Ntobeko “Sishi” Sishi, a well-known actor from Mzansi Magic’s Gomora, embarked on his musical journey earlier this year. Despite his recent foray into the music industry, Sishi has been crafting songs since he was just 13 years old. His passion for music predates his acting career, making this transition a natural progression of his artistic expression.
Ambitious Project for 2024
Sishi has set an ambitious goal for the start of 2024. Ntobeko “Sishi” Sishi plans to release a new song every week, resulting in a total of 52 songs by the end of the year. Each song will be accompanied by high-quality visuals shared on social media platforms, providing fans with a comprehensive audio-visual experience.
Artistic Expression through Music
For Sishi, music is more than just a form of entertainment. It’s a platform for him to share his personal journey and experiences. Unlike acting, where he portrays different characters, songwriting allows him to tell his own stories. He believes that the best way to express himself is through lyrics, singing, and melodies.
Evolution of Musical Style
Sishi’s first body of work was heavily influenced by R&B and pop genres. However, he is now exploring a wider range of sounds in his new music. He aims to grow creatively and move away from the pressure of creating radio-friendly music. His current focus is on telling interesting stories through what he describes as “wavy” music.
