Being entrepreneur is the full view of the field, thus becoming an "Atrepreneur" is to an artist benefit and they need a team, opportunity comes to them that yearn and various fields are filled and jobs created, hope is given to one aspiring to become and their coming brings more to fruition in the marketplace."
This is principle He serves by and calls it the "Growth-code." Helping artists become their own boss and become artrepreneurs and contribute to the economic growth of South Africa our country as we are the children of the soil.
A rainbow nation we are with much on the heritage of each nation to learn and understand our diversity as a people, good news is that the art of music creation has the power to make thin the lines that separate us and the fusion of our heritage through the music creates a work of art to express the dignity of the word ubuntu through the music and human interaction during creation process.

He is releasing his genre-defying album of love songs which gives a glimpse of his experience in the music industry as both artist and composer under the pseudonym "Maneh Music" soon. The audio-presentation is full of love songs and purposed in advocating for hope for women, as the lyrical content is to the favor of a gentleman attitude for men and ways to show affection to a lady and see her as queen and nothing less, or distortion to the image, as will be depicted in the musical short film to follow as a series of music videos unraveling the tale from true story experiences....
