I think it's nonsense. I think it's arrant nonsense, like what's that? Sometimes, I'll be on Twitter and people will just tweet some things, and I'll be like these guys have started taking that thing again.
Wande is the reason I'm singing. "Mushin to Mo'Hits" is the reason I went to studio to record music. Falsetto, harmonies, melodies, and all that. Wande is clear o, please.
