Afro pop singer Lesego Reetseng set to make fiery comeback at ShowThemFlames Music Night
After more than a decade away from the spotlight, celebrated musician, songwriter and performer Lesego Reetseng — simply known as Lesego — is making his long-awaited return to the stage.
The Klerksdorp-born artist, widely known for his chart-topping hit Viva Afrika Tau featuring the Jaziel Brothers, is set to light up the stage at the inaugural ShowThemFlames Music Night on May 30 at Hotel Sky Sandton in Johannesburg.
In an exclusive chat with TshisaLIVE, Lesego opened up about his time away from the music industry and what fans can expect from his big comeback.
'Like in any profession, one needs to take a break and rest a bit, and I felt I needed that opportunity,' he said. 'Music is a gift I was born with — it will always be in me. I've always loved the stage and missed performing for my fans. While I was resting, I was making super great music that I believe is ready to be shared now.'
With a renewed sense of purpose and creative energy, Lesego promises a show-stopping performance for old and new fans alike.
'Expect nothing less than the best from me,' he said. 'A super performance befitting of the love my fans have shown me. It's an amazing opportunity and the start of many great things to come.'
Reflecting on his journey, Lesego expressed deep gratitude to his supporters who've stayed by his side throughout the years.
'Every artist goes through that phase with each new offering, and I'm looking forward to the journey again. I want to thank my fans for holding it down for me — the love you're showing and wishing for me is amazing,' he added.
Lesego's return marks a new chapter in his career, and if his past hits are anything to go by, fans can expect a night of pure musical magic.
