BUDAPEST – When he first burst onto the music scene in 2016, Lethabo Sebetso was quite intentional with his actions. For example, he applied for a travel visa. The reason? He knew he would travel the world one day. But, of course, he didn’t expect everything to happen so soon. He released the mega hit Ke Star in 2020 and it went on to achieve gold status, which means it sold over 25,000 units.
Sebetso was born in Ga-Rankuwa, near Pretoria in 1996 and in his childhood played soccer. But it was his artistic talents and ambition that propelled him to success. Monde Twala, the Senior Vice President and General Manager of ViacomCBS Networks Africa, said there was a shift happening across Africa that has captivated the world. He add that young Africans should use the strength of art to help develop the continent.
