“My interest in music started around the age of 10. I mainly listened to underground music and hip-hop,” said a humble Sipho.
Inspired by producer, DJ Phoo he persevered, in spite of ‘not feeling music’ at one stage.
“In October 2014, I became re-energised and focused and was able bring out tracks which have done well. It’s a good feeling that my music is out there.”
Sipho now intends to work with musicians from Umgababa and Felikise and ‘share their knowledge’.
