After his time with The Glorious Five, Wizkid who love listening to popular artists like Bob Marley, Sunny Ade, and Fela Kuti set out to make a name for himself. He would like to be popular like these men but would first have to deal with rejection. 

In a studio where top stars at the time did record their songs, Wizkid was prevented from recording. The Point Beat Studio which was owned by OJB Jezreel, saw notable names like 2face and Sound Sultan record their songs. 

Wizkid joined Empire Mates Entertainment (EME) in 2009—a year in which he co-wrote a song for Banky W’s album.

Recently, the duo was featured in a song by Olamide’s former boss, ID Cabasa titled “Totori” which is also a good collab.

Wizkid hasn’t produced a superstar unlike Davido and Olamide, but recently, Wizkid is pushing one of his artists, Ceeza Milli to the world and we hope the young artist does well and be accepted like his peers.

How to Stop Fighting in a Relationship (10 Working Tips)

Published

on

If you search for the keyword; How to stop fighting in a relationship, Google will show you more than 400m results. That shows the magnitude at which people fight and try to reconcile.

It can happen to anyone, including you… But why or how?

It is the skirmish of the 100 years: you and your accomplice are insured in an endless back-and-forth.

Between all the back and forth, you can’t remember which one started this specific battle.

All you know is that you’re not going to lose it, not this time. You throw another insult and remind your accomplice how he forgot to take out the trash a week ago.

Your turn, you think. If you want to make an online relationship with random people then you can chat with strangers on Omegle TV and OmeTV.

While satisfying at the time, bickering can break the foundation of your relationship. Assuming you’re fighting with your partner more and more often, addressing why is essential.

Certainly, all couples fight sometimes, but you would instead not make this an ordinary propensity.

“Personal connections are continually difficult because of their closeness and power,” couples instructor Geoff Lamb tells Brides.

“Things we experience in friends and co-workers seem to affect us when our accomplice does them.

Difficulties can often turn into fights, but they don’t have to. Fights are about winning or losing, but the experience of most couples is that in any case, when you win, you lose.

Why Do Couples Fight?

In case you are continually arguing furiously, even the most insignificant thing could start a battle. The reality of the situation is that there are many vexing issues that drive couples apart.

“During my training, I’ve heard so many arguments about the correct method of running a dishwasher that I wonder if it wouldn’t be smarter to do the cleaning manually,” says Lamb.

How to Stop fighting in a relationship

“There are topics, [that is] fundamental to discuss when you are seeing someone living respectively, that can easily turn into battles.

These are sex, money, housework, life plans, children, the couple, and parents. in law, work, time together, time apart, and responsibilities.”

Sheep maintains: “Discussing these issues can surely turn into battles.

It’s helpful to note that one of the motivations behind why [these issues] do so is that they mean a lot to us in our connections.

This implies that we really have to discuss them with our accomplices, but maybe we can find a useful approach to do this.”

How to Stop Fighting in a Relationship: 10 Working Tips

Do you need a more pleasant relationship?

While you won’t be able to control the competition completely, there are some methodologies you can use to reduce the intensity.

We should investigate 10 clues that you can try before your next fight.

1. Adopt a positive outlook

Not everything is pessimism. “Contending shows that something is not directly in your relationship,” says Lamb.

“That ‘something’ is vital to you, as is your accomplice. Most of us rarely have fights with people who don’t mean much to us.

Feel these advantages.” Once you understand the problem, you can hope to solve it.

2. Quit needing to be right

This is a problematic propensity to break, but basically, you should give it a try.

“Most fights are about proving to our accomplice that they’re out of line, outrageous or pointless for not doing what we think they should do.

Instead of fighting about this, why don’t you try asking for what you need? ” since it is essential for you?” proposes Cordero.

3. Take a moment to chill

“Problem subjects are testing because they produce a lot of feelings,” says Lamb. “The moment you feel great areas of strength for an approach, especially outrage, find a space with no one else to reflect on things.

Outrage usually comes when we have a need that is not being met, we don’t feel borrowed attention, taken seriously, acknowledged, or understood.

When you get together with your partner, focus on what you want.”

4. Stay on point

It’s tempting to deal with a relationship like a court official.

We need to build an argument against our accomplice and to do so, we occasionally amass ‘evidence’ from previous encounters to help our case,” says Lamb.

“This makes everything so much better than it should be.

They either have to recognize that they’re out of line, that they’ve always been out of line and can never be right, or they need to fight you.”

Rather than recapture the past, stay in the now and stick to the present point.

“Focus on the issue that’s bugging you right now and find a way to ask for what you want, without making them feel bad if they don’t give it to you.”

5. Talk about your feelings

When you’re in the middle of a dispute, you can fall into the trap of blaming your partner for everything.

