Of all the numerous songs he has released he mentioned that the hit single \u2018\u2018Starring\u2019\u2019 where he featured Robocop, made its way up to the top soon after he added the name Nfana Mosotho to his name (Solenjah).<\/p>\n<p>He noted; \u2018\u2018I pray, this is me. \u201d Sing together, Roots and Leseli laka are his latest songs. He said \u2018\u2018Roots\u2019\u2019 is one of the songs that brought him fame in the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n<p>He said he started singing in English, but could not clearly express himself, then he shifted to Sesotho. \u201cSince I changed to singing in Sesotho I saw a lot of progress in my music and that is when I gained a lot of popularity,\u2019\u2019 explained Tilo.<\/p>\n<p>He continued that in 2019 he had his first biggest performance at Marabeng at an event that was hosted by Bofihla Neko (Lilaphapha) and Mavele where there was a huge crowd.<\/p>\n<p>For him this marks the moment his name made it to the music records and he affirms that \u201crubbing shoulders with veterans\u201d was the best choice. He further picked that as long as one has the support in the music industry the music stands to remain strong.<\/p>\n<p>He said the music is business, thus needs consumers. \u201cTherefore money is essential because it buys everything, such as beats, studio sessions, music videos and other materials needed in music,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Solenjah Nfana Mosotho also pointed that the best professional producers that suit their voices are limited and also money is required in order to get those best professional producers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/lesotho\">Lesotho<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Lesotho.
