Quotes Passion, Love and the Calling led me to do music, my love for music began when I was a young boy in Grade 4. When I started I was a rapper and then a year later, in Grade 5 I joined a “Isicathamiya” School Group, where I participated in competitions and won numerous awards for Best Isicathamiya Group. When I got to High School I stopped singing because people didn’t know my music, it was hard because I was really talented but I had not really discovered myself and gained enough confidence back then. Collaborations that I have done in the past, Yoh! The one with my brother Big Zulu (VUMA DLOZI) will always take it for me, because that was my first feature that made waves in the music industry, plus the concept of the song was too deep in the way that I was shocked at the fact that it became that big.
