I had a good chat with the president because I've gone through a lot of troubles during my career and I know where the young talent will have the trouble. To assist them access the highest level of recording, the best camera cheaply so they can be able to fairly compete with the top artistes in Africa.

“I went through the trouble of having music that I thought was good but yet when you compare our sound to the songs that are being consumed, the quality of music in East Africa has been so bad in a very long time.
“My first time to get a big song, 'Love you Every day', was when I worked with Sony in the UK. From that time, I started to understand the reason the songs in East Africa don't go beyond the world. When I came for Coke Studio in Nairobi, I also sealed that issue. It is so important for us to mind about the quality of the music. A song will not go far because people may throw it out because of the quality," Bebe Cool opined.
