He revealed that he invited some of his industry friends to be part of his show and some refused.“Some declined, without even an explanation… I found myself thinking ‘I have done this and that for you, you owe me this and that…’” he said.

If somebody decides to support you, big ups, if you decide to be there for somebody…don’t it because you expect them to return the favour.
