Speaking on the reasons, dangers and way forward in Artistes failing to show up for events they have been booked and paid for, Bulldog, CEO of Bullhaus Entertainment who has managed successful Artistes has shared that, some artistes lack the discipline and change after getting a hit song.
In an interview on Joy FM which as monitored by The Chronicle, Bulldog said:
“An artiste would release a song, no structure, then boom the song goes all over the world, now they are gods in their own sense,” he disclosed.
“The few shows that come up, you guys go and play, then when they say [to the fans], ‘put your hands up’, the whole like forty thousand people, [indeed raise their hands]” Bulldog shared the difficulty in getting Artistes who command tens of thousands of people to do their bidden to follow rules and regulations.
In his opinion, Bulldog said most of the Artistes have dreams limited to owning of cars, access to women of their choice and houses, and beyond that, there is no other compelling ambition to make them obey managerial rules and regulations.
Born Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson, Bulldog believes that until Artistes learn how to construct bigger visions for themselves, they will fall short of becoming legends like Michael Jackson and Bob Marley, both of whom are of blessed memory but keep making impact in the lives of many.
