He also produced and was the brain behind the Desperate Chicks, a popular all female music group and so many other accomplishments.  Uche Okoye @UchePOkoye leads him in a series of questions as he narrates his journey in the music industry and reveals some never heard stories behind some of his successes.  "Exploring The Southeast Creative Industry" is a Twitter Space series by hosted by Ama Egwu (@AmaEgwu_) and Uche Okoye (@UchePOkoye) Fridays at 7pm.
