Talking about a humble artist, go to Youtube and google Metrobeatz RSA! Bongani Mossetia Macebele (20) is originally from Giyani – ka Khakhula, Limpopo Province but currently residing in Gauteng Province – South Africa. The rising super star attended school at Muhawu High School.
“I started making music at the age of 14, after my mom bought me a laptop. Many people do know that I produced for Penny Penny, Baba Harare from Zimbabwe and Queen Vosho from Mozambique at the age of 16. Music is in my blood, my songs are inspired by what happening in life and my surroundings. My mother, my manager and people around me assist in sharing some life stories”, he said.
Self-acclaimed Prince of Xigaza, started with Mapiano genre before switching to Xigaza music. He has lot of Mapiano songs and released Xigaza EP (6 songs) with a lead single titled “Xitori na Xitori” and 3 singles including hit title “forever wena” which has a video that played at Channel O and Mzansi Magic.
“The love am getting from my fans is amazing, I am growing every day and people appreciate my music. My dream is to work with J John because he writes real music, not hype or trends but songs that last longer. Many people like to exploit music, there's always unnecessary desire from my peers to have beef. I think we tend to forget that we are who we are because of the fans”, added Metrobeatz.
Upcoming and aspiring musicians can learn from legends such as Dr Thomas Chauke, Dr Joe Shirimani, Benny Mayengani etc, they respect music as an art that can really bring food on the table.
“I am currently working on an album (12 – 16 tracks) with a title “Boti” as a lead single. My advice to all artists is to keep pushing, find who you are and stick to it – never give up and always know that the beginning is always hard” he concluded.
