Drake album, Certified Lover Boy.
Masego is a singular talent and surprising presence who cites 1930s Harlem big bandleader Cab Calloway as a guiding spirit and was mentored by DJ
Jazzy Jeff. Vibe hailed Masego as a "self-taught saxophonist, pianist, singer, and producer here to give an old soul sound a fresh new take in today's hip-hop climate." He had a breakout hit with his 2018 debut album, Lady, Lady, which included the hit single "Tadow." With more than one billion combined global streams, the song is certified Platinum in the U.S., Diamond in Brazil and Gold in Mexico. XXL observed, "Masego has created and curated a new wave" and NPR
Music praised him as "one of music's most promising chameleons."
