“I don’t need an overseas job, I’m not from there. If they want to see me they must come here. That’s where all these things started because we’re all going there, they are not coming here. And who are we impressing when we go that side, South Africans who went that side to work?” reported ZAlebs

"True however even Black American music stars in the 60s and 70s used to come to this side to push their music. Until things got hectic on this side. The aim is to export our product. Nigerians performing for their countrymen overseas were able to grow their music to foreigners."
