"I wrote 'Impilo Yangishitshela' based on normal everyday situations that people often find themselves in. We all grow up with hopes and dreams of becoming successful one day, be it a doctor, lawyer or teacher. However, that ends up not sufficing.

"Different situations are often the cause of this, such as money to further one's studies. Sometimes they do end up at university; however, they do not land jobs at their respective careers."

His song has gained prominence on social media, especially TikTok, where fans share their desired careers but now do other jobs to survive.

Lessons learnt from making music as a newcomer

Like many artists, navigating the music industry as a fresh face was difficult. Luve shared that patience got him through:

"The main thing I learnt when it comes to the music industry is to be patient. I know that there are many challenges that might come one's way, but they need to make sure that they do not drain your strength. You must focus on achieving your goals."
