“I mean there’s a lot of reasons that made me take a break from the industry, some being the Covid situation, and I had a situation where I had to rearrange whom I wanna work with in the industry, and yeah I just didn’t feel like I was in a space to push music,” he said.
The rapper said that he decided to work with Kabza because he’s a fan of his music.
“The reason I choose to work with him is that I am a fan and there was a time we had a conversation and he also revealed to me that he was my fan, and to be honest it wasn’t really a decision we just wanted to play around different music and because we got along, we turned this into a project, that is how Speak and Vrostaan was born,” he added.
Their project is set to be released before the end of this year.
“Yeah, now I’m fully back in the industry, and I have over 50 songs that I’ve been recording with Kabza, which might also turn out to be another project.
“I’m lso back to pushing some hardcore hip-hop that my fans know me of, so yeah, kuningi,” added Kwesta.
