changed for me. Basically I met some friends who introduced me to a

lot of hip-hop and R&B which was not what I was familiar with.

A few years later in Grade 12 I took part in the annual school’s talent

show and I won best performance and best singer which made it to the

school’s hall of fame. I then went on to become a contestant on ‘Jam

Ally’ which was my first Tv appearance. I then did coca cola popstars,

idols and Yotv just to mention a few and 14 years later I’m still at it and

going strong.

I have done international collaborations via social media and even got

an online distribution deal from a company based in New York.

I am now working with artists from Mozambique, Ghana and the USA

just to name a few and I am also a brand ambassador for Boi Boi apparel

and Halifornia from Canada

My advice to young and upcoming artists is to go to school and get

educated about your craft and know the business aspect of it because

that is what will give you longevity in the entertainment industry.

Even if you don’t have any formal education, the internet has a lot of

information on how to elevate your career so never give up on your

dreams. Keep at it and keep learning.
