As they put it, featuring Yo Maps on a song is the biggest investment a Malawian or Zambian Artist would make. Maps has proved to stand out on his or other musicians projects.
Probably it’s worth it, having to pay $10,500USD just to have Maps put his voice on your song and his face on its visuals, not a bad investment after all. generally speaking you would get pay back in return, as they say “Numbers, don’t lie”.
To put it out, Maps isn’t just a Zambian Icon NO! he is fast becoming an African giant, his influence is remarkable, that can’t be taken away from him. He has had so much impact in Malawi and Zambian music industry combined.
Kell Kay, has generally benefitted from which ever investments he made on featuring Yo Maps. To speak openly there has never been a song by Malawian artist that had accumulated over 8 Million views in just 2 months. Kell Kay’s “Bana Pwanya” has just managed to break that record.
Not only so, Yo Maps’s featured Tay Grin on “So Mone” the song that now has over 14 Million YouTube views in just 7 Months. And Grin also has won, not only regained his relevance but also through the influence that the song has had over Zambia and Malawi it has pushed Taygrin to finding love from the neighbors hence earning himself “Mutale” as the love of his life.
