Today musicians are using social media to connect with fans, share their musical contents, brand themselves, build anticipation, and generate revenue in new and unique ways. — There is a need for a connection that empowers both (artists and Fans) to give each other what they are looking for.
Artists should be reaching their new fan bases online through social channels?
About 70% of the Cameroonian population access Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and other features every day therefore it is very common for everyone to have a smartphone.
It’s almost a need and necessity for a record label to hire a certified/talented digital marketer to act as their PR. These marketers will optimize and manage their artist’s Facebook pages, Instagram accounts, and twitter with a shared password. Agencies like Makonjoh Media are 100% perfect for such tasks.
We decided to look at the top most popular urban musicians in Cameroon that are followed on Social Media.
We considered three main social media platforms for this purpose – Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. We then summed up the followers on the three platforms to come up with the list.
