GLOCK FOREX DECLARES HE'S BACK IN 'ASTROKID' WHILE TEASING 2023 TAKEOVER
Glock has let his devoted fans know he’s back in the lab and on a different type of time amid all the hype surrounding the coming release of a new album.
The Jhb, Westrand, native coughed out some things off from his chest on one of the songs on Astrokid Album saying that, “all the hating cant stop my purpose, they worry more wen the promblems stops. Some people dont appreciate u when u humble and sharing, they mistakenly you for a fool,” continuing stating.
OVERVIEW
The album title is named after glock forex facing family issues with his mother, getting a new born son after loosing a job and midrand gigs and events promo tour. Astro (Astronaut) kid title is referred to the hard elevation on his career as he had to push his content of music, going/working over times and over hours in the studio solo and pushing music in location which musical entertainment is not supported.
I believe the creative theme of ASTROKID, on Glock's album is trying to tell or show you is that failure or improvement can sometimes be the effect that makes things hard in our life, and working hard with the same presure might lead to achieving or effecting your career to the state of doing (Drugs, indecent and public offenses). How did he manage to elevate, as the title says it all ASTROKID ? The artist ddnt allow negativity, pressure, critics and insomnia to affect his career and life. The trap star had to be in cannibus, uplifting creativity, maintaining time and his own space to find the inner peace while composing the projects on Astrokid album

SFISO.
Content and digital creator.
The Ivory Park resider, locally movements and events supporter (locally music lover and artists follower).
Sfoso's POV, Facts and Opinions are stated, basically relating to the experience and challenges that the artist he support are facing. He is giving advices and making sure that artist should be on the right track throughout their music. He said,' that music in our hood is nicer than the music produced by major artists, I mean this artists from our hoods are hungry and they produce music with highly desire and passion which makes their tunes to be best.
Most of music actually lacks support and promotions, so is hard to be hear out ther and ends within our hood circle till the song is no more heard or effective. Upcoming musician/Artists actually lack support because they dont have budget (money) as he mean that if you don’t have money, it is had for them to break through(Blow up) and also to get bookings as artist needs to be paid and also on collaborations.
Sfiso found out that artists are lacking support because of the society or the community is not indulging or engaging on supporting the youth movements hosted locally. The concept behind making music and moving forward, consists various artists of which they not working together but having same goals and objectives. that is also an issue of artists wen they not getting enough gigs or events locally they get to be disadvantage or growing their craft and career. Artists don't want to collab, co operate and support each other.
Artists should indulge in podcast and be live on socials to talk or inform the communities about what they doing and where they need support. Artist should get right Manager and PR's, cause getting the right people pushing your work is very important. Music career is not cheap to pick so they should invest, instead they think music has a short cut [fake it till you make it] so they don’t want to pave their way up. it’s all about spending before gaining.
