I never expected it to pick up so fast but based on the amount of work we’ve been putting in, it was only a matter of time. Respect to every CD man, sound system selector and media personality that give me a strength but I have to personally shout out ZJ Johnny Kool for being the first radio jock to play the song, him is a DJ weh believe inna youth” – I-Voltage added.
