Business wise, not many can crack it in the music business, only a select few. Is there a certain secret ingredient that those who become widely success use? The answer could be different from one artist to another, Cassper Nyovest has went on to share his. With the consumption of music changing and evolving from the previous mediums such as the CDs, the financial outcome has taken a turn too. Posing a question on Twitter, Seabelo Modibe posted;

This went on to spark a rather important conversation on how much money artists make from music streams. Jumping in on the discussion, Abuti Fill Up shared his own "facts" on the matter;
Nobody in S.A has reached a billion streams and angilwi. Im just saying, that would mean that the person got a 9 million rand pay out just from streams. Not starting an argument, just giving the facts. https://t.co/MQzhv40CHl

Furthermore, Cassper went on to share how he secures the bag, also giving advise to possibly aspiring musicians;
I own my music so i still get a big chunk from just selling music but the big coins are in corporate brands and live shows. That's why it is important to keep your brand clean. Don't behave like a hooligan. Street cred don't pay bills. https://t.co/3ydrMVNLaE
