Mr. Leo

My 2015 in 3 words: Strategic, challenging, progressive.

Despite the hard work & the good products, I still had a lot of shortcomings as per how things were supposed to be done & so took some wrong turns that I took some time to understand. Hoping to correct all these in 2016. Having a good plan for the year as per releases (what song to release & when, promoting the right way). Preparing a full package for the public and diversifying my act to extend my fan base as much as possible to the rest of Africa & the world at large meanwhile remaining myself.

Salatiel

2015, for me in 3 words: Challenging, formative, kick-starter

In 2015, we had a lot of short comings caused by many external factors that held me from attacking full scale as planned, so 2016 is the year to eliminate these negative factors and give full scale.

I am hoping by the end of year 2016 that Salatiel should be one of Africa's most talked about and visible producer and artist.

For Alpha Better Records, it is the year to confirm what we started. It will be a year with many releases, and new acts will be introduced, with a focus especially on branding and promo. I would say we hope 2016 is the year we can show the world at large what we are really and fully made of.

It's time to get it!

My 2015 was Exceptional, integrity, creative.

In 2016, I do not want to change a lot about by event planning/design business but improve on areas that need growth.

I had a couple of challenges but they are life lessons that catapult you into making better decisions in the future.
