Speaking on the programme, the Managing Director of the firm, Kandi Olatunji, said the show themed: ‘The Next Eagle’ will give the youth a place to channel their energies and do something worthwhile whilst being empowered economically, socially and morally.

“There is a lot to look forward to from this very show; it promises to be one of the most mind-blowing shows and it has a reality aspect that will show what actual musicians go through in the industry and equip these talents to face those challenges,” she said.
