IN this episode, both Manvir Victor and Datuk Kamil Othman dive into music and the differences between older and new artists. They start with Coldplay and their collaboration with Korean powerhouse BTS, before making comparisons with the likes of David Bowie and the Rolling Stones. 

If you think that the music from two different genres and generations are vastly different – this conversation might move your perspective.

This episode also shares the philosophies of national marketing and how a 'switched on' Finance Ministry can help lay the foundations for a cultural promotion being exported globally.
