Unsigned Afrika: To
solve a problem. I currently manage the brand. We I and my c.e.o with a couple
of board members deemed it fit to give back into music and the entertainment
industry by going grassroot level to search for those who cannot afford or be
heard in the industry who at least possess this good talent and is worth
investing on, that has been the drive. A lot of good untapped talents are
wasting in Nigeria and Africa at large

coin the name unsigned Afrika
