The 30-year-old is passionate about creating music, but he refused to let that confine him or make him only renowned for his musical endeavors.
Mokgosi then had the notion to open a TikTok account with the sole purpose of entertaining.
One of the videos he posted later went viral, resulting in him gaining followers.
“Since I was a young child, I have always wanted to be a performer. I began with music after falling in love with a music instrument and then became a producer.

“But as society has changed and social media has become more popular, I didn’t want to limit my activities to just making music. This is why I made the decision to create a TikTok account that allowed me to express myself freely.
“Along with making people laugh, I made the decision to make comedy content with the intention of destigmatising common and yet sensitive issues. It turned out that my audience related to my work, so I guess I succeeded in my goal.”
He said he has been able to raise awareness about the mental health concerns encountered by young people.
