"When you get into Firebase, they don't sign you using paperwork or binding contracts like what other labels do. Firebase is a school; If you feel you have graduated, you are free to go on with your life but it will always be there. It's like a house and I want to call upon all youths who want to be like me to join Firebase because it is for everyone," Zex told Spark TV.

Zex Bilanglangi now works under his label Geng Geng. He has not only invested in music but also in activism and charity.

"I'm a creative activist and a concerned human who looks forward to empowering youths, giving them entrepreneurship skills and see that we help each other. My management is a whole big team," he said.
