In an interview with YFM’s Haruna Babaginda on Y97.9FM’s Reggae Republic Show, he shared that he chose this project with M.anifest to “catch up with the new generation” through a fusion of the old and new vibe rhythms.
“I will be releasing an album on Monday or Tuesday. I collaborated with M.anifest on this album. I wanted to have Kofi Kinaata too but I met him very late”, he told Haruna Babaginda.
