JVuli Gate Singer Ntosh Gazi leaves SA permanentl­y for greener pastures. Multi-talented actor, filmmaker and musician, Ntosh Gazi real name Ntokozo Soko has made quite a name for himself in the Amapiano genre. After appearing on ‘John Vuligate’ by Mapara A Jazz, he went on to feature on Diamond Platinumz’s sensationa­l single, ‘IYO’. Before releasing his solo singles, his presence in the game was not by mistake and it seems as though, right now is his time to shine.

Speaking to Daily Sun, Ntosh made it known that he’s left South Africa permanentl­y to the United Kingdom, and for the first time, he feels satisfied and excited. “Initially, I was on tour with my team but I have made the decision to permanentl­y stay here. This is because within the two months I have been here, I have managed to build a huge market this side for amapiano,” he said.

Secondly, I have been presented with endless good opportunit­ies and I have already grabbed a few. As a South African artist, I know the struggles of the industry. I’ve been there and I wasn’t going to let opportunit­ies pass me by.”

The star no longer begs for gigs like he did in SA, and his career is doing very well in the UK. “I already do Amapiano Fridays at Smade Lounge in London,” he added. Ntosh said his family members are aware of his relocation and he’s excited, as he’s finally escaped those envy of his success, as they attempted to block him from securing wins.“I don’t really blame them because there are too many artists fighting for the same spots. Fortunatel­y, an opportunit­y presented itself for me to spread my wings.”
