THIS IS FOR THOSE WHO ARE ARTIST AND DOING STAGE SHOWS...THERE ARE CERTAIN KEY FACTORS TO NOTE

1.ATTIRE HAS TO BE WEL PUT TOGETHER...APPEARANCE IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT...NOTHING DULL AND BORING...UR DRESS CODE HAS TO MATCH UR PERSONA...SO IF UR A LADIES DJ...U HAVE TO DRESS FLASHY...IF UR A GANSTA ARTIST U HAVE TO DRESS LIKE UR GOING TO WAR....MAKES NO SENSE LOOKING LIKE A CHRISTIAN ON STAGE AND SPIT GUN TUNE...CYAAH WORK

2.PREPARATION FOR MATERIAL-MEK SURE U KNO SONGS WELL AND ALWAYS HAVE AT LEAST 2 FRESH SONGS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN ON RECORD...THESE CAN BE JUST STAGE TUNES....BUT IT WILL DRAW THE CROWD INTEREST

3.DELIVERY....START OFF HOT AND MAKE SURE U FINISH HOT....DONT KILL UR SEGMENT BY DOING THE ONLY TWO TUNES EVERY1 KNOWS U HAVE AND THEN WITH SOME LAME BORING SONGS....MAKES NO SENSE...U KILLED UR HYPE....WHEN U GET THE FORWARD....COME OFF STAGE....THAT WAY THE CROWD WILL WANT AN ENCORE...

4.NERVOUSNESS....NO MATTER HOW MUCH YEARS UVE BEEN ON STAGE...U WILL GET BUTTERFLIES IN UR TUMMY...CUD BE IN A PLACE SMALL AS A CLUB OR STING OR SUMFEST...OR SOMEWHERE HUGE AS MADISON SQUARE GARDENS... U WILL GET NERVOUS....SOME PPL SMOKE WEED....SIP A THING BEFORE GOING ON STAGE...BUT FACING THE CROWD IS THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE....YOU CAN WEAR SHADES/GLASSES....THIS WILL HIDE YOUR NERVOUSNESS AND GIVE U A FORM OF SELF CONFIDENCE

5. DO NOT PUT THE MIC TO UR SIDE WHILE PERFORMING..THIS GIVES A AWFUL FEEDBACK FROM THE STAGE SPEAKERS AND U WILL FLOP....OBVIOUSLY

6. DO NOT CUFF THE MIC-CUFF THE MIC MEANING USING UR HANDS AND COVERING THE TOP OF THE MIC....THIS KILLS THE CLARITY AND NO ONE WILL HEAR U WELL...AND U LIKE SOME BIG IDIOT WILL BLAME SOUND PPL....

7.GETTING THE CROWDS ATTENTION-DO NOT TURN UR BACK TO THE CROWD ...NOR SHUD STAND SIDEWAYS...ALWAS FACE THE CROWD..MIC IN ONE HAND AND UR THE NEXT HAND MOVING OR POINT TO THE CROWD WHILE DELIVERING...NO ONE WANTS TO LOOK LIKE THEIR INNA CHOIR ON STAGE

8.TALK TO THE CROWD-JUST DOING A BUNCH OF SONGS AND COMING OFF WILL NOT WORK...TALKING TO THE CROWD WILL HAVE U IN THEIR HANDS...U HAVE TO INTERACT WITH THE CROWD...GIVE UR SONGS PROPER INTRODUCTION....THIS WILL GIVE U A BIGGER FORWARD AND IT FOLLOW UP WITH THE VIBE

9.DONT DISS THE CROWD...UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES...DISRESPECT THE AUDIENCE...EVEN IF U GET A HUGE BOO...DO NOT LET THIS KILL UR BUZZ...JUST BE YOURSELF AND FINISH UR SEGMENT LIKE A REAL MAN

10.RESPECT UR STAGE TIME AND OTHERS-IF U HAVE A 10 MINUTE STAGE SEGMENT....DONT OVERDWEET TO HALF HOUR...SHOWS THAT UR DISRESPECTING THE HOST, THE PROMOTER, THE NEXT ARTIST AND THE PPL......IF THE HOST SAYS THAT YOU SHOULD" DO ONE TUNE AND CUT"...JUST DO IT....DO NOT DO AN ALBUM OF SONGS ON STAGE....LUUU THING THAT
