Major Star

 

Back Chat

 

The Back Chat show was joined by, Malawian artist Major Star (Noel Mhango), formally known as Blacksta. He is an Afro Dancehall musician, business owner and co-founder of Malinganya Empire.

 
He came to Cape Town temporally to push his music on an international level, but he decided to stay and start up his own business “Dreadlock City” in Claremont, which is now expanding with another store opening up in Observatory, this is helping Major Star support his music career.

 

When Covid-19 hit, it slowed down his business. Although, still doing house calls to support his business, he felt he could do more; this gave him the opportunity to devote more time to his music. During the national lockdown, he made his first song “Coronavirus”, which later followed up with a music video; this would also be the first music video he has ever posted.

 

During the time of Covid-19, focusing on his music, releasing song after song, Major Star’s fan base started to grow, giving him a lot of exposure as well as his business “Dreadlock City”, motivating him to keep the momentum going.
