Rising star Halo Yagamis foundation in music was formed thanks to his father and way before his digital streams, collaborations and growing recognition.
Born Monde Thuthukani Ngcobo, the 30-year-old artist who hails from KwaMashu in KwaZulu-Natal credits his musical development to his earliest years, where his father an avid saxophone player laid the foundation for his taste and emotional connection to sound. The maskandi-meet-neo-soul singer chats to Sowetan about his musical journey so far.
I fell in love with music early in life because my father used to play the saxophone. I saw his records in the house, and I was like, What is wrong with this man? Why does he have these big CDs? At that time, I didnt know they were called records. I was like, What are these big CDs? And why are there a hundred of them? And my mother had cassette tapes.
