I am always about new challenges,\u201d he shared.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI once said I would never do a reality show, but now I have done one. Since then, I have been rethinking everything I ever said I would never do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The rapper admitted that timing played a crucial role in his decision.<\/p>\n<p>As his career evolves, so does his willingness to explore spaces he may have previously avoided. When the opportunity landed on his desk, it felt aligned with his current mindset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is one of those things I would never have done if it was not my own. When I got the call, it was exactly what I needed for where I am in life right now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Having built a reputation through chart-topping hits and a distinct influence on modern South African hip-hop, Tshego understands that stepping into the world of outspoken commentary comes with scrutiny.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am ready for the new challenge. I am ready for the hate, I am ready for the love. We just keep doing what we do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 4 -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#ready #hate #love #Tshego #joins #Podcast #Chill #Network<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Tshego is stepping away from the recording booth and into the podcasting spotlight after officially joining the Podcast and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":51434,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-51433","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51433","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51433"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51433\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":51435,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51433\/revisions\/51435"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
