“Cameroon is one of the world’s most
educated countries, yet opportunities are scarce. “Chop No Dey” is a war-cry
against the hurdles that many young Africans still face to succeed – we want to
encourage the youth to work hard and remain determined, no matter what their
challenges are. We worked incredibly hard to get a place in the urban music scene
today, and we do not take that for granted,” explained Vivid, one half of the
group.
