If you were to pay $20k-$100 for a song or be convinced to pay upwards to $300,000 to finance an album, wouldn't two big conditions prior to paying be "I want the work to be good" and "I want it done ASAP"?
What good is song released privately when the original goal of Mabanga was to bring recognition to the captains of industry among listening community? For example, Papito Mbala and Tesor Ngando were made celebrities in London and Geneva respectively overnight because of hit songs to their name.
There are so many financed works from most artists in both Europe and DRC just sitting idle.
