While some younger musicians have found it difficult to grab Sarkodie and Stonebwoy's attention, Cina Soul established that there were no hiccups in working with them.

"King Sark came through the same day. He was sent the song today, we got the verse by evening," Cina Soul said as she obsessed over Sarkodie's work rate.
"Its a blessing to be able to have these features. They did it for me without charge and any stress with clearance or whatsoever. Zero charge," she added.

Speaking to YEN.com.gh, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh weighed in on the frenzy surrounding Cina Soul's album,

"One thing that unlocks collaborations is mutual interest. You can tell from Cina's account that despite the pedigree of Stonebwoy and Sarkodie, they were willing to collaborate because they were interested. About the financial bit, one thing we must know in the music industry is that funds are not always required up-front as long as as split sheets have been signed and that's what I beleieve is at play here."
