“Love Wins’ was released at the beginning of 2021. He explains the inspiration behind the single:
“Love wins was birthed on the onset of covid-19 when I saw the need for a fun-loving, happy song during the crisis that left so many saddened, lost and especially with the political climate in America where I live and around the world I felt that so many people needed a reason to laugh, dance and sing again. It inspired me to get into the lab, write and produce Love Wins. The song is about love, all different types of love, love through inclusion, self-love, self-acceptance and how through love we can win again. I wrote it and it was produced by the incredible Carl McGrier in Los Angeles.”
Does he miss home in Sunny South Africa?
“Oh yes! I miss home but LA is great too. I’m so blessed to be able to follow my dreams and so grateful for this moment. I grew up in the beautiful town of Bosmont, Johannesburg and was raised going to the theatre and being influenced so much by music.
Shortly after my first singing job, I Won Coca Cola Pop stars to become a household name in South Africa and a part of the winning group. I’ve since been travelling and performing on stages around the world, including the 2010 World Cup in South Africa which was a great honour and I have also been headlining shows on cruise ships worldwide.”
What comes next after “Love Wins”?
“I have my Full EP titled “The Love Project” on its way, with 2 music videos ready to be released for my fans. I have plans to travel around the world promoting and performing my song once borders reopen, hoping to perform at Pride events across the globe. I’d also want to positively influence the younger LGBT community, and aspiring performers to be whoever they are and love themselves wholeheartedly.
