Many African artists have found success in the mainstream music market in the USA lately. However, all over the motherland young artists are carving out the music scenes within their own countries, creating new genres and redefining what it means to be an African artist.<\/p>\n
One such artist is reggae\/dancehall singer, songwriter L\u2019titude of South Africa. Born in Kings Town, Kgomoco Keeabecoe Moticoe is the son of ex Robbin Island political prisoner Jacky Israel Lehlabapudi Ntuane.<\/p>\n
The South African artist\u00a0got his first taste of music as a child when he sang and dance at school events and talent shows, where he won most of the time. After high school, he attended college in a city called Bloemfontein and got exposed to a local music movement, shows and studios which were mostly hip hop dominated. However, when he got a chance to perform, he sang nothing but reggae music which he discovered at the age of 15 when he heard the music from artists like Lucky Dube, Peter Tosh, Joseph \u201cCulture\u201d Hill and Bob Marley.<\/p>\n
Presently, L’titude is said to be one of the best reggae\/dancehall artists in South Africa. He won the prize for best upcoming reggae artist in South Africa at the DRMA Awards held in Soweto in 2015 and has not looked back since. To date, he has worked and collaborated with artists from Italy, Thailand, Europe, Jamaica, USA, Zimbabwe, Uganda, Nigeria and other African countries.
