TLee addresses African Throne tour critique

One of Cassper's fans, HlengiWay, took to Twitter to share her concerns about the lacklustre promotional efforts for the African Throne tour.

She mentioned that as two of Universal Music Group's biggest signees, the label needed to ensure the proper execution of marketing and promotion for the tour.

"As 2 of UMG's biggest hip hop brands, and as a first of its kind, UMG should've done more in terms of marketing."

TLee responded to the tweet, stating that UMG has nothing to do with the tour and that it's an effort between Family Tree, Ivyson Entertainment and Bridge Entertainment.

He further took responsibility for the unimpactful promotions and promised to push harder while also announcing their sold-out Nairobi show.
