In the Nigerian music scene, the ‘alternative’ was invented by me in 2013 as a cure to the ills of the mainstream, not to be a part of it.. to be ‘alternative’ means that the process of recording, performing, distributing and rating your work is different from the mainstream..— Olofo'ro (@BrymOlawale) May 6, 2018
‘Alternative’ is more than a genre here, it is a collective of Maverick artistes who have consistently refused to be part of the mediocrity the music industry has been known to dedicate itself to..— Olofo'ro (@BrymOlawale) May 6, 2018
The ‘alternative’ scene has not yet evolved its own rating system, and musicians in that corner must learn patience, and yet must continue to blaze the trail. The mainstream learns the ethics of the business from us, we must keep the arrangement that way...— Olofo'ro (@BrymOlawale) May 6, 2018
At 1pm, for thirty minutes, I’ll be answering professional questions from artistes and music industry professionals... ask me about songwriting, vocals, production, promotion, stage performance, and even distribution...— Olofo'ro (@BrymOlawale) May 6, 2018
