2.one hit wonder-u get a lucky break...a one tune deh a road...it get airplay....ur name gets call....u get one or two
stage show....but yet still u may struggle to find the melody or the right key to make a next hit....and it becomes more stressing
than b4

3.Yu have a likkle hype-U got two, three more songs on the road....ur name gets call more...ur trying to be consistent in the lime
light...ur getting some more small shows...u may even be in opening acts for sting and u can call for sum small island shows..u have a hype with a one
