Johannesburg - Hey there, future rockstar! Before you blow up and become super famous, DJ Dimplez wants to tell you some stuff.
The popular hip-hop DJ and producer has been in the music game for some time, and so who better to give advice on what it takes to make it big in the industry than him?
Obviously Dimplez has been thinking a bit about the industry, and so he decided to take to Twitter this week to share some pearls of wisdom on lessons future musicians need to learn.
Being signed doesn't mean you've made it. It means that you have been signed. That's all. The work is only beginning.

Keep your head up. Take in every point that needs to be taken in. Don't stop working. Whether you're a Dj or an artist keep going.

He also has some advice for those looking to manage or discover the next big thing.
People think managing someone's career is simple. This industry is intense. Lots of chancers come and go.

Either go with someone with a good track record or rather trust yourself and handle your own hustle.

If you want to take a risk with someone new in the game it's all good. Just know it won't be smooth sailing the whole way.

Personally I'm still learning everyday. I call and ask for advice all the time. Sometimes it looks like everything is against you, but hey..
