The amapiano star tweeted that it was time for artists to care about what drew them to the industry in the first place, which was music. They must forget about the icing on the cake, fame.

Lady Du also begged the stars to keep up with the digital world, which music has completely taken over.

"Guys, educate yourselves on streams and the music business I beg you. Everything you see on the internet is not what really happens in real life. You'll give up on serious careers thinking you can make this work, entertainment requires a smart mind. Don't chase fame."

Lady Du believes that perfect and loyal management is important
