BACKGROUND INFORMATION \n\n\n\nThe traditional music industry is not bad, but I wonder why many artists always issues with their record labels especially in Africa, well, I’m related to thousands of them, and I can understand their experiences. Many of them ends up depressed while still in contract, because the label determines when to drop their songs, some are already broke cos they are not making money and can't be in the street to hustle because of their reputation, many are secretly looking for a way out, this experience is what I can also relate with. Which made me realize, lowkey everyone wants to be independent, but the question is how?\n\n\n\nThis is where we come in.\n\nOPxM Is a Web 3 Afro beat community driven to introduce / Onboard / Educate and create a home for web 2 Artist to thrive in the web3 ecosystem.

This project will send a message to the world that Optimism cares about Afro-beat Artist and want to make creating of audio NFTs easy for them which they can always build & earn their royalties on Optimism.\n\nII.
