“I won’t lie, I listen to Fela’s music a lot and by my assessment, his works are one of the greatest compositions you ever find in the world.
“You cannot get bored with his works. So, Nigeria has produced great musicians with good music and I am hoping we leverage on this fact.
“Music is very important and it is beyond what is being pumped out to the society. It is beyond entertainment because it connects to the mind and has effect.
“This is why we are committed to support the gospel music industry, especially young talents from RCCG.
“Personally, I love rap music to a fault and I am happy we have a rap artiste under the label.
“I pray God will help us in achieving our dreams by supporting talents in producing works that will affect lives positively and win souls for the kingdom,” he stated.
