Do You Really Need Another Music Review Forum?

Why Do A Review

There is a need for an objective and competent review of a musical project so as to serve FOUR purposes:

1.       General Public: are made aware of a pending or released project. This helps create hype and publicity for the artists work. A review can also garner excitement and anticipation. On the other hand, it can also create a lack of enthusiasm.

2.       Artist: are compelled to make quality music because they know their music is scrutinized and evaluated on a public level. They know that if they make quality music and the review is favorable then the public will anticipate it. But if the review is unfavorable it should not disencourage the artist but rather provoke him or her towards improvement – which is the primary reason for the review.

3.       Me: that I may grow competent and trustworthy. That my review of a project should be accurate and fair; that the artist and general public should be able to trust my judgment through time. I am open to correction, my review is not the “final word”, its intended to be a “guiding word”.

4.       There is another review forum, the Malawi Hip-Hop review which is handled by Da Litespeax of 1 Lord and I believe that in such an atmosphere you need at least another review forum which helps people weigh and decide on degrees of fairness and accuracy between the two forums. There should be no one single entity through which people receive review. Furthermore, while Malawi hip-hop gospel review emphasizes more on attitude and motive, Sharp Iron review is centered on different criteria.
