018 Simple Strategies To Scale Your Music Career Faster with MC Hype Ma'ana Music Show

    • Performing Arts

This week I wanted to get a different perspective of an artist at the start of their career. We often talk with those that have had perceived success but this week I wanted to share with you the challenges and successes of someone at the beginning of their journey.

Myself and Mustafa, aka MC Hype speak about about making mix tapes with mix tapes, why marketing is so important as a musician, how he got into producing, the pros and cons of Soundcloud and his experience of Distrokid over Tunecore and CD Baby.

Mustafa Kamel Mohamed started off his entertainment career in the UAE as the most dominant MC since 2013 in the events scene, and now this Dubai-based DJ and Music Producer is known as Beatz By HYPE. He started creating music in 2016 to share with friends on SoundCloud for fun and after exposing himself and winning many beat battle competitions he gained the confidence needed to release his first single in 2020 during COVID-19 Pandemic. His songs are shaped by his experiences of living in Portland, Oregon(USA), and diversity came from him growing up as a 3rd culture kid in Dubai. To describe his vibe, its blend of urban flair with a touch of uplifting nostaglia, but he isn’t scared to turn up the energy to give you that volcanic eruption boost you desire. HYPE is also the founder of WASTA Radio, Dubai’s first podcast which featured music mixes & local artist interviews.
