In an interview with Arts&Culture, Tajbhabi explained that after being enrolled at a university in South Africa, where he was pursuing his degree, he never imagined music would win his heart. The young man found so much solace in composing his own music. However, he said he had no expectations behind the craft but only found success in the industry after networking and crafting his art. “I am now an internationally renowned record producer and composer. My music is streamed in over 160 countries. I have had the pleasure of producing for Nasty C, working with Anatii, Zakes Bantwini, DJ Tira, Xolani from Freshly Ground and even getting an opportunity to submit beats for Justin Bieber to write on. My music has been openly supported by the likes of Black Coffee, Shimza, Da Capo and Keinemusik playing my records around the world and even caught the ear of Drakes label OVO.
These opportunities are incredible but have immense pressure to deliver as a producer. Working on my mental, physical and spiritual health has been my priority this year,” he proudly said. Tajbhabi’s last release was titled, Overcome, and was a collaboration between the singer, NaakMusiq, and hit producers Kususa. He said it was released on one of the world’s biggest record labels in England called Defected Records. He added that the song caught international traction when Shimza began his performance in London with the song last year. Prior to that song, he said in June, a special record titled, Soul of my Soul, was released as a fundraiser for the ongoing genocide in Palestine. He said the song was made to create awareness about the 76-year-old apartheid government of Israel and their long-standing torture of the people of Palestine. “All money generated from the songs streaming and purchases was donated to what’s left of Palestine through the NGO “Gift Of The Givers”.
