“This EP marks the commencement of an extensive global tour, solidifying his impact on the music industry across continents. Kicking off the EP is the pre-add track, Molili, released on June 23. Initially conceived by myself and Batundi, the song took shape with Lokau Kanza’s captivating hook. To infuse an authentic African essence, Batundi enlisted the talents of Nana Attah, whose stellar performance and poignant lyrics gave the track a whole new depth and meaning,” said Mogashoa.
