Quotes
[edit]- A lot of people want to just get a job or be on TV but we are trying to break that culture and show them that they can create. If we isolate ourselves in the industry, we will never grow
- It is the attitude many artists in South Africa have, that all you have to do is wait until someone gives you that opportunity, but that is a difficult. We need to stop this open handed and entitled attitude and empower ourselves
- If I did not have that it would have been hard for me to break into the industry. I believe that the only way to grow as an industry is for us to come together and share skills
- If we isolate ourselves in the industry, we will never grow. I believe in the power of collaboration, that is what got me so far, because people recommended me to other people because I had the potential.
- Women may benefit from social media for a few years but as soon as they get to a certain age the industry forgets about them and they look for the next big thing. Their careers then become obsolete because they didn't grow their craft and relied too much on social media,
- My only problem is that because platforms to showcase your talent is there, people don't take time to refine their craft. They are going to get lost. Financially and professionally lost.
