Amapiano music has taken the music industry by storm, and one of the rising stars of this genre is Kgotlello ‘Sayza’ Machoga.
Hailing from Alexandra, Machoga has been making waves with his unique sound and infectious beats from his album, Amagomora. His love for music started at a young age, as he was heavily influenced by the likes of the late Killer Kau, Emtee and Casper Nyovest. As the melodic and rhythmic sound of amapiano resonated with him, he knew that this was the genre he wanted to pursue.
“I started loving music from a young age and amapiano has always been something I wanted to pursue because of its beats and ability to make young people dance. I feel content when I see people enjoy and dance when I perform, it makes me feel good about myself and that I have done my job,” Machoga said.
Amagomora has been making waves on the music scene, and it has introduced him to the music industry and gained him recognition as one of the most exciting new artists in Alexandra.
“People started taking me seriously when I dropped this album and it also made me to be confident in my work. Now when I approach established artists in hopes of one day working with them, I make them listen to my songs and some of them have applauded me… which encourages me to work harder.”
He believes that the road to success cannot be climbed alone.
“I always collaborate with people because I like taking my friends with me wherever I go because they played an important part in my musical journey as they are the ones liking and reposting my music to be seen out there. They have always been there for me, supporting and encouraging me so I think it is only fair that if I win, we all win.”
Machoga said he always aimed to wow his audience with his energetic and dynamic live shows because his goal was to become one of the biggest names in amapiano. His dream is to introduce the amapiano genre in countries such as China and Japan.
He aspires to one day open an orphanage or shelter that helps and rehabilitates people because he believes giving back to the community that raised him is one of his responsibilities.
