good branding ploy  by  Lebogang Mukansi
But they need to take it further, product usage and packaging need to be incorporated into the strategic marketing plan. I'm gonna check out and would love to see HHP & Pro represent SA. please spare us the kwaito, house or RnB ACTS we dont attend hip hop shows to acts from other genre.

-Facebook & Mixit profiles could have been used
-A documentary on 50&(mini docies on SA artists competing to perfom with 50)

I also think that SA promoters allow artist both local and international acts alike to get away with murder, very little concert promotion is driven either through actual instore or pre concert promotions. they'll do a little press conference and drop a few press junkets.

Give us more, challenge us, give experiences we will cherish for a lifetime. we dont do concerts to scream and shout its teh experience that counts. marketing people need to start thinking like your markets,better yet speak to your markets(us).

why?  by  mongz
i dont understand why 50 is coming back to s.a cos his ulbum is wack and its not selling this side of the world.
i asked the same question when i heard fat joe was coming, really now, this promoters are waisting our time.
