He employs engineers from the best schools in the world. Brothers and sisters, success is not dependent on your level of education but your level of determination and hard work.

Since everyone was talking about this mixtape, I decided to give it a shot, and to be honest, I was wowed and left asking for more. Of course, I am many things but a rap analyst; However, there is always a first time! Below is the fruit of my listening ears; 1) Finally - this track is everything that good lovers of Music In Nigeria would adore;  motivational, super cool, and of course, it showed how far MI has come in redefining the rap game. 2) The Box featuring Pryse- This was another excellent track done with the fast rising and Prysrless 'Pryse'.
