Dearartiste started as random tweets to
several upcoming Nigerian artistes who use twitter both as a social
network and as a music promotional tool.
The #Dearartiste tweets have been able to reach these artistes and give out words of advice on various subjects and also encourage and motivate them.
The DEARARTISTE FORUM takes a step further to ensure that more artistes are given the opportunity to learn first-hand from industry heads because no man is an island or a fountain of knowledge all by himself.
