Tsholofelo Mokhene musically known as Felo Le Tee got to share some of the convergent thought processes that has led to him composing his musical projects and his latest EP, ‘The III Wise Men’. He further went on to express that he is a firm believer in musical sounds evolving and changing over time, this is because musicians always create and recreate.

Responding to a question of what kind of valuable advice he would give to upcoming artists who want to breakthrough into music when it comes to signing to record labels, Felo Lee Tee said, “One of the advice is just weigh your the options. Look at all the options. Does it work out for you, is it going for to work out for your brand? Read your contracts, read your agreements so that you have a clear understanding of what is it that you actually signing into,” he said.
“Just have a clear understanding and vision of where you want to be as an artist, producer before signing so that you can have a clear understanding of how you want to help you. Unlike just signing for the sake of signing and you expecting everything to just be okay. It usually doesn’t work that way—you need to put in the work,” he added.
“Because you signing doesn’t mean you mustn’t put in the work. I think the mistake some young people make is they rush to get signed. It can be a major label or small growing label that has the hype. It goes into a lot, there’s cons and pros into signing and you have to understand yourself and your direction,” Felo Le Tee concluded.
