BY PRESTIGE MUNTANGA SOUTH AFRICA-BASED Zimbabwean rapper and founder of Highlife Movement Studios, Terrence “Mterry DA Rapper” Khumalo said he was committed to uplifting up-and-coming artistes to further their music careers in a foreign land.

Khumalo told NewsDay Life & Style that he has discovered that many local artistes are giving up their careers in music due to economic hardships and lack of opportunities.

“My aim is to give rising artistes, especially Zimbabweans, a platform to grow their music careers. Many people fail to prosper in the industry because it is hard to get exposure here, especially when one is from Zimbabwe,” he said.

“Events that I host under The Highlife Movement Studios have helped a lot of up-and-coming artistes from both Zimbabwe and South Africa. I am still looking forward to helping more artistes to reach their potential in the music industry.”

Mterry DA Rapper added: “Under the Highlife Movement, we have also hosted live shows around Gauteng, teaming up with up-and-coming musicians who are also keen to get exposure and go mainstream.”

He said there were upcoming partnerships with fellow artistes and top brands.
