
Remember, the music industry can be a tough game, but with the right attitude and professionalism, you can rise above the rest and make a lasting impact. Good luck!
