The ‘su fre wu Nyame’ artist disclosed that the strategy has worked for him so he decided to maintain it.

“I can even come and step on your foot if you are not paying attention to the work. When I say serious I’m telling my team to be serious. They need to be serious.”

On where he gets his energy from, he said “if you know that the job is your business and you know that you’re doing this business then you must be serious about it. I like the business and I’ve to entertain them. If somebody pays money to come and watch you, you have to pay back,” he said.
