However, Ykee Benda came out and defended the album's price saying that he spent a lot of money in the promotion and production of this project.

The album is coming to Ugx 150millions because it has 18 songs ,it was mastered by over  five people and mixed by over four people;I have to pay all of them plus the trouble of making the collaborations happen was not easy .we have sofa shot only 5 videos so this tells the heavy costs.
