The Umama hitmaker’s recent project Isibuko has captured many audiences as it consists of pressing real-life issues that are being faced by the black community every day.

In a recent interview shared on Slikour On Life Instagram page, Sjava gave a backstory and what inspired the song “My Life” featuring Emtee and Lolli Native. The rapper said that the whole song was inspired by the late Kwaito star Mandoza. “The whole song, ‘My Life’ was inspired by Mandoza’s vibe and aura,” he said.

The rapper further said that his fans are very much aware of how much Mandoza meant to him and he still looks up to him even now. “My followers know how much Mandoza meant to me. I used to look up to him and still look up to Mandoza up to now.”
