It features Isaiah Misanvu, The Mith, Xtacy from Ghana, Suunsound, Zesmore, Pryce Teeba, Flex D’ Paper, Del Boy, Play01, Byg Ben, The CEE. The creative and productive minds behind the Album were; Rey Macc, Isaiah Misanvu, The CEE, J-Wats, Baru, and Right Beats.
On My Own started taking shape two years ago when J-Wats debuted “Holding The Light” as the first single off the album, which was produced by Rey Macc and Isaiah Misanvu (Executive Producers on the album).
It was later was followed by “Man Of The Year” which officially introduced him to the industry.
