Kruna said when he was producing Thebe's album with other producers in 2014, they made him realise that he can still release his new album.
“I just recorded a lot of music in my studio and many of them are not released and others are released on my new album with new tracks,” he said.
Kruna said his new album showcases his versatility, and how he's able to blend genres such as Afro-pop, kwaito, and hip-hop.
He said he is also focusing on nurturing new talent in the music industry and is working on an EP, titled Merchandise and Fashion, where he plans to feature up-and-coming artists.
“Now I'll focus on producing more music and producing more new talent in music," he said.
