Maphorisa emerged in the late 2000s and was signed to Kalawa Jazmee, a record label co-owned by his mentor and friend, Oskido.

After establishing a name for himself through his work with artists like Uhuru, Wizkid and Drake, Porry became a force to be reckoned with his vibrant style of production and passion for music. And he plans to take it further:

"I’m going to change the game for good now, permanently. Just watch."
