King Monada Has No Plans to Leave His Kasi

Despite his growing fame and success, King Monada, the talented songwriter and music producer from Limpopo, has no plans to leave his home township. Known for his hit songs Malwedhe and Lemenemene, the 31-year-old artist, whose real name is Khutso Steven Kgatla, remains deeply connected to his roots. In a recent interview with Daily Sun, he shared how he stays humble and grounded despite his rise to stardom.

"Dedication and commitment conquer everything. I always believe in the Almighty to protect and guide me," Monada explained.

When asked how he manages to stay connected to his roots, he emphasized that his kasi plays an important role in his songwriting. "I never dream of leaving them behind. They're my strength.