Instead of focusing on your messed-up thought process, focus on your feelings about Cam Brasil. “The important thing is to convey how you feel instead of denouncing your accomplice,” added

6. Breathe before saying something mean

Your words don’t necessarily have to use lethal force.

“Calmly inhaling gives you a chance to contemplate why you need to say something bad,” Lamb makes sense.

“Usually we express bad things because we feel hurt and we need to hurt back. Express something like, ‘I feel so hurt, I need to say something subverted.’

We have been hurt and we believe the other person should be hurt for them to understand how that feels. Using the kind of phrasing I’ve described you can do that without kicking up a bit of dust.”

7. Remember the good times

Assuming you’re frantic, you may not have remembered how much your accomplice means to you.

“Build a supply of positive feelings in the relationship, including why you love each other,” says Lamb.

“Different things [that] can go into this supply are great times together, snaps of serious closeness, and spontaneous thoughtful gestures.

Take advantage when circumstances get tough.”

8. Show that you understand your partner

There are different sides to every story. Investigate things from your accomplice’s point of view.

“Convey how you might play your partner through their activities, finding out what they might think we should do and doing it,” recommends Lamb.

“The risk here is to rethink our accomplice, who is bound to delay a battle.”

9. Listen to what they have to say

Stop pondering what you need to say and pause for a minute to tune in. “A decent option for rethinking is to clarify the pressing issues and pay attention to the answers,” says Lamb.

“While tuning in, most of us focus on what we’re going to say next rather than what’s being said. In a problematic discussion, we usually also focus on whether what’s being said is valid.

We don’t really we’re paying attention to our collaborators and are determined to uncover them.

Pay attention to your accomplice’s perception as that, their experience, without worrying about whether it’s dispassionately obvious or substantial.”

10. Consider couples therapy

Obviously, if you can’t stop struggling, you may need the help of a teacher.

“While I trust some of the advice above will be helpful, trying it isn’t simple when your relationship is caught up in winning and losing battles,” says Lamb.

“Two or three specialists can help you find an alternative outcome. They are prepared and experienced in discussing all sides of the connections.

They will need to help both partners in a similar way to make [the couple’s] relationship everything it is.” it could be. ”

Conclusion

Building a relationship that will last forever is not easy, there are some obstacles on the way and you will feel like quitting almost every day.

These 10 tips above can help you stop fighting in a relationship and therefore, build a healthier one.

Don’t forget that if you have been trying all your best but to no avail, try consulting a relationship therapist or expert before you call it a quit.

An African adage says; there is no way teeth and tongue will not fight each other, yet, they have never stopped being together.

No matter how much you guys fight in your relationship, things can still get better. Don’t give up yet!

  3. Email Marketing
  4. Start Blogging
  5. Social Media Engagement
  • GiveAway Beats or Instrumentals For Free

Giveaway beats are a great way to promote your music and get some free exposure. It’s also an easy way to build hype around your new tracks.

People love free stuff, so this is a surefire way to get your music out there and gain some more fans.

This will help you gain exposure for your own tracks and give you something to offer in exchange for their promotion of theirs.

This method also works well if you have instrumentals or beats with high royalty rates because people will go crazy over the fact that they can get their hands on them for free.

  • Offer a Discount On First Beat Purchases

drive traffic to beat store - offer discounts

In order to drive traffic and sales, you need to offer a discount on first purchases. This will help build loyalty for your brand and compel people to buy more from you.

With this strategy, you want to be sure that people who are interested in purchasing your beats will be able to do so at a low price point.

The best way to accomplish this is by offering a discount on their first purchase. Make it so that if they buy one of your beats, they will get an additional 50% off their next purchase.

This means that if they buy two beats, they will get 100% off their next purchase.

This is an effective strategy because it gives people who have been thinking about buying beats an incentive to do so now instead of later or never at all.

It also creates good word-of-mouth marketing as more people become aware of these deals and tell their friends about them.

  • Email Marketing

Ever heard the term “The money is on the list?”

Email marketing is one of the best ways to drive traffic to a beat store.

It’s free, easy, and effective.

It is the most direct way of getting your customers’ attention. If you’re running an email list, then you can send out emails that contain content that will intrigue your audience. You can also use email to promote upcoming releases or special discounts.

You can use email marketing to encourage people to buy beats online in exchange for exclusive access to a new release or extra content.

For example; if you have a new album coming out soon, you could offer subscribers early access by signing up for an email list and then sending them an exclusive link when the album drops.

Ai tools like copy ai can help you in creating high converting copies for your email marketing campaign and in turn, get your subscribers to take action.

That should come in handy if you don’t know how to write compelling emails.

