During an interview on Radio 47's Baze na Manucho show on August 30, 2023, he emphasized the importance of aligning the message in a song with the artist's current situation for it to resonate and become a hit truly.

According to Africana, the key to creating impactful music is ensuring that the song's message reflects the artist's personal experiences and circumstances. "For your song to hit, the message should go hand in hand with the situation you find yourself in," he stated.
