Bebe Cool confessed that he spent close to $1 million, and at this point, he is worth more than that.
“You kept hearing ‘Break The Chains. ‘. But I just wanted to have a trending topic and make sure that by the time the big budgets flow into the country during campaigns, I was on top of the industry. As simple as that, because it gives you the power to run the finances. You have to learn how to think. Do you know how much I was worth if I’m to be paid for the work I did? I no longer do things directly, I go through the corners,” he said.
