Kagiso Segone (38) has won a certificate of appreciation as a Hip Hop artist during the Merafong City Music Awards. • Also read: Help Kagiso reach his music dreams When Kagiso won the award, the first thing that came to his mind was how emotional the moment was. 'It was a great feeling, but it was also an emotional moment just to hear my name being announced. I didn't know how to feel because no one has ever honoured me in this way. I felt so honoured to be recognised for my work and dedication as well as my contribution to the music industry after more than 20 years of hard work,' Kagiso said. I would like to say I am truly humbled by the community's overwhelming support, as they have been pillars of strength throughout my painful yet beautiful journey, and I will be working harder to make sure that I continue to make them proud.' After winning the award, Kagiso celebrated with his friends. 'Winning this award has proved that I made the right choice by choosing to follow my dreams. I have impacted many people, and therefore, I have fulfilled my purpose. It makes me happy to know that my music is making a difference in people's lives,' he expressed. He hopes this recognition sends a message to the community. 'I am a winner, and I am worthy of their time. Their support is adding value to my career.' Kagiso will hang the certificate on his wall so that he can see it every day to remind him to keep moving forward despite facing difficult challenges. He is now focused on recording, releasing and promoting new music and he will also shoot music videos, attend interviews and perform. He is planning to embark on the 1000 Super Fans Campaign, where he will tour and launch his music. He will be part of the Vibration Taylor Show, which will involve stage performances and a fashion show. At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
