When you are being managed as an artist you have less stress because they handle everything all I do is to do my part . Management will tell you from rehearsal , outfit , transport , Salary and location . I am happy where I am and after a long road of being exploited in the industry by my previous managements I know GOD sent RDE to save my career and my family .
