Hlatshwayo is also submitting his EP to radio stations and will soon be shooting a music video for Khotha in Orlando East and Diepkloof.

“I would like my music to reach as many people as possible so that they know about my craft and how passion and hard work has carried me throughout the years. Besides being in the music industry, I also have my own clothing label called Londal Vandal which sells T-shirts and caps. I sell them as my side hustle.”
