Music Career
By the age of six, he already appeared on stage to express his talent in music. He tried learning to play many instruments, but due to an element of impatience, he never quite mastered even one. This included the guitar, piano, violin, and drums. When he was asked why he chose music as his career path, he said "Simply because I fell in love with it."
Since 1990 (2014)
Tshego has decided to re-release his project “Since 1990” back up for streaming on his Soundcloud page and for free download[7]. The project, which was originally released as a free album in December 2014, features original music by Tshego and a remix of ‘The Light” by London artist SBTRKT. A bulk of the production was handled by Tshego himself with assistance from Yaw on a few joints, and Naught Wun on “Can’t Save Them”. “Since 1990” has minimal appearances from Tshego’s close-knit family, through Veezo, Nasi Tau Tona and Wunda.
“Since 1990” includes the fan favorites “Out Here”; “23”; “We Okay (In The Dark)”; and “Fomoza”, which has been synced in the 2015 movie “Happiness is a Four-Letter Word” starring Khanyi Mbau, Mmabatho Montsho and Renate Stuurman.
Tshego has officially let this one go, for his day one fans and new fans he has gained since joining Family Tree, to focus on his new project “Since 1990 2”, which will feature collaborations and production from other artists and producers.
“Since 1990 2” featured new material, with a single in the works, titled “Tell Em Say”, to be released before the end of January.
Pink Panther (2019)
Before releasing Pink Panther, Nadia Nakai was the first person he said she would be on the album, but she was not on the album. Later he apologized and said "Things happened". He features King Monada, Riky Rick, Kwesta, BLACK. CASS, Tellaman, Focalistic, Thabsie and Frank Casino.
