After being silent for sometime in the music industry Illa Penboy has on a Facebook post announced to be returning to the music industry “THE FINAL GOAT BACK IN THE STUDIO....” Illa wrote. He confirmed this through a Facebook video where he is seen mingling with youngzII, Viruss and SubJamz in the studio. The video was later removed from the platform.
Being Eswatini’s top hustler, Illa has been in the industry for over two decades releasing hits such as Tjwala bami and Hhaa Mboo produced by SubJamz and has also been the host of a number of events such as Fill up Mogambo and Gugothandayo. Early this year, the artist claimed to be the Greatest Of ALL Time (G.O.A.T) in the entertainment industry which sparked a debate among influencers and spectators of the industry in the country.
The return of Illa is not something that was expected since the artist embarked on ventures totally incompatible with the entertainment industry. Not only venturing into charity, the artists aspired to be a Member of Parliament in the previously held parliamentary elections. However, his return may be what the industry needed with the lack of local talent promoters in the country. Illa has, not once, hosted events that only catered local talent on it entertainment line up which brought hope to the young and upcoming artist. He has branded himself Mr. Successful events.
The big question is will Illa survive the competition? Ever Since his silence, very good, young, energetic and talented artists have oozed up to dominating the industry. These artists have blended well to the new kind of rap and style which Illa will have to master in order to compete. The founder of the donate bread campaign is expected to release a track soon and he podcasted a video on Facebook flowing to some of the lyrics.
