Some of the questions were about handling promoters, making a name for oneself in the music industry and how and when to register a song.<\/p>\n<p>The 1020 Cartel\u2019s Sjava recommended that performers made a name for themselves, have a management team that was continuously growing and one that was always on top of all the trends happening.<\/p>\n<p>Performer Sarnilo said she found the workshop very insightful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI learnt a lot as an artist. However, there are a lot of things that I still have to sort out, something I did not know about like copyright and reading up on the law on the music industry. It was a very great two day session also because I am a Sjava fan,\u201d said Sarnilo.<\/p>\n<p>While Velemseni, who attended the workshop, as an artist and lecturer, stated that the workshop was absolutely amazing.<\/p>\n<p>She said as a music lecturer, at the Limkokwing University of Creative Technology, she got some of her students who studied music design to attend the workshop with her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe learnt a lot about the music business at the foundation of building strong artists or a strong business. We also discussed some law and legislator issues. And we got to spend some genuine time with successful people, which is rare as there is hardly ever time when we meet up during events,\u201d she said. One of the students, Delisile Khoza said the workshop was helpful in understanding music, where it started and where it went.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe learnt that it is not always about the big picture of the finished product that we see on Tv, as there is a lot of work that happens behind the scenes.<\/p>\n<p>Also I got to learn that it is important for an artist to be focused and have a team that supports your dream,\u201d said Khoza. After the workshop was closed, participants were afforded the chance to take pictures with the 102 Cartel team before they left for South Africa.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
