However in the mix of things Mzansi has been keen to know the reasons behind his exit. Well a few months after his bombshell it has been established that the award-winning actor called it quits so that he can concentrate more on his music career. Mosese jumped into the music scene as Howza, a hip hop and kwaito artist, in the 2000s.
“I am looking forward to refocusing on my first love, which is making music. I have been back in the studio for a while now, working on new material,” Mosese said.
He also indicated that his exit came because of his need to grow and have new challenging on-screen characters.
“Being on a soapie for an extended period of time doesn’t always allow one the freedom to work on other projects and that is what I want to do. I have not released new music in a long time. I am excited about how much the game has changed since the last time I put music out.
“Now more than ever before, the world is literally just one click away. I am, of course, going to continue pursuing my acting career. I am ready for more action roles.”
