His debut album bends the Hip Hop rules by bouncing from genre to genre and between styles; each track its own perculiar island of inlfuence. What has evolved is a phenomenal fusion of Hip Hop and Rock, Hip Hop and Pop, Hip hop and RnB, Hip Hop and Dance (House) "yes you heard me right... Hip Hop and Dance" emotionaly response, resulting in a rapper who draws comparison to Hip Hop and other Genres.

“I grew up in different places like, Nkandla , Denny Dalton, Ngudwini, Mandeni, Eshowe, Doringkop and Stanger growing up I was exposed to different people learning different things in life.
Since I never had a chance to be raised by my own parents I really love the people who were devoted in making a man out of me without them I would not have been where I am today.
My dream was to be in an advertising industry and Marketing Management but due to financial constraints I couldn’t go for my tertial studies.
I started to work at Sanchez Spur in Stanger I worked as a waiter for three years and after that I a job at Foschini till to-date.
Despite the all the problems; I always knew that music will be my savior, I fell in love with music in 1995, I used to listen to different genres of music the likes of the O Jays, Manhattans, Abba, Wilson Phillips, Maskandi like, Mfaz Omnyama, Hhash Elimhlophe, Kwaito stars like Spikiri, Tkzee, Zola, Oskido etc.
I always wanted my name to be mention with the legends Lucky Dube, Brenda Fassie etc.
I began writing songs, we formed a group called The Dogs but we had no resources to help make it through; though people began noticing us we never got any sponsorship so the group collapsed.
When I started to work at Spur met new people and I met guy by the name of Thami who owned Tamizo Records at the time, he introduce me to different rappers / MCs we worked with the guy by the name of Mnqobi Nxumalo (Nqozilla) we recorded a song that gave us an exposure then from there I worked with Rasheed Mhlongo (The Renegade) we did couple performances and my name began to be known around Stanger.
I like to thank my friends who gave me a support and they made me realize that I can be whatever I want to be they were organising performances for me, I bumped to the guy by the name of Philani Buthelezi a.k.a.Pilato who introduced me to Stanley Nyokana A.K.A Stano the founder of STANO PRODUCTIONS and that’s when everything, my future began taking shape.
I signed at Stano Productions and began working on my first album titled “Dream” and have since then changed the course of my life.
I was then exposed not only to rap hip hop but even to rock and roll, pop, and dance which now is what my debut album is composed of.
That’s how I got be known as the versatile rapper because of different genres that make up make up my Album “Dream”.
My inspiration is coming from the likes of LIL WAYNE & JAY- Z.
Mr. S. Nyokana is a man who find new me, he showed the other side of music that I never knew, today I can sing and rap any genre because he told me not to be a stereo type rapper and taught me how other genres are made of and how I can adapt into them to maximize my target market.
Today I can boldly say I am a rapper, Rock n Roll, Pop Dance Artists.
My goal is of course to win the most coveted prestigious
awards in
