Here at mulika entertainment we believe in supporting talent the best way we can, and we
are ready to invest our time in this for the future of the talented young boys
and girls we have around. Unfortunately we have great talents in our hoods that
nobody knows and these boys and girls go unnoticed yet they have mad potential
to make it in life through their God given talents. Well for our new and fresh
segment this week we met with a pipeline based hip hop artiste who takes us
down through his music career. He tells us how music made him loose his
girlfriend! Enjoy as you support talent.
