You have to belong in cult to be successful in music – CDQ

Rapper, CDQ has said that achieving success in the  music industry often requires being connected to a certain cult or group

During an interview on Jbrandy Entertainment, he argued that many independent artistes struggle to recover the money they invest in their careers if they are not aligned with influential industry networks.

He described it as a difficult reality within the music space.

He added that artistes who manage to break through without such connections should consider it a blessing, noting that lack of affiliation can make the journey financially draining.

“The hardest truth about the music industry is that it has turned into a place where you have to belong to a particular caucus, gang, or cult before anyone can help you,” the rapper said.

“If you are able to succeed as an independent artist without any of that, then you should thank God for it. If you don’t belong to any group or gang, you might end up spending a lot without seeing any return.”