If you have an email list that’s already growing and you’re looking for ways to develop it, even more, consider promoting your music store by sending out an email campaign every few days or so.

You can promote new products or upcoming events and make sure that you’re reaching out to people who are most likely interested in what you offer.

  • Start Blogging

You can drive traffic to your store by blogging.

Blogging is a great way to reach out to the people who may be interested in your music, but who aren’t yet ready to buy it.

If you blog regularly and write about topics that are relevant to your target audience, people will find you and trust you enough to give you their email address.

You can then use that email address to send them information about upcoming releases, promotions, and sales.

Here are two ways to drive traffic to your beat store through blogging:

1. Write about new releases and promotions

If there’s something new coming out from a beat store, make sure it’s listed on your blog first. You don’t want other websites stealing all the attention from yours!

2. Promote discounts and events

If there’s an event or sale at a beat store that you want people to know about, make sure they know!

Post it on your blog as well as social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

If you plan to use blogging as a channel to increase exposure to your store, one important thing to take note of is SEO.

Learn SEO and use it to your advantage.

  • Social Media Engagement

When it comes to driving traffic, there’s no way you’re leaving out social media.

Social media engagement is a key to driving traffic to your store. Use social media to promote your own business and your music, including Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.

Music lovers will want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to engage with them on their preferred networks. Keep in mind that not everyone uses the same social media platform so make sure you post on all of them.

You can also use social media as a way to announce new releases or other news about your career as a musician. If you have an album coming out soon, for example, post about it on Facebook and Twitter using the hashtag #MyNewAlbum.

When posting about new projects or releases, make sure that your posts include links to the song previews on your blog or website, or SoundCloud page so fans can preview them immediately after they view them in their feeds.

2022 UTME Result Checker: How to Check Your JAMB Result Easily!

Published

on

UTME RESULT: A lot of 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME candidates have been trying to check their results especially, those who did their exams on Friday 6th and Saturday 7th of May, 2022.

When will JAMB release the UTME 2022 result? If the examination body released the results, how can I check my result without visiting any cyber café office? In this blog post, I will tell you everything you need to know about 2022 UTME.

Have the 2022 UTME Results Released?

No! As of the time of writing this blog post, the 2022 UTME results haven’t been released.

When will the 2022 UTME Results Be Released?

Some blogs are peddling unconfirmed news such as saying that the result will be out on the 10th of May 2022. But the 10th of May passed and they shifted it to May 13th, 2022… Yesterday was May 13th and nothing has been released so far.

They’ve again shifted the release date to May 16th, 2022 ?‍♀️

But would the 2022 UTME result be released on May 16th, 2022?

No one knows! Except for God, JAMB, and her stakeholders.

Why has JAMB Haven’t Release 2022 UTME Results?

The reason is simply that they’re still checking the 2022 UTME results and CCTVs for examination malpractice.

A piece of trending news about why JAMB hasn’t released 2022 UTME Results is because those who sat for the exam on May 6th and 7th, 2022 passed the exam beyond expectation and that’s why JAMB is trying to investigate everything thoroughly before the results will be released.

But is that true?

Well, I see no sense in that. Why would JAMB predict and expect some candidates to fail the Exam they’ve prepared for as if their life depends on it.

Important: ASUU Keep striking like thunder! Here are digital skills you can learn to make money online as a student

According to a report by TheGuardian, JAMB said they would not release the results “until it receives reports of examination malpractices” because 60% of the results came in after the exam has been concluded.

Maybe that makes sense. It may be possible for students to engage in examination malpractice and yes, let’s them check all CCTV to fish out the bad eggs.

JAMB’s registrar, Prof. Oloyede added they will not be creating any kind of confusion this year.

Imagine if 60% of the results are released and the remaining 40% of candidates are waiting on God before they see theirs, that’s going to be a premium confusion indeed.

So, bro, keep calm. The results will be released soon. Stop giving yourself heartache whenever you see these online blogs baiting you into clicking their post link by saying the result is out.

If the result is out, you don’t need these blogs’ confirmation, you can know when it is released yourself.

Where to Check if the 2022 UTME Has Been Released?

Without giving yourself to anxieties, you can confirm the news when JAMB released the results on the following platforms:

  • JAMB Portal: It is currently inactive but when the results have been released, the portal will be opened automatically.
  • News Platforms like ThePunch, TheGuardian & Vanguard: When the results have been released, JAMB will send information to these News platforms for dissemination
  • Check Threads: You can follow JAMB’s official handle on Twitter, check the MySchool thread

Stop giving yourself heartache, wait… Let the information come to you.

If the results have been released, the next thing is checking.

How to Check 2022 UTME Result

The moment you have been waiting for bro ?
