He is known in the rap world as ‘Navigator’ Da Rapping Pantsula.

“However, I managed to establish my own record label called Navigator Entertainment (Pty) Ltd.

“As much as I have a passion for music, I have to take money from my own pocket while people expect me to perform for free.”
His first official music video, “Klap your Hands”, was shot in June 2018 and it was aired on Ikwekwezi FM radio station.
“Hearing myself on the national radio station was a blessing and I felt like a super star.”
