partnership deal with Sony.
In an interview with HitQuarters label head and producer J.R. Rotem

DIAMOND PLATNIUMS
There was a time he was involved in illegal gambling; all
that for the money to record his first studio single. It was not easy for him
to save enough money for one studio session and fend for his family with the
money he made. He was forced to sell his mother’s gold ring secretly and use
the money to pay for his session. As it was his first time in the studio, the
song was not an immediate hit but it opened doors for him and marked the
beginning of his journey as a bongo flava music artist.
