Selling off 2500 tickets in Canada difficult for Buju
Buju couldn’t sell off tickets of a 2500 capacity sitting in Canada, despite the fact that ticket sales commenced in April/May, the total number of tickets sold did not reach 2500.
Buju must comprehend that possessing talent alone is insufficient. While he excels in songwriting and singing, consistently disrespecting Davido will not work in his favour. Setting aside playful banter, Davido is considered to be among the big ‘4’ in the Nigerian music industry, even if he holds the fourth position that does not calls for disrespect.
Buju’s actions towards 30BG fans might provoke a negative response from them, potentially leading to repercussions.
He should have sought a more diplomatic approach to safeguard his career, but instead, he shifted the focus towards Davido.
Musicians heavily rely on concerts to generate income. If the audience is unwilling to pay to witness an artist, it poses a significant issue. Although streaming services contribute to revenue generation, the primary source of income stems from live appearances, which are contingent on demand.
For instance, how much was Rema paid for performing at a wedding ceremony? Rema would not engage in the same behavior as Buju. Even Shallipopi would not dare to do so. Portable, on the other hand, could escape unscathed due to his reputation as a humorous entertainer.
Leave cruise and banter for people wey no be musicians. Davido is not Buju’s mate in any level at all.
