The past few days have been filled with tension and South Africans have been keeping up with it all on SA’s top news channels. Upcoming artist Tunez RSA saw an opportunity and grabbed it with both hands, promoting his music on live eNCA!

MEET TUNEZ RSA

Thando Ngubeni aka Tunez RSA is a 24-year-old rapper from Soweto. He is the co-owner of Kippiza Entertainment and has always loved music. He started rapping from a young age. 

He has been interviewed by a number of radio stations across the country, including Voice of Wits (VOW FM), Trans Africa and Touch HD, about his music and saw fit to use an interesting approach for his music to have a wider reach.

TUNEZ SEIZES AN OPPORTUNITY!

While reporting on looting at Jabulani Mall in Soweto, an eNCA anchor on the ground pulled Tunez RSA aside to ask what he was doing at the mall. 

Tunez passionately answered,

“I’m here to promote my music! I’m Tunez RSA! Mr International Kippiza! Shoutout to Kipizza! We’re doing this sh*t for the love of the music. Higher and higher by Tunez RSA.”

He also used the opportunity to make it clear that he was not looting.

TUNEZ’S BIG BREAK!

Tunez RSA’s clip made the rounds on Twitter and caught the attention of rapper and owner of hip-hop blog Siya Metane popularly known as Slikour.

He reached out to Tunez RSA saying that it would be cool to get his music on his online radio show for new music, OnLife Radio and asked him to send his song via direct message. 

Tunez officially released his song Higher and Higher on Slikour’s hip-hop blog. He has rubbed shoulders with one of Mzansi’s biggest rap stars, Kwesta, and had the opportunity to open for him at his album launch in May. 

Before anybody knows it, Tunez RSA will be a household name.
