King A.T.I

The first time he busted on the scene in My African Dream talent show with the verse Dintshang, it was already written in the stars that A.T.I was going to be a star.

Ironically My Star singing talent could not spot nor see the shining flair and that is when he broke out of the shell. A.T.I managed to scoop position two in My African Dream against all odds and during the time when dance groups were driving the audience crazy. He was still a Form Five student in 2008 and that did not stop him from pursuing his African dream. A.T.I went on to break into the music industry with his first hit single called Skeleton and people were aware that there is a name A.T.I.

From the beginning A.T.I did not hide the fact that he was inspired by Vee Mampeezy and the fact that he lost a deservingly award to Vee at some point did not stop the respect he has for the latter. And possibly it is still a surprise that the two had not collaborated yet. Now back to the flower that was still blossoming inside A.T.I, just like other artists trying to find their way into the unwelcoming music industry, he faced a lot of challenges.
