“East Africa I am sad! I weep for my people. I have so much sadness in my heart. Bongo flava has always been East Africa’s pride but for now it has died. Every Tanzanian artist now singer Amapiano” Eric stated.

Eric added that the singers are no longer unique because they adopted the South African genre and forgot their culture.
